Customer Questions and Answers for Surface Burner Spark Electrode by Whirlpool

4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18038565
Manufacturer Part Number: WP8523793

The Surface Burner Spark Electrode is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas ranges. This electrode is responsible for generating the spark that ignites the gas burner, allowing the burner to produce a flame for cooking.

Over time, the spark electrode can become faulty due to exposure to high temperatures, grease, and general wear and tear. This can lead to unreliable ignition or complete failure to ignite the burner.

Symptoms of a bad surface burner spark electrode include:

  • The burner not igniting
  • Weak or intermittent spark
  • Clicking sound without ignition
  • Burner flame going out soon after ignition

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Answer

Mike, You'll need to remove the cooktop and check for a damaged igniter switch [AP4008846and wiring to the switch. Check to make,sure there are no loose connections on the wires to the igniters. Then you'll need to move the range out of the cabinet and check the spark module 8215557 and wiring, located on the back of the range. We'll be sending you some additional information. Thanks
