I recently picked up a EZ code SS Performer with gas assist. It is in amazing condition and everything looks great. The one problem is that I cannot get the gas assist to ignite using the button on the control panel. When I turn on the propane, I can light it using a lighter, and I get a nice, strong flame, so I know that the gas is flowing through the tube just fine. The trouble is getting the igniter to spark.
I am considering replacing the whole ignition system, but have read in many forums that it is often a quick fix and simply involves cleaning the spark area.
All of the wires are intact and everything seems to be in place. I tried removing the whole system and blowing through the tube to get ash and crud out of it, but that didn't work, so I'm wondering what the certified method of cleaning it is so that I can get the best chance of a spark to light the gas.
Thanks!
