Control knobs must be pushed In
and turned to the LITE position. The clicking sound is the ignition sparking.

To stop the clicking sound after the burner lights, turn the control knob back to a desired setting. The control knob has stops for HI, medium and low, however, it can be set anywhere between HI and OFF.
