What does a Viking range igniter repair cost in Kirkland?
An igniter or burner fix on a Kirkland Viking range runs $170–$460; book it with Viking Repair Kirkland and the $89 diagnosis is folded into that price. Look at the cap first: Viking's guide says clean caps prevent improper ignition, and drying or reseating one costs nothing. Still no flame? Call (425) 629-0033.

1With the range off and cool, is each cap clean, dry and sitting level on its burner head?
No call yet Lift it, wipe it dry, set it back level and try again. Viking's guide clears a clogged port with a straight pin, never a toothpick.
Call If a clean, level cap still gives nothing but clicks, the igniter or what feeds it needs testing.
-
2Does the clicking carry on after the flame has lit?
No call yet Viking lists a wet or dirty igniter as one cause. After a spill or a wipe-down, let everything dry fully and try again.
Call If it is dry and still clicks, Viking's guide also names the grounding and wiring polarity of the power supply, which are measured, not guessed.

3Is every burner silent, with no click at all when a knob is turned?
No call yet Viking's guide says to confirm the range has power first. A tripped breaker can be reset once.
Call With the power on and still no spark anywhere, the spark supply is tested. Viking Repair Kirkland answers on (425) 629-0033.
What moves the price?
| Factor | What it does to the quote |
|---|---|
| No part at all | A cap that only needed drying, cleaning or reseating never reaches this band. |
| Which part has failed | An igniter (the electrode that sparks beside each burner), the spark module (the unit that powers the igniters) or the burner head itself. |
| One burner or all of them | One dead burner points at its own igniter or the wire to it; on Viking's four-burner freestanding gas ranges one spark module serves them all. |
| Gas that never arrives | If every burner sparks but none lights, Viking's guide points at the gas supply: the gas utility or a gas fitter, never this band. |
How does a Viking burner light?
By electric ignition; there is no standing pilot flame. Turning a knob opens the gas and sets the igniters sparking until the burner catches. On the 5 Series ranges, a flame that goes out while the gas is still on is relit automatically.
What if you smell gas?
Do not try to light anything and do not work a light switch. Leave the house, then ring the gas utility from outside or from a neighbour’s phone. The range can wait until the utility says the supply is safe.

The front burner clicked away long after the flame was up. He found a spark switch stuck closed and a spill that had crept into the wiring under the knob. Clicking stopped for good.

Simmer would not hold on two burners. It turned out to be pressure at the regulator, not the burners at all. Booked at nine, sorted by one, and the caps left cleaner than he found them.

The back burner had been dead for a month and the last outfit wanted to replace the whole spark module. It was a cracked igniter and a blocked port. Cleaned, tested, lit first time, and he showed me why it had happened.
