This spark switch and harness assembly replaces a worn or damaged ignition switch and its wiring to restore reliable sparking for gas burner ignition. It provides the switch contacts and connectorized wiring needed for the cooktop ignition circuit. What it does

• Sends the ignition spark signal when a burner control is turned, allowing the burner to light.
• Replaces a faulty switch or frayed harness that can prevent sparking or intermittent ignition.
• Helps eliminate symptoms such as no spark at the burner, weak or inconsistent ignition, or control knob ignition failure.
• Matches OEM connector and terminal layout for direct replacement where specified.

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off gas supply before starting repair; follow all safety precautions.
• Handle connectors and terminals carefully to avoid bending pins or damaging insulation.
• Basic hand tools are typically required; refer to your model's service instructions for panel removal steps.

The Spark Electrode is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for generating the spark that ignites the gas in the burners, allowing for efficient and reliable lighting of the stove. The spark electrode is located near the burner and produces a high-voltage spark to ignite the gas.

Causes of a bad spark electrode can include wear and tear over time, buildup of food debris or grease that can interfere with the spark, and damage from cleaning or handling. Electrical issues can also cause the electrode to fail.

Symptoms of a bad Spark Electrode include:

• The burner not igniting
• Weak or no spark
• Clicking sound without ignition
• The burner lighting inconsistently

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

The Burner Head is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas ranges. This is the smaller burner head and it distributes gas evenly through the ports to produce a focused and consistent flame for temperature control during cooking.

Size: Small

Due to spills, grease buildup, corrosion, or wear and tear, the small burner head can deteriorate, clogging its ports and affecting gas distribution. When this occurs, the burner head may struggle to maintain a steady flame, impacting cooking performance.

Symptoms of a faulty Small Burner Head include:

• Uneven or low flames on the small burner
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• Clogged ports or visible rust/corrosion

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

Size: Large.

This factory screw secures panels, brackets, or trim within your appliance. Replacing a missing or stripped fastener restores a tight fit, reduces vibration and rattles, and helps keep components aligned for reliable, long-term performance.

• Fastens panels, brackets, or trim to the appliance cabinet/frame
• Replaces damaged, rusted, or missing hardware
• Helps eliminate vibration noises, gaps, and loose-fitting parts
• Supports proper alignment of adjoining components

• Disconnect power; turn off gas/water supplies where applicable.
• Match to the original screw from your model's parts diagram before installation.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver bit for the head.
• Tighten snugly—do not overtighten to prevent stripping threads or cracking plastic bosses.
