Repair parts commonly used on Wards gas cooktops

• Power cord. The power cord supplies the cooktop with electrical current for spark ignition.
• Igniter electrode. The igniter electrode produces an ignition spark on the burner head to light the burner.

• Burner switch. The burner switch detects when you turn on the burner valve and sends current to the spark ignition module to light the burner.

Troubleshooting your Wards gas cooktop when burners aren't heating properly

When all gas burner flames are weak on the cooktop, check the gas supply shut-off valve to make sure it's fully open. If the shut-off valve is fully open and all burner flames are weak, you may need to have your gas supplier check the gas supply pressure.

If gas supply pressure is okay, a failed pressure regulator on the cooktop may be restricting flow to the burners.

If a single burner isn't heating properly, check the burner head for a spill and clean the burner head if it's clogged.
