Viking cooktop gas unit ignition clicks on all burners when I use

Electric gas igniters sometimes get stuck in one position causing a clicking sound. The clicking sound that you hear is the electric arc that is pulsing from the igniter conductor (wire) to ground (the gas burner). It receives power from the electrical outlet that the stove is plugged into.
Residue from food and sometimes cleaning products may be preventing the igniter from producing a spark (Arc) to the base of the burner. This is a common problem that occurs when the stove has been cleaned or food is allowed to build up. Make sure that the igniter and the burner base are clean and dry. This will help with proper operation. Oven cleaner and a small tooth brush may be used to accomplish this. Another problem with ignition may occur if you have too little (touching) or too much space between the igniter and the base of the burner; it will prevent the burner from igniting. You should only have a little more space than the thickness of a nickel between the burner base and the igniter. A good “blue” arc from the igniter to the burner base is optimal. If this doesn’t work, you may need to replace the electric igniter module. Good luck.

One of the electric burners on our induction cooktop is misfiring and making noise. Who can fix these things? Is it better to buy a new one?

I recommend to buy a new one, induction cooktop prices have come down a lot and there are good ones available for about $1000. FOr me, the only problem with putting a new one in was the hole in the countertop was too small for the new cooktop (Viking has a smaller hole requirement than most other cooktops). So be sure to measure the hole in the countertop before you buy a new one so you can buy one that fits.

One burner of the five will not ignite

You could have a broken wire or loose connection to that burner. Remove that burner and locate the wire to the electrode for your answer. I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

We have a viking cook

Hi,
Some units have a dead man switch, which means that if the filters are not in place correctly the blowers will not operate. Its a safety thing to prevent little ones from dropping toys into a running blower. Double check the filters placement, if the filters are in the proper location than I would look at the power to the blower unit. The vent has two jobs, (1) to raise and lower, (2) to turn on the blower unit once in the full up position. If this is not the case, the upper switch in the vent system has failed. If you already confused, you will need to call a Viking expert to correct this problem. Its not difficult but can be time consuming.
I hope this helps
I have seen this problem twice and found the filters were the problem, rarely replace blower motors.. I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

I have a six burner

there is the possiblity that you have a switch that is stuck as well i had a ge cafe that when you turned on one burner all burners would spark after along process of replacing the spark modulator and every ignitor in the unit i used a voltage meter on the wiring and found that power was going past one switch to the ingitor when the switch had red that it was off after taking the switch apart i had found that on the inside of the switch the mteal contact at one point had arched and was fused to the other side so when you turned on any switch the power would also run through that switch that even though it showed it was off it was still on on the inside of the switch if you are not used to conducting electrical tests on an appliance i would ask that you call a technician this is a very elaborate testing process and should not be carried out by a non trained indiviual if you have any further questions message me back and when we conclude this chat please remember to rank how this opinion has helped as well thanks again
