The Spark Module is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas ranges. It is responsible for generating the spark necessary to ignite the gas burners on your cooktop, ensuring reliable and consistent ignition every time. It controls the timing and distribution of the sparks, allowing for the proper ignition of each burner.

Symptoms of a faulty spark module include:

• No spark or ignition when turning on the burners
• Weak or intermittent sparks
• Difficulty in lighting the burners consistently

A bad spark module can occur due to electrical malfunctions, wear and tear over time, or exposure to moisture or grease. If you experience issues such as no spark at all, weak or intermittent sparks, or difficulty in igniting the burners, it may be time to replace the old or damaged spark module with this genuine OEM part.

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

This heat shield protects oven or range components from direct heat, helping prevent damage to nearby panels and wiring. It's a direct-replacement exterior shield used when existing metal shields are warped, cracked, or missing. What it does:

• Diverts and dissipates heat away from control panels, insulation, or adjacent components
• Helps stop heat-related discoloration, warping, or premature wear of nearby parts
• Restores proper clearance and airflow around the oven cavity after shield damage
• Commonly replaced when you see scorched areas, melted trim, or gaps where a shield once sat

• One heat shield (exact shape and mounting holes as shown in OEM diagram)

• Disconnect electrical power (and gas, if applicable) before starting any repair
• Remove oven racks and any trim panels to access the shield; keep track of fasteners
• Compare the replacement to the removed part to confirm fit before fastening
• If mounting hardware is damaged or missing, procure correct OEM fasteners — only the shield is guaranteed to ship
