Does the grill light manually with a lighter or a match? This will let you know if you are having a gas flow or an igniter issue. If so, we can focus on strictly the ignition system.  If not, please reach out to us by email at support@weberstephen.com or give us a call at 800-446-1071 for assistance.

Did you replace the battery and try inserting it both ways? While checking the battery make sure to clean out the ignition module the battery goes in with something like a Q-tip if needed.

Are all of your igniter wires connected? We recommend disconnecting and reconnecting all igniter wires to ensure no loose connections.
