Hi All,
Can anyone help source a ceramic igniter for the hob - mine has a crack allowing the spark to 'leak' out and not spark from the tip. I have turned the electrode for now but will need to change it at some point and so far I have only been able to find a complete VW kit which includes the igniter button for an eye watering cost!
Any help would be appreciated.

I would go with the hob ignition upgrade which is on a previous thread as the original system is poor, my hairs are only just starting to grow back with the constant flash over from slow ignition
