Gas Stove Won't Light-

So got a gas stove but 2 of the ring aren't starting. I can see the starter light and gas does comes out. If I leave it on and use a lighter on it a vehicle flame shoots up.

So it looks like everything is working but the gas can't make it to the lighter thus not starting the fire. I watch some youtube video and it said there are tiny holes on the ring to allow the gas to pass through. but I don't see any tiny holes at all. There are spark for sure.

Right now I took the ring out and put it in water mix with white vinegar hopefully it will clean the rings.

Just wondering any suggestions from RS? OH it stop working after I clean it up. I use vinegar mix with baking soda to clean the stove.

Personally, I wouldn't fuck around with a gas appliance and just call a pro. Health and safety risks much higher with malfunctioning and/or poorly-maintained equipment.

Agreed with Jmac. I don't mess around with gas appliances. Call in a professional for assistance.

check your hvac, had this problem in the kitchen once, where x of 4 wouldn't light though all was working. turned out the air circulation in the room was causing the gas to flow away from the pilot. This might not apply to you, but worth checking if there's a draft.

Call the stove warranty office to see if they can send someone out. Turns out they didn't even bother to see if I cause it or anything. They just got the details and are sending out a tech to fix it cox is within 2year warranty from the developer.
Save myself some money.
