Gr May 21, 2019 for Model Number Unknown We have a 20 year old Thermadore six burner gas cooktop. Two of the burners have the simmer option. Its stainless steel with a black porcelen surface at the burnners. Two ingnitors are out and we had a service tech come look at it. He pulled it out and searched high and low for a model number. None anywhere on this unit. Can I bring an ignitor in to match up or send a picture of it. We cannot find a ignitor number without a cooktop model number.
1 Answer GR, the model number can be found either under the entire cooktop at the base of the cooktop, or if the unit uses cartridges the cartridge will have a model number under the cartridge itself. The model number will be needed to ensure that the correct information is provided. Read More...
Mike March 11, 2019 for Model Number PCS366US Hi, I have a PCS366US Thermador cook top ( six burner ) that the right front burner does not lit. I can hear and smell gas when turning the knob and it will ignite with a lighter, but the ignition spark does not make noise or sparks. can you please let me know what the replacement part is for the ignition spark and how to disassemble and assemble it back without damaging anything else. Also if you know of any video that would be available for this repair. Thank you very much and appreciate any assistance possible.
1 Answer Mike, The ignition plug for this unit will be part number 00189324. To access this you would take off the burner grate, cap and then there is a venturi in the middle of the burner that will need to be removed. Once removed remove the burner head and you may be able to change from there. Read More...

Philip K. April 06, 2018 for Model Number PGR366ZS The stovetop igniter continues to activate even after the burners lit. Igniter appears to be activating on all six of the burners regardless of which burner is turned on and all six continue to activate continuously. A repairman suggested that all of the igniters need to be replaced however the spark appears to be strong on all of them and Adequately lights the burners. Should I be looking at the ignition control module instead? One of the Q and A's suggest a valve for a similar sounding problem but do not go into detail. I’m not sure what valve the answer is referring to.
1 Answer Hello Philip, I should first explain how the unit is designed to work for a full understanding of why this issue is occurring. For safety reasons the unit is designed to spark all ignitors at the same time in case something were to be miswired and a surface burner is turned on and gas is coming in but the spark is too far away for ignition to occur since the spark is on another surface burner, creating an explosion danger. Since all burners are sparking, this eliminates this possibility. Next, the spark module is actually sensing the very low resistance of the flame and turns off the sparking when the flame is present. If the flame goes out, the spark module senses the larger resistance of the absence of the flame and will try to restart the flame by sparking all surface burner ignitors again. If a spill occurs or an increase in resistance between the metal pieces of the cooktop from normal corrosion, the resistance is increased enough that the spark module cannot sense the small resistance of the flame and will spark the ignitors. Technicians refer to this as "dropping ground" for the surface burners. Correction of the issue includes disassembly of the cooktop and cleaning, (best with sandpaper), between the connection points of the metal parts of the cooktop so when the screws are reinserted, electrical continuity is reestablished between the chassis all of the parts connected. This is so chassis ground can be electrically provided to the burner base for the spark module to sense the presence of the flame will eliminate the sparking. I hope this was not too complicated to understand but if we just told you to disassemble the unit and sand where the metals parts contact each other, you would probably think we were crazy. While the repair may take a bit of time to accomplish, no parts are required for the repair and will reestablish ground to the burner base, stopping the sparking. Read More...
Elena April 04, 2018 for Model Number Thermador Dual Fuel PRSE304/36/48 Using the front ExtaLow sealed gas surface burner causes constant sparking on all burners, which is very difficult to stop. The range manual states that constant sparkling is due to improper grounding or incorrectly polarized electrical power supply. Could it be that the igniter is broken and needs to be replaced instead? The unit has been installed and in the same place for over ten years. Doubt that grounding is the issue. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
1 Answer Elena, This issue would most likely be caused by a switch on the valve that is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
