Answer

Joshua, normally you wouldn't "hear the gas being fed" to the burner, You may want to recheck and make sure you have the proper pressure, no kinks or sharp bends in the supply lines, first. Check and make sure all the venturi holes(openings) in the burner tube are clean and not obstructed(especially the area around the ignition point and travel holes around the tube. The DSI spark module has a built in safety circuit, if the igniter tip, isn't reacting to the flame(small flame) it wont signal the module that the flame has ignited and the spark module automatically shuts down . Check to make sure you have a good, proper and "solid" ground to the range. Check the gas valve solenoids for proper resistance (215 ohms, center terminal to each outside terminal) after a couple of attempts to ignite. If all is OK, replace the DSI spark module.
