my Faber brand Gas stove has issue with its ignition needle. The original metal part which stick out and 90degree turn at the top part was broken.
I was trying to replace it. However, I don't find a way to remove it.
I tried pull it up, twist it, but it don't even loosen nor shaking.

Do anyone has experience replacing this ignition needle?
Please provide guidance to me or guide me to the proper instruction.

Thank you very much.

just buy 1 of this to use wont be more easy ?

Yeah after gas running out still usable all i need just the spark.

Place like daiso or diy they do sell spark lighter , replacement spark needle ain't hard if you have very good diy skills if this is your first time ask professional do it , because I'm afraid you accidentally damage the hose or any other thing will causing unimaginable harm.

Just buy new gas stove lah. dirt cheap now

already bought new stove. but it's just the ignition issue. gas can burn as usual. that's why wanted to resolve this as a DIY project instead of disposing a usable item.

definitely a easier solution.
Just a challenge for DIY to fix it.

i already bought the replacement needle. Issue is the original ignition needle seems like stuck on it and aint moving at all.
any idea how to remove it?

Use the pliers clamping flat on the red line don't release hold tight and pull up your plier motion should be similar to orange line , or clamping the green part on spark needle flat surface you can see from the picture twisting right side or left side to try loosen or not then repeat the process from red and orange line again.

Thanks a lot bro.
all the grease had glued this part tightly.
At the end I hammer and crushed the whole thing piece by piece.

on the other hand, I was able to remove another ignitor smoothly without issue by just pulling it up. too bad i started with the hard one.

Is okay tearing thing apart in hard way also part of learning and gaining experience 😁

Change to Induction la. So much cleaner and TWICE as fast as gas. Forget about all the silly ' wok hei' that many weirdos kept talking. UNLESS your stove is as big as those in restaurants you will never get any 'wok hei' at home.
