Gas Works

3 out of five ignitions not sparking on gas hob

Hi... My husband cleaned the gas hob today (!) and now three of the ignitions don't spark. They were fine beforehand. There's no debris etc in the area, and it's not a gas flow issue, they just don't spark... Any suggestions? (I rang our usual Domestic Appliance chap and he says he doesn't do gas just electric... who would I ask to sort this if we can't do it ourselves?). For now we've invested in a lighter but we'd like it fixed!! Thanks to both who replied - great advice - I turned the oven on for ages to warm it up and two out of the three of them now work again - presumably have dried out!! (I don't know how to reply to the replies, but thanks, much appreciated, and thought I'd update in case anyone else reads this with same issue and needs to know that you were right!!)
