The Whirlpool spark module is an OEM replacement part responsible for controlling the ignition and sparking of the gas burners in a Whirlpool range or cooktop. The spark module is typically located behind the control panel or near the burners, and it generates the electrical sparks needed to ignite the gas for cooking.
Causes of a bad module can include electrical surges, physical damage, or simply wear and tear over time.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
- Gas burners fail to ignite or have weak or inconsistent sparks
- Continuous sparking even after the burner is lit
- No spark at all when attempting to ignite the burners
- Unresponsive or non-functional burner control knobs
- Visible damage, such as burn marks or corrosion, on the spark module
The Whirlpool spark module can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

Bad spark module Dovie D. • Paradise , CA • August 25, 2014
Replaced module:
Although the new module was slightly different due to a third or ground terminal that was not on the original I managed to figured out that I did not need to worry about the ground since the existing wiring had already allowed for the connection. Easy repair.
I ordered the part one day and it was delivered the next and that was using the least expensive delivery service.
You guys are great
