New Maytag MGC7430 gas cooktop leaks gas when lit
First it could be leaking from the control knob when it is on . There could be a leak at the base off the burner letting out gas or on the burner line . You need to get back on to your installer or where you purchased the cook top . This basic gas fitting leak detection .
The electronic lighter will not quit clicking.
Hello, Thank You for using FixYa. I will be helping you today. Did you clean the cook top or spill something? If the switches get wet they will click untill it drys out. If not then one of the switches failed and would need to be replaced. Its the switch that sits on the burner valve.

My electric igniter keeps sparking
Hello, Did you clean the cooktop recently? Sometimes water or cleaner can get into the spark switch causing it to spark untill it dries out. The same if a boiling pot spills. If none of those happened one of the burner switches is bad.
The ignighter sparks but won't
In that case the air-gas mixture is off or flows very slowly. Try to light it up with a match - if you can't then you will have to adjust the mixture from the burners by moving the sleeves. If you can light it up but the flame is very weak then the pressure regulator has failed and it must be replaced.
In either case i recommend that you call a pro, if you can't do a perfectly safe job don't touch it - you don't want a gas leak in your house.
