Causes and Symptoms
- The gas valve is closed.
- The burner cap or the burner head is assembled incorrectly.
- There is moisture or debris around the burner cap
If all burners won't ignite or there is no smell of gas, there is a problem with the gas supply. Check if
the gas
valve is closed.
If the burner cap or the burner head is assembled incorrectly, it may not ignite.
Moisture or debris in the burner cap, burner head, spark plug, or heat sensing rod can prevent ignition.
If the burner hole (nozzle) is clogged by debris, it won't ignite.
Try this
All burners won't ignite
If the [clicking sound] is heard but the gas won’t ignite when you turn the knob, check if the gas valve
connected to the gas range is turned on.
If the gas vale is turned off, turn it on.
If the gas won’t ignite with the valve turned on, turn the gas valve on and off 3 to 4 times and then try to
ignite the gas.
Check if the gas has been shut off by the gas circuit breaker.
LG Electronics doesn't offer a repair service for a gas circuit breaker.
A single burner won't ignite
Check the installation status of the burner cap and the burner head on top of the gas range.
If the burner cap or the burner head is tilted or is not seated fully, reinstall it so that it is level.
Check if there is any moisture or debris in the burner cap, burner head, spark plug, or heat sensing rod.
If there is moisture or debris, remove it using a cleaning brush or a toothbrush before using the gas range.
If the burner hole is clogged by a foreign object (rice weevil), it won't ignite.
Poke the hole 5 to 10 times using a small needle to remove the foreign object.
At this time, don’t poke too hard.
