The RT486G is a 48-inch rangetop from Wolf’s original R/RT generation, pairing six open burners with an infrared griddle on its own dedicated section, all under a raised control panel with no oven beneath.
A burner that will not light at all, versus one that lights but keeps sparking after the flame has caught, point at different parts: the first is more often the spark module or electrode not generating a spark in the first place, while the second usually means the electrode is continuing to spark after ignition when it should have stopped — a timing or sensing issue in the spark module itself.
