Hi
If it were me I would check to see if the click results in a spark at the electrode. If not, then where does the spark go? Short circuit ? None at all ?Broken ignition lead or PCB problem I would say.
It doesn't sound as though the gas fitter is very methodical.Find someone else.

Hi
There are two scenarios here . From the sound of your posts you have got someone from a phone book who is stringing you along to milk your wallet OR you have done it yourself.
Either way you should get someone competent to fix it.
