Because a range shares its control board and often its wiring harness between the cooktop and the oven cavity, a problem on one side can sometimes originate from a part that also affects the other. On gas and dual-fuel models, an igniter that clicks without lighting is the single most common range call we get; on induction ranges, an unresponsive control panel or a dead zone is the equivalent. Oven-side complaints on ranges track closely with what we see on Viking wall ovens — sensor problems, door-lock issues after self-clean, uneven baking.
Rather than sending separate technicians for the cooktop and the oven, we diagnose both halves of the range in a single appointment, which keeps the repair faster and the visit cheaper.

Burner won't light despite the igniter clicking
