LPG range

[Steeldieman]

I have never had the desire to fire up the range and cook dinner
However recently I got a small pressure cooker and I am trying to ignite the stovetop without any result. I checked for leaks read the manual changed the battery in the igniter. Nothing
The battery igniter will not throw any spark. I tried calling the manufacturer but phone is disconnected. Are these units tested before installation? Again never attempted to start it prior to today
Shame on me I guess

Your problem seems to be the igniter, but first did you make sure you have fuel, valve turned on at the tank, electric switch for opening propane valve is on and you can hear gas escaping when you turn the stove valve on? If all is good then go to plan B, use a grill lighter held against the head you want to light. If the unit has been off and never used it may take a bit to let the air escape the line before propane comes out.
As far as the igniter goes, is the battery in correctly, are the contacts clean? Mine works sometimes and at others it does not so I do carry the grill lighter and start it that way.
