Hi, I have a Wolf RT-36 rangetop with six open burners.  Recently the right front burner's igniter will not activate--no clicking or spark detected--when turning the control knob with plenty of natural gas flow present.  Turning on any other burner successfully causes all igniters to fire--including the right front's igniter--and then quickly turning the knob on the right front burner to supply gas results in successful ignition of the right front burner.  In light of the above pattern, is the problem due to a defective igniter wiring harness?  With all other burners functioning properly and the right front burner's igniter working properly when another burner is activated, I would not think it was the spark module.

If I am correct, would this be a project an intermediate DIYer would be able to perform?   Is anyone aware of a service manual that provides detailed instructions?  Besides Wolf dealers and repair centers, are there any online parts vendors people have successfully used?

Thanks in advance for your help.

That is more than likely your wiring harness. Esp if you get spark at the right front electrode when other burners are turned on.

Thanks for your reply, Josh.  When I looked at the Wolf manual and parts and wiring diagrams, it revealed a Wolf 813398 Ignition Valve Micro-Switch with three terminals.  There was no harness with six switches in place pictured, and the manual gives me the strong impression each switch can be replaced individually.  I will try to insert image files for your review.  Let me know your thoughts.  Thanks for your help.

that may well be the case. I have not worked on one like this, but what you said makes sense.
