The short answer
Despite the prefix it shares with its neighbour, this designation is a parts family in its own right, and it covers a narrower roster with one ignition arrangement across it. That makes the ignition side the sensible first suspect here, and it makes the full string on the rating plate the only thing an order should ever be matched to.
What owners of these models bring in
- A burner clicks and will not light — The signature complaint on this arrangement.
- Ignition continues after the burner has lit — Moisture or a soiled igniter.
- Only some burners light reliably — Compare them; the arrangement is shared.
Problem classes on NGMP models
- The igniter and what surrounds it — First on this designation, because the arrangement is common across the roster.
- Moisture and spillage — It explains both a failure to light and clicking that will not stop.
- Caps and heads out of position — They move the spark away from where it has to be.

Before you open anything
Safety
If you smell gas, do not switch anything on or off, leave the building, and call the gas utility from outside. Do not look for the leak yourself. Work only on a cold hob, and never dry an igniter with anything that could leave residue behind. Ignition is electrical: switch the hob off at its breaker before removing any panel.
What is owner work on these models
Drying and reseating are owner work, as is comparing one burner against another. The igniter assembly, the valves and the supply are not, and a part that does not fit should be checked against the full designation before anything else is tried.
