Brand: GE

Main Symptom: front two burners will not ignite,
What happens & when: When I try to light them using the ignition, there is no click and no spark. The gas comes on, and if I use the rear “start/light,” it will either work from the ignitor or the gas just lights … what is wrong, and what do I need to do to fix this easily and quickly?

You will need to check the spark module, the wiring and the ignition switches.

Thx, that seems fairly broad, and the link doesn’t take me to a specific page showing me what to do. Can you please direct me a bit more? I’m a total novice about this stuff. Thanks in advance.

The spark module for your model seems to be located under the cooktop.
The wires and switches would be checked for continuity. If the wires and switches are good it will likely be the spark module. We don’t have a video for your exact model, so I am including a like for several different ranges for you to get an idea of what is involved.

Here is also a video of using a multimeter.
