How Much Do Grill Igniter Parts Cost? [2026 Prices]

Igniters fail more than any other system on a gas grill, but most of the time nothing is actually broken. A dead battery, a grease-coated electrode tip, or a wire that came loose during cleaning accounts for a big share of the igniter calls we see. Check those first. If a part really has failed, ignition parts are some of the cheapest repairs on a grill, though premium brands can still surprise you.

Grill igniters and ignition parts prices

Prices checked October 2026 from authorized dealers, the Pro Grill store and Amazon. Always match the part to your model and serial number.

How grill ignition works

Most gas grills use one of three systems:

• Battery spark ignition. A push button or the valve itself triggers a small module powered by a AA or 9 volt battery. The module sends a high voltage pulse down a wire to a ceramic electrode, which sparks to the burner or a collector box.
• Piezo or rotary spark. Older grills use a mechanical spark generator that clicks when you push or turn it. No battery.
• Hot surface ignition. Some Lynx and Twin Eagles grills use electrodes that glow red hot instead of sparking. These run on household power through a transformer and cost more to replace.

Many built-in grills also use a micro switch on each valve, so the spark starts when you push in the knob. Those switches are small parts, about $19 for Lynx, $31 for Twin Eagles and $41 for Fire Magic, but a bad one makes a single burner stop sparking.

For help figuring out which part is at fault, see our troubleshooting guide on why a grill igniter stops sparking.

What ignition parts cost by brand

Mass-market grills: about $9 to $155

Universal battery spark generators sell online and at home centers for about $20 to $37, with 1 to 6 outlets. They fit a lot of big-box grills as long as the module fits the panel hole and has enough outlets for your burners. Generic electrode and wire assemblies run about $9 to $15.

Weber sells model-specific parts. A Genesis II electrode with wire costs about $31 to $35. Full igniter kits run about $48 for older Spirit grills, about $60 to $100 for most Spirit II and Genesis II models, and up to about $155 for a six-burner Genesis II LX. Weber spark modules alone are about $26 to $49. Aftermarket Weber igniter kits run about $23 to $36. More Weber pricing is in the Weber parts cost guide.

Mid-range built-ins: about $6 to $60

Blaze and Summerset ignition parts are reasonably priced. Blaze side and rear burner electrodes run about $6 to $23, and a Summerset Sizzler rotisserie burner electrode is about $25. Spark modules for Twin Eagles and AOG are about $47 to $59. An AOG main electrode wire is about $64 from the factory, or about $33 aftermarket. See the Blaze parts price guide for the rest of that grill.

Premium built-ins: about $58 to $610

• Twin Eagles hot surface electrodes are about $62, or about $50 aftermarket. Rotisserie glow electrodes run about $84 to $85.
• Fire Magic electrode kits run about $64 to $148, with infrared and Echelon electrodes at the high end. An aftermarket ceramic electrode kit for some models is about $33. Spark generators and ignitor modules are about $67 to $108.
• Alfresco main burner electrodes run about $58 from Alfresco, or about $20 aftermarket. Ignitor modules are about $98 to $169, and some are 115 volt plug-in units. Old style AA battery ignitors run about $124 to $149.
• Lynx electrodes with wire run about $32 to $38 for spark types and about $66 to $84 for hot surface types. Spark modules run about $76 to $106. Lynx sells full hot surface upgrade kits for about $550 to $610.

Lynx deserves a special note. Lynx has used spark, rotary and hot surface ignition across dozens of series letters, and the part numbers changed many times. Electrode kits for a 36 or 42 inch grill can run $145 to $315 depending on series. Our guide to Lynx part prices goes deeper.

Fire Magic also splits parts by line. Aurora, Echelon, Choice and older Custom and Regal grills use different modules and electrodes. Check the Fire Magic parts guide before ordering.

Battery boxes and wires

Battery boxes crack, corrode and lose contact over time, especially on grills that sit in the rain. Fire Magic and Lynx battery holders run about $47 to $49. Igniter wires alone run about $45 to $110 on premium grills, while Alfresco wire kits for a whole grill cost about $65 to $139.

Before replacing any of this, pull the battery and look at the contacts. Green or white corrosion can often be cleaned off. Then try a fresh battery, because a weak one will click but not spark.

OEM vs aftermarket ignition parts

Ignition is one area where aftermarket parts make a lot of sense. A spark is a spark, and good aftermarket electrodes and modules work well when they match the original. The things to match:

• Electrode tip shape and position, so it sparks where gas flows.
• Wire length and connector type at the module end.
• Number of module outlets and the trigger type (push button vs valve micro switch).
• Voltage. Never put a battery module on a grill built for a 120 volt transformer, or the reverse.

Hot surface igniters are the exception. Stick with OEM or a proven aftermarket part for Lynx and Twin Eagles glow electrodes, since they depend on the transformer and control circuit.

Find your model and serial number first

Get the model and serial number off the grill's rating plate. On Weber and most cart grills, it is a sticker on the frame inside the cabinet door or under a side shelf. On built-in grills it is usually behind the drip tray, on the front frame, or on a pull-out tag. Lynx and Alfresco parts in particular depend on the serial number, since ignition systems changed mid-model.

DIY or hire a pro

Swapping a battery module or an electrode is a reasonable DIY job on most grills. You remove the grates and heat plates, unclip the electrode from the burner bracket, and trace the wire back to the module. The hard part on built-ins is routing the new wire away from hot spots so it does not melt.

Hire a pro when the problem is in the valve micro switches, the transformer, or a hot surface system, or when several burners stopped lighting at once. Labor depends on how much of the control panel has to come off. A pro will usually test the module, wires and switches in a few minutes and replace only what is bad. Find local grill repair pros who carry common igniter parts on the truck.
