Gas rings ticking but never lighting, a coil glowing red hot at every setting, or an induction zone quitting mid-sear? Someone from our team comes over, figures out what failed and gets the whole cooktop working again.
Gas, coil, glass or induction, cooktops in Barrie homes tend to develop the faults below. Each card lists the first components we examine.
A heat-split electrode, a cap knocked out of position, or burner holes crusted over by spills.
Cleaning water that seeped under the top, or an ignition switch jammed on.
An element that burned out, a charred connection block, or a switch passing no power.
Its control switch fused shut, leaving the element running full power wherever the knob sits.
Overheated electronics, a cooling fan that stopped, or cookware the zone can't detect.
Ports half clogged, a pressure regulator off its setting, or the air intake set too narrow.
Stove types we fix
Whatever name is on the door, from budget basics to premium European models, our technicians have worked on plenty of them before.
Thermador induction cooktops use F and E codes to explain why a zone stopped. These are the ones that show up most.
Electronics overheated
The affected zone shut off to cool down. Wait for it to cool, tap any key and keep cooking when the message goes away.

For a week two of our burners clicked away and wouldn't catch. Turned out one electrode had cracked and the other was dirty. Both light first try now.
Our big coil was stuck on high. New switch the same afternoon, plus a clear explanation of what went wrong.
The induction top kept cutting out halfway through cooking. He found the cooling fan had failed and replaced it. Works perfectly now.
Plenty of stove calls end with a reseated cap, a different pan or a changed setting. Check these first.
Power and gas on
Breaker reset, and for gas, the supply valve at the wall turned on.
Caps seated
Burner caps removed, wiped and set back flat.
Ports clear
After cooling, clogged holes opened with a pin and a small brush.
Right cookware
With induction, any magnet should grip the pan's base, and the pan should fill most of the ring.
Leave these to us
Burner still won't heat?
