Customer Questions and Answers for Spark Module by Ge

4.89 (64)
By: Ge
Part Number: OEM20941161
Manufacturer Part Number: WB13X32509

The Spark Module is an OEM part for GE cooktops. Located within the cooktop's control unit, this module is responsible for generating electric sparks to ignite the burners. Consisting of electronic components and wiring, the spark module works with other systems to reliably and safely light the gas or electric burners.  

Symptoms of a bad spark module include:

  • Burners not lighting or lighting intermittently  
  • Repeated flashing of the burner indicator lights  
  • Clicking or buzzing sounds coming from the control unit

Causes of a failed spark module can be exposure to moisture, dust or debris accumulating inside the control unit over time as well as mechanical or electrical degradation of the ignition components.

This genuine OEM GE replacement part is also compatible with some Kenmore cooktop models that use GE's control systems.

Answer

Danna, with the power disconnected and the gas turned off, you will want to test the switches WB18X23942 first. To do this, you will want to access the manifold section of the cooktop, turn on each burner separately and check for 0 resistance between the red wire on the transformer wire harness and the corresponding switch terminal on the spark module wire harness. The switch terminals are as follows: Center burner (Transformer Red to Module SW5/Gray), left rear burner (Transformer Red to Module SW3/Orange), left front burner (Transformer Red to Module SW2/Yellow), right rear burner (Transformer Red to Module SW4/Brown), right front burner (Transformer Red to Module SW1/Blue). From there you will want to test the transformer WB27X21609 by checking the primary winding for approximate resistance value of 32.8 ? between the 2 brown (input) wires. Then check the secondary windings for approximate resistance value between: White to red - 2.2 ?, Brown to red - 196 ?, Brown to white - 198.2 ?. If these tests pass, then you will want to replace the spark module WB13T10076.
