Hi all,
I have a range cooker. The Wok burner's electrode stopped sparking (died out over a period, then completely stopped.
I got a new one and replaced it. It will spark fine when being held (by hand) next to the metal plate that covers the gas outlet. (I say "next to", i mean about 3mm distance") But once I install it (i.e. screw the little metal "handle" into the top of the range cooker), it will not spark unless within half a mm, and even then only sometimes.
It's as if the act of installing it grounds the power and takes away the electricity (sorry if my terminology is wrong). But that should not happen, should it?
Any ideas?
