Most pilot-less stoves with electronic ignitions have lighting positions on the knobs. The click does not stop automatically when the flame ignites. The user must continue to turn the knob to a cooking flame-height position to stop the clicking.

∙ 15y agoDid you just clean the stove, or did something overflow? Water on the little electric igniter can cause it to repeatedly fire. When this happens, dry off ALL of the igniters and the area around them. It may take a while for the last dampness to evaporate, so don't expect instant results.
