My Viking Oven Is Clicking (Repair)

Sometimes things happen in the world that your Viking oven starts clicking and refuses lighting. Don’t panic, it is a common breakdown for many gas ovens. Probably, you will be able to eliminate the issue yourself under the condition you have all necessary tools and some kind of repair practice. If you don’t, please, contact a qualified appliance repair technician ASAP! If you have an intention to fix it yourself, follow these tips. First, unplug the power source before you clean the cooktop ignitor. After you turn off the power source, remove the burner cap and use a toothbrush or another small brush to dislodge the food. Clean around the burner, underneath the knobs and even around the ignitor. If your range does not stop sparking, lingering moisture around the igniters can be at fault. Despite our best efforts, a pot boiling over or spilled liquid during cooking can both leave invisible moisture behind. Even cleaning can result in a Viking range clicking when turned off due to remaining moisture that soaks into the ignition system. Oftentimes, the spark module can fail to produce the spark that ignites the gas. In other instances, the spark ignition switch doesn’t provide the electricity the module needs to spark or the igniter itself is faulty. You can purchase the parts and replace them yourself, but it's highly recommended that you hire a certified technician when dealing with a faulty ignition module.
