Common Kenmore Stove problems & what we check
Tap any problem for the likely causes, what is safe to check yourself, and what it costs.
Electric element not heating
Electric element not heating: One surface element stays cold while others work — the indicator light may glow but the element never heats (electric coil or smooth-top radiant only).
Also described as: coil not getting hot, burner cold, element dead, radiant element no heat
Likely causes
- Burned-out surface element (coil or radiant) (electric-only) (Most common)
- Failed surface-element receptacle / "plug-in" block on coil ranges, often heat-damaged (electric-only) (Common)
- Failed infinite switch (the burner control) not sending power to the element (electric-only) (Common)
- Broken wiring or a burnt terminal feeding the element (electric-only) (Occasional)
- Failed control board or relay on glass-top models (electric-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- On a coil range, swap a known-good coil into the dead position — if it heats, the original coil is bad; if it still won't heat, suspect the receptacle or switch.
- Reseat the coil firmly into its receptacle; a loose plug-in is a common cause.
- Confirm the element isn't blistered, cracked, or showing a burnt spot.
✖ Leave to a technician
- Receptacle, infinite-switch, and wiring repairs run on 240V — technician job (shock/arc-flash risk).
- On glass smooth-tops, removing the cooktop to reach radiant elements and the control board is a technician job.

Gas burner clicks but won't light
Gas burner clicks but won't light: You hear the igniter clicking and may smell a little gas, but the burner never catches a flame (gas range/cooktop only).
Also described as: burner won't ignite, clicking no flame, gas stove not lighting, sparks but no flame
Likely causes
- Food debris or spilled liquid clogging the burner ports or the igniter gap (gas-only) (Most common)
- Wet or misaligned burner cap/head sitting crooked on the base after cleaning (gas-only) (Common)
- Worn or cracked spark electrode / igniter, or a corroded igniter wire (gas-only) (Common)
- Weak or failing spark module so the spark is too weak to ignite (gas-only) (Occasional)
- Clogged burner orifice or a partly closed manifold gas valve restricting gas flow (gas-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Turn the burner off, let it cool, then clean the burner ports with a straightened paperclip or pin and a stiff brush.
- Lift off the burner cap and head, dry them fully, and reseat them squarely — a cap sitting crooked is a very common no-light.
- Make sure the igniter electrode (the small ceramic-tipped post) is dry and free of food crust.
✖ Leave to a technician
- If you smell gas that doesn't clear in seconds, stop: shut off the burner, ventilate, leave it to a TSSA-certified gas technician, and if the smell is strong leave the home and call Enbridge Gas (1-866-763-5427) or 911.
- Do not work on the gas valve, manifold, orifices, or supply line — TSSA-certified only.
- Electrode, igniter-wire, and spark-module replacement is a technician job (gas + electrical).
Related: Gas burner clicks constantly · Weak or yellow gas flame · Spark module / igniter failure
Gas burner clicks constantly
Gas burner clicks constantly: The igniter keeps clicking even after a burner lights, or it clicks on its own with every burner off (gas range/cooktop only).
Also described as: igniter won't stop clicking, clicking after lighting, all burners clicking, ticking nonstop
Likely causes
- Moisture under the burner caps after cleaning or a boil-over (gas-only) (Most common)
- A burner cap or head seated crooked, so the spark keeps arcing (gas-only) (Common)
- A stuck or worn igniter switch under a control knob holding the spark circuit closed (gas-only) (Common)
- Food debris bridging the spark electrode to the burner (gas-only) (Occasional)
- Failing spark module misfiring across all burners (gas-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Turn every burner fully off, then dry under the caps — let the cooktop air-dry an hour after spills or cleaning.
- Lift each cap and head and reseat it squarely; a crooked cap is the usual constant-click cause.
- Clean food crust off the electrodes with a dry toothbrush.
✖ Leave to a technician
- A constantly clicking module still energizes the spark — if you also smell gas, shut the burners off, ventilate, and call a TSSA-certified tech; strong smell, leave and call Enbridge Gas (1-866-763-5427) or 911.
- Igniter-switch and spark-module replacement is a technician job.
- No DIY on the gas valve or manifold — TSSA-certified only.

Induction element not working / fault code
Induction element not working / fault code: An induction zone won't heat, flashes an error/fault code, or shuts off after a few seconds — sometimes with a fan running underneath (induction cooktop only).
Also described as: induction zone dead, induction error code, induction not detecting pan, induction shuts off
Likely causes
- Incompatible or off-centre cookware — induction needs magnetic (ferrous) flat-bottom pans (induction-only) (Most common)
- Overheat shutdown from a blocked cooling fan or dust-clogged intake under the cooktop (induction-only) (Common)
- Failed induction coil or power board (inverter) for that zone (induction-only) (Common)
- Cracked glass or a failed pan-detection sensor (induction-only) (Occasional)
- Supply/voltage fault — a tripped breaker leg or loose 240V connection (induction-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Test with a pan a magnet sticks to, centred on the zone — aluminum, copper, and glass won't work on induction.
- Note the exact fault code shown and check the breaker — induction cooktops often run on a double-pole 240V breaker.
- Make sure the under-cabinet vents/intakes aren't blocked and the cooktop has cooled before retrying.
✖ Leave to a technician
- Coil, inverter board, and sensor diagnosis on 240V is a technician job — these store high voltage even unplugged.
- A cracked glass top should be taken out of service; replacement is a technician job.

Surface element stuck on high
Surface element stuck on high: A burner heats to full power regardless of the knob setting, or won't turn off until you pull the breaker (electric ranges/cooktops).
Also described as: burner won't turn down, element only high, can't control heat, burner won't shut off
Likely causes
- Failed infinite switch with welded/stuck contacts feeding constant power (electric-only) (Most common)
- Failed surface-element relay on a glass-top control board (electric-only) (Common)
- Melted/shorted wiring or a shorted element grounding to the chassis (electric-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Turn the burner off; if it stays hot, switch off the breaker to the range and leave it off until repaired.
- Confirm the knob is fully seated on its shaft and the markings line up — a slipped knob can mimic this.
✖ Leave to a technician
- A burner that won't shut off is a fire risk — kill the breaker and book a technician; do not keep using it.
- Infinite-switch, relay, and wiring repairs run on 240V — technician job.
Related: Electric element not heating · Control knob / igniter switch fault
Weak or yellow gas flame Same-day
Weak or yellow gas flame: The burner flame is low, lazy, yellow or orange instead of crisp blue, sometimes leaving soot on the cookware (gas range/cooktop only).
Also described as: orange flame, yellow flame, lazy flame, low flame, sooty burner, uneven flame
Likely causes
- Clogged burner ports from food, grease, or boil-over residue (gas-only) (Most common)
- Misaligned or wet burner cap/head sitting off its seat (gas-only) (Common)
- Air-shutter mixture out of adjustment, or a clogged/partly blocked orifice (gas-only) (Common)
- Wrong orifice/regulator for the fuel — e.g. an LP/natural-gas conversion not done (gas-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Let the burner cool, then clear each port with a pin and brush off grease — a clean blue flame usually returns.
- Reseat a dry, correctly aligned burner cap and head.
- A steady yellow flame on every burner after a recent install can mean the unit was set up for the wrong gas — note it for the tech.
✖ Leave to a technician
- Air-shutter adjustment, orifice cleaning/changes, and any LP/natural-gas conversion are TSSA-certified work — not DIY.
- A yellow flame can produce carbon monoxide — if you have headaches, nausea, or a CO alarm sounds, ventilate, leave, and call 911; have a working CO alarm in the kitchen area.
- No DIY on the gas valve, manifold, or regulator.
Related: Gas burner clicks but won't light · Spark module / igniter failure
Spark module / igniter failure
Spark module / igniter failure: No burner sparks at all (no clicking anywhere), or sparking is weak and erratic across multiple burners (gas range/cooktop only).
Also described as: no spark any burner, igniter dead, no clicking, spark generator failed, all igniters out
Likely causes
- Failed spark module (the spark generator that feeds every igniter) (gas-only) (Most common)
- Moisture or a short in the wiring harness feeding the igniters (gas-only) (Common)
- A stuck igniter switch holding the circuit so the module can't reset between burners (gas-only) (Common)
- No power to the range or a tripped outlet/breaker (the spark needs 120V) (gas-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Confirm the range is plugged in and the outlet/breaker has power — a gas range still needs 120V for the igniters and clock.
- If only some burners spark, dry the cooktop and reseat the caps; whole-cooktop no-spark points to the module.
- You can still light the burners with a long match or lighter while waiting for service if there is no gas smell.
✖ Leave to a technician
- Spark-module and harness replacement is a technician job (mains voltage + gas appliance).
- If you smell gas at any point, don't use a flame — ventilate, shut the burners off, and call a TSSA-certified tech; strong smell, leave and call Enbridge Gas (1-866-763-5427) or 911.
Related: Gas burner clicks but won't light · Gas burner clicks constantly · Control knob / igniter switch fault
Control knob / igniter switch fault
Control knob / igniter switch fault: A knob spins loosely or feels wrong, the burner ignores the setting, or only the click/ignition fires when you turn it — gas or electric.
Also described as: knob spins freely, knob does nothing, switch behind knob broken, burner only one setting, knob won't turn
Likely causes
- Cracked or stripped control knob slipping on its D-shaft (gas + electric) (Most common)
- Failed igniter switch behind the knob on a gas range (no spark when turned) (gas-only) (Common)
- Failed infinite switch behind the knob on an electric range (no/uncontrolled heat) (electric-only) (Common)
- Failed gas valve under the knob — gas won't flow or won't throttle (gas-only) (Occasional)
✔ Safe to check yourself
- Pull the knob and check the plastic collar and the metal shaft — a stripped collar is a cheap, owner-replaceable knob swap.
- Confirm you're pushing in before turning if your range needs it, and that the knob is fully seated.
✖ Leave to a technician
- Igniter-switch and infinite-switch replacement (behind the control panel) is a technician job — gas appliance and/or 240V.
- Gas-valve replacement is TSSA-certified work — no DIY; if you smell gas, ventilate and call a TSSA-certified tech, strong smell leave and call Enbridge Gas (1-866-763-5427) or 911.

Kenmore stove parts we stock
A Kenmore range is another maker's range in a Sears badge -- and the first 3 digits of the model number decode whose. The dominant donors: 790. and 970. = Frigidaire/WCI-built (EOC F-code family: F10 runaway, F30/F31 sensor), 110. and 665. = Whirlpool-built (F1/F2/F3/F5 family), 362. and 363. = GE-built (F0/F1/F2/F3/F7/F9 family), 911. = Roper. We decode the FULL model and serial off the tag BEFORE the visit so the van carries the real maker's element, sensor and control -- Kenmore parts ARE the donor's parts (e.g. the 790. RTD is Frigidaire 316233902, the 110. bake element is Whirlpool WPW10276482), never a 'Kenmore' number.
Signature Kenmore faults

- GE-built (362./363.) element & infinite-switch / sensor faults — one burner dead or stuck; F2/F3 code (common (362. donor))
- Oven temperature sensor (RTD) drift across all donors — uneven bakes, no-heat with a sensor code (common)
- Self-clean aftermath door-lock / runaway trips — F90-family (790.) or F5 (110./665.) after a clean (classic)

Repair or replace your stove?
A simple rule of thumb: if the repair costs more than half the price of a comparable new unit and the appliance is near the end of its life, replacement may make more sense.
A stove typically lasts – and costs $1,200–$2,500 to replace — so most faults under about $450 are worth fixing. We'll always tell you honestly when a repair isn't worth your money.
Keep your stove running
Simple habits that prevent the most common Mississauga repairs.
- Wipe up boil-overs and spills once the burners or elements have cooled — trapped food clogs gas ports and damages coil receptacles.
- On gas ranges, keep the burner ports and igniter electrodes clean with a pin and a stiff brush so the flame stays crisp and blue.
- Dry the cooktop fully after cleaning and reseat the burner caps and heads squarely — wet or crooked caps cause most no-light and constant-click problems.
- On coil ranges, lift the coils to clean underneath and check the receptacles for heat damage rather than dragging cookware across them.
- On smooth-top and induction cooktops, use flat-bottom cookware (magnetic/ferrous for induction) and a glass-cooktop cleaner — avoid abrasives that scratch the glass.
- Keep the under-cooktop vents and cooling-fan intakes clear on induction units so the power boards don't overheat.
- Replace a cracked or loose control knob early, before the D-shaft rounds off.
- Have a TSSA-certified technician check the burner flames, air-shutter adjustment, and gas connections periodically — keep a working carbon-monoxide alarm in the kitchen area.
Servicing Stoves across Mississauga
Local water: Region of Peel (South Peel Drinking Water System) — Lake Ontario via the Arthur P. Kennedy (Lakeview area) and Lorne Park treatment plants; source-water hardness 120–130 mg/L as CaCO3 (7.0–7.6 grains/US gal) in 2025: moderately hard. Honest take: essentially the same moderately-hard Lake Ontario water as Toronto (whose 2024 average was 121 mg/L) — the water is not the Mississauga difference. What differs is plumbing distance: long concealed dispenser runs in big suburban kitchens scale up and kink in ways downtown galley kitchens do not, so slow-water calls here are as often a line problem as a valve problem. Same 6-month filter rule; more line inspections.
Homes here: Suburban-detached dominant: about 37% of Mississauga's ~245,000 occupied dwellings are single-detached houses (2021 Census), most of them 1980s–2000s subdivisions (Erin Mills, Meadowvale, Lisgar) — big kitchens, French-door and side-by-side fridges with door dispensers, and long concealed water-line runs behind cabinetry. The City Centre cluster around Square One is the high-rise exception (about a quarter of dwellings are in 5+ storey buildings): counter-depth and built-in units with condo access rules. The lakeshore (Port Credit, Lakeview, Clarkson) mixes post-war bungalows with newer infill, and garage second fridges are a west-GTA staple.
Parts & timing: Most parts next-day across Mississauga; same-day when the route passes the depot.
Disposal & refrigerant: Different city, genuinely different rules: Peel Region no longer collects large appliances at the curb. A retired fridge, stove or dishwasher goes to a Peel Community Recycling Centre (large appliances and metal accepted free of charge), gets donated if it still works, or leaves with the retailer when the new unit is delivered. Curbside bulky pickup (furniture, mattresses) continues on the regular garbage day but excludes large appliances. Refrigerant recovery before scrapping remains a certified-technician job.
Coverage: City of Mississauga limits — the lakeshore (Port Credit, Lakeview, Clarkson, Lorne Park) up through Erin Mills, Streetsville, Meadowvale and Lisgar inside the QEW/403/407 box; Malton sits northeast by Pearson, reached via the 427/Derry corridor.
Towers & condos: City Centre / Square One towers need a service-elevator reservation like any condo cluster; everywhere else driveway parking and ground-level access are the norm.
