The Igniter and Orifice Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges and cooktops, designed to provide a reliable source of ignition for the gas burners. This assembly includes the igniter, which produces a spark to light the gas, and the orifice, which controls the flow of gas to the burner.
Causes for replacement may include wear and tear on the igniter, clogging or damage to the orifice, or electrical failures that prevent the igniter from sparking.
Symptoms of a bad Igniter and Orifice Assembly include:
- Difficulty lighting the burner or the burner not lighting at all
- An uneven or weak flame that does not adjust with the control knob
- Gas odor when the burner is turned on, indicating that gas is not igniting
This genuine Frigidaire OEM replacement part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore gas ranges.

Burner wouldn't light automatically Cheryl W. • Carlsbad , CA • March 31, 2017
Replaced igniter and orifice assembly, and replaced spark module. Used the video for help, but the video doesn't show the top cover piece that needs to be taken off first.
Also the screws for the igniter set were stuck from old grease or something and had to be drilled out. Overall the project was well worth my time for the cost vs replacement decision. AppliancePartsPros.com makes it so easy to choose a part and guesstimate the probably of choosing the right one.
