Most newer grills have either a piezo electric or battery powered ignitor. if piezo type, go out under low light conditions, open the grill (NO GAS turned), use a flashlight to locate the ignitor, and with the flashlight off press the ignitor button, you should see a blue arc, if not, you will need to replace the piezo unit. For the battery operated units, when it is quiet, just press the button with the hood open, you should hear a clicking sound, no sound, replace the battery and test again, still no sound make sure the battery is installed in the correct position. If you still get no clicking replace the battery powered ignitor.
