Mahnrut August 17, 2017 for Model Number Thermador RDSS30 1) is Thermador now owned by Bosch as those parts seem to come up 2) one of our non-Lo burners does not spark but gas is there and it can be lit by match. Over the years (20?) we have had issues with this much used burner but with close attention to cleaning (now it is spotless) we have managed to get it going (never a problem with gas supply). Do you think the spark switch needs changing? Hate to spend a lot for this repair professionally as such an old stove but otherwise in excellent condition. Thanks.
1 Answer Mahnrut, You will want to check the ignition switches and make sure that the switch has continuity in the light position. If this checks ok then the issue will most likely be a faulty spark module or the igniter is faulty. Read More...
Allen November 15, 2014 for Model Number Thermadore SGS365ZS I have two burners that will not light. There is gas to both of them when turned on but will not apart. There is no clicking sound of the burner trying to light. What parts will I need to fix the unit? thank you
1 Answer Hello Allen, You will need to install a simmer control kit 00497234 to replace both the spark switches and the simmer control. They all have to be replaced at the same time since the new design parts are not compatible with the old ones and if all are not replaced, there will still be an issue. Read More...
Wheezy January 31, 2014 for Model Number SGS365ZS Are the spark units replaceable? Also I am getting a good spark on some burners but the burner doesn't always light right away. Which item is faulty? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Wheezy. Yes, you can replace the spark switches in the unit. As for your issue, if it is sparking, and not lighting, try cleaning the burner and see if that helps the unit. Read More...
Rancher February 20, 2013 for Model Number sgsx365cs/01 How do you open this cooktop to be able to put this part in?
1 Answer Hello Rancher, You will have to remove the unit from installation and remove the burners and control knobs. There will be screws around the perimeter of top that you will remove to release top. Once top is off you can replace the spark switch. Read More...
Jan December 05, 2012 for Model Number Thermador SGC365R My cooktop got wet and now the back left burner ignitor sparks all of the time, except when I light it. The other ignitors/burners are working fine. I dried all of the ignitors and have left the one burner on low and this did not help. I have unplugged the unit and am now letting it sit. If I need to replace a part, which one would it be?
1 Answer Hello Jan. It sounds like the spark switch 00189008 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
John T November 18, 2012 for Model Number bosch ngm8654uc. Gas cooktop. Front right burner continues to spark after it is lit. The rest work fine. Help

Tom W. November 15, 2012 for Model Number SGSX365 The front left XLO burner will not light. No gas is detected when burner is turned on. Spark does work, but seems erratic. Last year I replaced a control unit ($110 ??), which solved the problem at the time but the LF XLO refuses to light. I tried switching the switch wires from the LR XLO burner to the LF, but it did not help. Suggestions? Thanks
1 Answer Tom, You will need to test and or replace the potentiometer 00497246 and the gas tube solenoid 00423022. If either is faulty, there will be no gas allowed to the burner assembly, and it won't ignite, even though the spark igniter works. Read More...
Thayer May 22, 2012 for Model Number stove model rdds30v The stove right front burner will not spark and gas does not come out, so it can't be lighted even with a lighter.
1 Answer Hello Thayer. Check and see if the knob 00415364 is broken or cracked and is not turning the valve to start the gas and spark. Read More...
Puffy August 30, 2011 for Model Number Thermador Model # SGSX456ZB (6 burner I have owned this Thermador cooktop for 8 years. I now have a burner that does not light. It is the left center star unit. The piezo ignitor became intermittent but it would eventually spark and ignite. We cleaned the burner with soap and water and now it quit sparking altogether. I have touched the piezo and I can still feel a small shock (tingle) when I turn the burner on but it isn't strong enough to send a spark. Can you determine if I need a new Switch, spark, Bosch Part Number: AP2821597? Thank you...lighting via BIC lighter
1 Answer Hello Puffy. You will want to check and make sure the igniter is good and dry and clean as well. If there is power coming to the igniter and it does not spark, you will need to replace the igniter 00188984. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
