If the wall receptacle does not provide correct polarity, the ignitor will become grounded and click occasionally, even after the burner is ignited. A qualified electrician should check the wall receptacle for correct polarity and grounding. This sparking condition will also occur if there is a breeze across the burners or when on low.
Warning: Do not touch ignitor when it is sparking.
