Description

This high-voltage transformer supplies the elevated voltage needed to create spark ignition in gas cooktops and ranges, restoring reliable spark generation so burners and ovens can light consistently. What it does:

• Converts low-voltage control signals into the high-voltage pulse required for spark ignition systems.
• Powers the spark electrodes that ignite gas burners and oven burners.
• Commonly used when burners or oven will not spark or ignition is intermittent.
• Works with the range's ignition module and electrode assembly to produce a visible spark.

What's included:

• One high-voltage transformer assembly.

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock—this part handles high voltage.
• Handle and route high-voltage leads carefully; replace damaged wires or boots for reliable operation.
• Verify mounting orientation and connector fit; use the OEM mounting hardware and follow the appliance's service manual.
