Santa Ana wind events bring heat waves and the occasional outage to Spring Valley, Lemon Grove & Bonita, and the surge when power returns is hard on electronic control boards. On a cooktop, most no-heat problems come down to an igniter, a bake or broil element, or a temperature sensor, and we test each before ordering parts.
On larger lots the laundry or a second refrigerator may be in a detached garage or workshop, so tell us where it is.

Radiant glass, induction, gas or coil: how each one works
Radiant smooth-tops have ribbon or halogen elements under the glass that glow red and heat the glass, which heats the pan. Each element has a limiter that cycles it off if the glass gets too hot, and an infinite switch or electronic control sets the power. A hot-surface light stays on until the glass cools.
Induction cooktops look similar but work differently. A copper coil under each zone creates a magnetic field that heats a magnetic pan directly; the glass only gets warm from the pan sitting on it. Power boards convert household current to the high-frequency current the coils need, a cooling fan keeps those boards from overheating, and pan-detection circuits shut the zone off when nothing magnetic is on it. Induction has become common in newer condos downtown, in UTC and in Mission Valley, often because buildings are all-electric or limit gas.
Gas cooktops use the same valve, spark-switch and spark-module arrangement as a gas range, but everything is packed into a shallower box under the countertop, often with a downdraft vent squeezed in nearby. Coil cooktops are the simplest: plug-in elements, receptacles and infinite switches.
