Set Appliance State:

Isolate Mains Power to appliance as per TOPs P4

Set Multimeter to Resistance

Remove the ignition electrode from the burner door
Disconnect lead at the spark generator

Measurement:

Measure the resistance of the ignition electrode and lead.
Expected resistance approximately 1 Kohm.
Thoroughly inspect the ignition electrode and lead for cracks / damage to the ceramic, distortion, overall condition and ensure spark gap is approx. 4mm

4mm spark gap

Note.
1. If required clean the electrode with a small brush (not with a wire brush) or emery paper.
