Description
The Spark Electrode Top is an OEM part for GE gas ovens and ranges. This electrode is located at the top of each gas burner and works with the ignition switch and control unit to produce sparks that light the gas.
Causes can be normal wear and tear from regular use. The electrode material degrades with the high temperatures and repeated sparking cycles. Poor sealing of the unit can also allow liquids or debris to build up and damage the electrode.
Symptoms of a bad electrode top include:
- Intermittent or unreliable ignition where the spark does not always light the gas
- One or more burners that will not ignite properly
- Safety issues if the electrode cracks or deteriorates over time
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
