This is a spark ignition switch used on gas ranges and cooktops to detect burner position and activate the igniter when the knob is turned. It sends a signal to the spark module to generate the electric spark that lights the gas burner. Replace this switch if a burner fails to spark when turned on, sparks continuously even after the flame is lit, or if the igniter clicks but won't stop.

This right-side burner switch controls heat output on the cooktop so burners respond correctly to your knob settings. It restores proper power and temperature control for a single right-side heating element. What it does:

• Replaces a worn or faulty right burner control to restore variable heat settings
• Enables proper on/off function and temperature regulation for the right cooktop element
• Commonly used when a burner won't heat, only works at certain settings, or cycles unexpectedly
• Works with ranges that use a separate switch for the right front/right rear heating element

• Disconnect power at the breaker before attempting any repair to avoid shock
• Handle wiring terminals carefully; verify connections match the original before reassembly
• Use proper tools and avoid overtightening mounting hardware to prevent damage
