A stove burner can suddenly stop working due to several distinct mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic failures. On gas ranges, common culprits include clogged burner ports blocked by food grease, misaligned burner caps, or a dead spark module. On electric stoves, typical issues include a burned-out heating coil, loose terminal connections underneath the cooktop, or a failed infinite switch that no longer sends 240-volt power to the burner element. You can troubleshoot burner failures safely using a digital multimeter. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when cleaning obstructions or replacing the faulty switch or element restores normal heating or sparking performance.
