Ignitor Issue?

Hey everyone! I’ve had my blackstone for close to a year and love it! However, last month we had a wicked storm roll through and blew this bad boy over. Since then I’m having trouble igniting a flame. The gas lines definitely still work, I can smell it immediately every time I open the propane line and turn on the burners. The problem is when I push the ignitor button it doesn’t light the burners right away. Sometimes I have to keep trying and trying for minutes while turning gas on and off so I don’t blow my eyebrows off. Now I just take the griddle completely off to expose the burners and light them by hand with a lighter. So that being said i believe the igniting system is no longer creating a spark. I can hear the “clicking” when I push the ignitor button every time so it’s not completely broken. Does anyone have any insight on a problem like this? Is it hard to replace these things? Is there a quick fix other than removing the griddle to every time? Any help or suggestions would be amazing!

TLDR; grill fell over, ignitior button works but won’t actually ignite the flowing gas through the burners. Help. :)

Not sure how to add a picture here btw, sorry!
