Because they're not flamable, and they don't get hot enough. They're made to heat up enough to cook what you put on them, but not enough to melt or burn. Besides, it would be a bit of a fire hazzard to have a stove that caught on fire every time you needed to cook something on high, don't you think?

Your stove probably won't turn on because it is probably aged. But if you just recently got your stove, you might want to call a technician.

The sparker may be wet. Take a hairdryer and turn it on hot and blow it on the starters. Turn off the gas and electricity to the stovetop beforehand.

Does a stove reach a medium temperature faster if you turn it on high first?

The element will always use full available power if you are starting from a cool oven. (Some high end ovens wont do it this way). However if you want to go from say 350 to 400 the oven will usually get hotter faster if you set it to 500 (or broil) first. Then turn it down at 400. This will not work on all ovens.Idea: you can tell the temperature of the oven by turning knob down until light goes off. at that point on the dial you can read the current temperature of the oven. Warning - the oven will turn the elements off with this method and may wear them out because of too fast cooling and heating. They are made for that but can still shorten life. be as quick as you can so off time is as short as possible.

Why wont oven reach temperature?

Bad thermostat? Bad gas valve so oven never gets enough gas to reach temperturs? And can you put the dial on wrong so it's not set at zero when off. It could be that the thermostat is faulty, or it could be down to a simple human error such as having accidentally left the oven door ajar. Another possibility might be that your gas pressure is low- if the latter, this would be a fault in the pipeline and not with the oven itself. Whatever the reason, I don't advise you to try and fix it yourself, for safety's sake- call out a service engineer.
