This switch harness links the five valve-mounted ignition switches to the spark system so the surface burners light when you turn a knob. Replacing a damaged harness restores consistent, reliable ignition across all burners.

• Provides the electrical path from the valve/knob-activated switches to the spark module to ignite the burners
• Failure can cause no click/spark on one or more surface burners
• Stuck or shorted switches may cause constant clicking even with knobs off
• Intermittent ignition or burners lighting only when the knob is positioned just right
• Visual clues include cracked switch bodies, brittle insulation, or burned/broken wires

• Disconnect power and shut off gas supply before servicing
• Remove grates and knobs; lift the cooktop or top panel to access the valve switches
• Note wire routing and valve order; seat each switch on its valve stem and connect leads securely away from heat
• Restore power and test each burner for proper spark before reassembly

This surface burner spark electrode creates the arc that lights the gas at the burner. Replacing a worn or cracked electrode restores quick, reliable ignition on your gas cooktop or range.

• Generates a high-voltage spark to ignite the surface burner gas
• Sits beside the burner head and fires when a control knob is turned
• Common symptoms: burner won't light, no/weak/intermittent spark at one burner, visible cracks in the ceramic, arcing to the cooktop
• Helps restore consistent ignition when the original electrode is damaged or contaminated

• Disconnect power and shut off gas; allow the appliance to cool completely
• Remove burner cap and head to access the electrode; access may be from the top or beneath the cooktop per your model's service information

The Oven bake Igniter is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It is a crucial component that ignites the gas to create the flame needed for baking and broiling. By heating up to the necessary temperature, it allows the gas valve to open and ignite the gas, ensuring the oven reaches and maintains the desired cooking temperature.

Causes of a bad igniter can include electrical failures, wear and tear over time, or damage due to repeated heating cycles. An igniter can also degrade if exposed to food spills or cleaning chemicals.

Symptoms of a bad igniter include:

• Oven not heating up
• Delayed ignition or no ignition at all
• Weak or intermittent flame
• The smell of gas without ignition

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

• Meter gas to the burner for stable ignition and consistent flame
• Helps correct weak or uneven flames and poor burner heat
• Used when a spud is cracked, clogged, or physically damaged
• Works with the appliance's burner tube and valve assembly

• Turn off the appliance and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Use appropriate wrenches; avoid overtightening the spud
• Inspect surrounding burner parts and clean any debris before reinstalling

This natural-gas orifice spud is sized for the 5K burner position on compatible gas cooktops and ranges. It meters gas to the burner to set proper flame height, helping restore consistent heat when the original orifice is clogged, damaged, or incorrect. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow for the designated burner; calibrated for the 5K position on natural gas systems
• Can help resolve weak or oversized flames, yellow/lazy flames, uneven heating, or intermittent ignition
• Required when converting back to natural gas on applicable units; not for LP gas
• Installs in the orifice holder/manifold beneath the burner head

• Shut off gas supply and power; allow the cooktop/range to cool completely
• Remove burner cap and head to access the orifice
• Use the correct nut driver; hand-start threads and tighten snugly—do not overtighten
• Reassemble, leak-check connections with soapy water, and verify flame quality per the service instructions

Precision-machined orifice spud that meters natural gas to a range or cooktop burner. The #9 size restores correct fuel flow and flame characteristics when replacing a clogged or damaged orifice or when installing the model's specified natural-gas orifice.

• Regulates gas flow to the burner for proper flame size with natural gas
• Replaces a worn, blocked, or stripped orifice to improve flame quality
• Used during fuel conversion when the model calls for a #9 NG orifice
• Helps with symptoms: small/weak flame, uneven flame pattern, or a burner that won't stay lit

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply; allow the appliance to cool
• Hand-start threads, then snug gently—do not overtighten; keep the orifice and holder free of debris
• Restore gas, check all connections for leaks with a soapy-water solution, and verify proper flame

This range screw is an OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for gas stove burners. These screws attach the ignitor to the burner. Screws may corrode and rust during everyday use. Spills and accidents on the range top may leak down to the screws and cause them to become worn. Screws are not considered part of the ignitor kit or burner kit and will need to be purchased separately. If the screws appear rusty or corroded while replacing the ignitor, it is beneficial to replace them. It is a good idea to purchase the screws at the same time as the parts are purchased so that they are available when needed. A Phillips head screwdriver is necessary to remove and replace the old screws. Make sure the power and gas are disconnected before installing the new screws.This screw is made of silver metal and is a Phillips head screw that is sold individually. Verify the number of screws needed before ordering. This screw is designed for use in gas ranges manufactured by Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Roper, Estate, Inglis, Maytag, Amana, Jenn-Air, and Crosley.
