My stove burner is sparking all by itself. How do I fix this?

Question

I have a Fisher & Paykel stove top, 5 burners in various sizes. The smallest one sparks (but doesn't light) when the center (largest) burner is on, and sometimes even all by itself.

Also, one of the medium burners doesn't start -- I need to light a match while giving it gas in order to start a flame on it.

Can I fix this by myself? What should I do? What could be causing this? I've already tried cleaning all of the burners.

Answer 1

The gas burners have small holes that need to be cleaned with a small wire, poke the holes Thru. The spark system needs a good ground so also clean the metal bracket above the spark tip.
