Common Issues

Stove problems, diagnosed and fixed

Pick what's going on with your stove — see common causes and exactly how we fix it.

Burner won't ignite or element won't heat

Click-click but no flame on gas burners, or coil element stays cold on electric — our most common stove call.

Common Causes

  • Failed spark igniter (gas)
  • Burned coil element (electric)
  • Faulty surface burner switch
  • Clogged burner head (gas)
  • Worn element receptacle

How We Fix It

We test igniter with multimeter (gas) or element resistance (electric), replace failed components, clean burner heads of food debris. OEM parts for major brands stocked on truck.

Burners heat unevenly

One side of the pan is hot, the other lukewarm. Common issue with electric coils or gas burners losing flame consistency.

Common Causes

  • Worn coil element (electric)
  • Partially clogged burner ports (gas)
  • Bad surface burner switch
  • Warped or damaged drip pan
  • Voltage variance to element

How We Fix It

We test element heat output across the pattern, replace uneven coils, clean and clear gas ports. Restore even heat distribution — your cooking gets predictable again.

Sparks or arcing from burner area

Visible sparks, popping sounds, or burning electrical smell — immediate safety issue. Stop using and call us.

Common Causes

  • Damaged element receptacle (electric)
  • Worn igniter wiring (gas)
  • Moisture in electrical connections
  • Loose terminal block
  • Frayed power supply wire

How We Fix It

We treat this as priority — disconnect power, inspect and replace damaged receptacles, igniter components, or wiring. Restore safe operation with full electrical safety test before leaving.

Control knob broken or sticky

Knob won't turn smoothly, falls off, or doesn't engage the switch properly. Usually a quick mechanical fix.

Common Causes

  • Cracked plastic knob
  • Worn valve stem (gas)
  • Failed infinite switch (electric)
  • Loose D-shaft
  • Built-up grease in mechanism

How We Fix It

We replace cracked knobs with OEM matches, swap failed infinite switches, clean grease buildup from valve stems. Stove operates smoothly — no more wobbling knobs.

Stove won't power on at all

No clicks, no light, no element heat — full power failure to the unit. Usually breaker or main connection.

Common Causes

  • Tripped 240V breaker
  • Failed main control board
  • Damaged power cord
  • Loose terminal block connection
  • Faulty wall outlet (rare)

How We Fix It

We verify breaker, test outlet voltage with meter (electric stoves need 240V), inspect terminal block and main board. Most cases: tripped breaker or failed board — both quick diagnoses, fast fixes.

Display or indicator lights not working

Burner-on indicator stays dark, or digital display shows nothing — stove may still function but you can't see settings.

Common Causes

  • Burned-out indicator bulb
  • Failed control board
  • Loose wiring harness
  • Bad surface element switch
  • Display LED failure

How We Fix It

We replace failed indicator bulbs, test and replace control board if needed. For digital displays, diagnose LED panel and swap as OEM. Quick fix, big quality-of-life improvement.

Our washer was leaking and another company quoted me $400. These guys fixed it for half that. Honest people.

Our Bosch dishwasher started making a horrible grinding noise. Tom came the next morning, diagnosed it in five minutes, fixed it the same day. Easy.
