There is a ghost on my stovetop.
Some oven dude came out to fix a burner a few days ago. He fixed the burner, but fucked another burner and igniter (sparky things).
On two of the burners, when you turn it down, then back up, all the igniters start sparking and doesn't stop. Very odd. turns out if one igniter isn't sparking, they all spark as a safety thing so there's no explosion.
Took some methylated spirits to the sparky things which helped but the big trick was re-sparking, so when they all start going off, just push one of the burners' dial and it stops. Never seen that before.
Oven dude was gonna hit me for a few hundred just to have another look even though he didn't do it right.
So, happy to get it going again without any more hassle.
Fuck that oven guy though.
I've been using induction or those old school ones with the circular metal plates that heat up for so long. The Airbnb had gas and dear god I do not miss gas stoves.
I probably wouldn't have paid the oven dude tbh. I'm assuming you didn't realise it was broken until after he'd already left, but I would've called him back, told him it was broken, and then just not paid him afterwards. He's the one that broke it 🤷♂️
