The cooktop works fine and the piezo works how it should when you light the burner, but when you let the knob go, it continues ti crack every 10 seconds or so.
I have the Miele km342g cooktop - same issue. The ignition would come on after the burner was lit - click, click, click. Drove us crazy for years and we cursed the unit every time we used it. We assumed it was sensing unburned fumes and so we bought a small fan to "whisk" the gas fumes away. etc. etc. Until I finally figured out what a simple little thing it was. To start the burner, you turn the knob counter-clockwise. Therefore, once the burner is lit it's intuitive to turn the burner down by turning it clockwise. But in order to turn the burner down, you have to continue turning it counter-clockwise - or, "counter-intuitive". Once we figured that out, we haven't had a problem since.
Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote that will help figure out why the burner spark keeps on clicking...
