One coil on my Admiral cooktop won't heat. How do I know what's wrong?

With the breaker off, swap the coil into a working position. If it still doesn't heat, the element is bad. If it works, the receptacle or switch is the problem.

My gas cooktop burner clicks constantly after a boil-over. How do I fix it?

Turn off the power, remove the cap and burner head, clean them and let them dry thoroughly, since moisture keeps the igniter sparking. Reseat the cap evenly. If it still clicks when dry, the igniter switch or spark module needs replacement.

Do you replace cracked glass cooktops in East Charlotte homes?

Yes, when the glass is available for that model. Stop using a cracked top and turn off its breaker until it is repaired. On an older range, a new glass top may cost a large share of a replacement, and we will help you compare.

Admiral Cooktops: What We Check First

Admiral built-in cooktops are uncommon, and most cooktop calls for the brand involve the surface of an Admiral range. Electric models usually have plug-in coil elements that sit in receptacles under drip pans, controlled by infinite switches behind each knob. Some later models have smooth glass tops with radiant elements. Gas models use open or sealed burners lit by spark igniters or, on very old units, standing pilots.

Infinite switch wear leaving an element stuck on high
Gas igniters clicking without lighting after spills
Cracked glass or failed radiant element on smooth-top models

The full explanation, including what you can safely check yourself and when repair beats replacement, is in our Admiral cooktop repair guide.

Long Simmering, Spills and Burner Switches

Cooking for a large household means long simmering, heavy pots and frequent spills, and cooktops show it. On gas surfaces, boil-overs clog burner ports and soak the igniter, causing constant clicking or uneven flames. On electric coil tops, elements and their receptacles burn out from heavy use, and the infinite switch behind each knob can fail so a burner only runs on high. Smooth glass tops can crack from heavy cookware or sliding pots. Before any check, turn off the breaker, and never work on the gas supply. If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas utility or 911.

Cleaning First, Then Testing

Remove gas burner caps, clean the ports with a soft brush and let everything dry fully before reseating the caps evenly. On a coil top, swap a dead element into a working position to see whether the element or the switch is at fault. If the problem stays, we test igniters, switches, receptacles and elements and tell you the cost first. Most cooktop repairs are straightforward.
