Why your char-broiler is burner not igniting
There is no spark at all at that burner while the others on the same manifold light normally on the char-broiler. Left alone, this usually escalates from one failed part to several.
Causes, in the order we check them
- 01Loose wiring at the igniter
- 02A spark module that's failed
- 03A gas valve that isn't opening correctly
- 04A spark electrode that's weakening
- 05An igniter that's dirty or damp
Quick checks worth doing
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the obvious cause: check whether other burners on the same unit fire normally, which narrows it to one burner or the whole unit. One more thing that narrows it: check the burner ports and the igniter tip for spilled food or residue you can clean off cold. Once that's ruled out, if it still won't spark, the igniter, spark module, or gas valve is at fault, and gas components aren't homeowner-legal work in most areas.
A trained tech works through the char-broiler systematically to pin down what's really causing the burner not igniting. Each of these presents the same way from the outside, so the diagnosis is what separates them.
What St. Augustine's climate does to a char-broiler
A St. Augustine summer is a long one, and a char-broiler runs through all of it without a break. Salt air is hard on igniters, burner caps, and exposed steel, so corrosion tends to show up sooner here than it does inland. We factor that into every St. Augustine call — checking the parts this climate wears first, not just the fault you reported.

Common questions
Answered before you call.
Is the repair covered by a warranty?
We stand behind the work with an 18-month labor warranty and 90-day parts warranty — a recurrence in that time gets fixed again at no cost.
Will you tell me if it is not worth fixing?
You will be told plainly. There is no value to us in selling a repair that will not hold, and the diagnosis is what makes that call — not the age on the badge.
Are the parts genuine?
Genuine parts where the repair calls for them — and an honest answer when a component is discontinued and the only route is an equivalent.
What does the diagnosis involve?
The technician confirms the fault on the unit itself — readings taken, not assumed — then explains what failed, why, and what the repair involves before anything is replaced.
