Parts for Magic Chef 8351VS: 01 - Gas Controls Parts

This ignition switch controls spark to a gas range burner so burners light reliably when a knob is turned. Replaces a worn or failed switch to restore normal ignition and consistent burner operation. What it does:

• Sends the electrical spark signal to the burner igniter when the control knob is turned
• Allows the range to ignite burners; a failed switch can prevent sparks and burner ignition
• Works with the range's safety/ignition system to enable proper start-up sequencing
• Helps eliminate intermittent sparking or no-spark symptoms linked to a faulty switch

• Disconnect power and turn off the gas supply before beginning service
• Basic hand tools required; access may require removing the cooktop or control panel
• Handle electrical connections carefully and restore grounding; follow manufacturer instructions

The Spark Module Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for generating the spark needed to ignite the gas burners on the cooktop. The spark module sends electrical signals to the igniters, creating the spark that lights the gas for cooking. 

Over time, the spark module can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or normal wear and tear. When the spark module becomes faulty, it can lead to various problems with igniting the burners.

Symptoms of a bad spark module include:

• Burners not lighting or taking a long time to light
• No clicking sound when turning the burner knob
• Burners only lighting intermittently
• Visible sparks or arcing from the module

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

NOTE: This part is only compatible with serial numbers starting with 21 and up on model 8351VV.

The Sealed Gas Burner Head is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas ranges. It directs the gas flow to the burner, ensuring an even flame for cooking. This component is crucial for efficient heat distribution and precise cooking control.

Causes of a bad sealed gas burner head can include clogging from food debris or grease, corrosion due to exposure to moisture, or physical damage from impact or excessive heat. Over time, these factors can affect the burner's performance, leading to uneven cooking or failure to ignite.

Symptoms of a bad sealed gas burner head include:

• Uneven flame or no flame at all
• Difficulty in igniting the burner
• Yellow or irregularly shaped flames
• Burner not heating evenly or adequately
