Customer Questions and Answers for Spark Module by Whirlpool

Hello Tom! The spark module WPW10331686 will come with step by step instructions regarding the installation of this part. Here is the information off the installation sheet: 1. Unplug range or disconnect power. 2. A red wire used with the original electronic board will need to be removed and taped off. This red wire is not required when installing the replacement board. See Figure 1. 3. A jumper located at the power cord connection must also be removed. (This connection is located at the right rear area of the storage drawer/warming drawer compartment). See Figure 2. NOTE: On ranges with a warming drawer the rear screws on the RIGHT SIDE panel will have to be removed to gain access to the 120V connector plug and transformer wiring connector. Once the jumper is removed, reconnect the power cord connection. See Figure 3 and 4. **Please not the figures are only available with the tech installation sheet. Hope this information helps you determine if you can repair your unit. Thanks!

Hello Al. No, there should not be voltage when the oven is off, only voltage when on. You will need to look for a broken wire. If the wire is good coming to the igniter, you will need to replace the EOC WPW10116542. Hope this helps.

Hello Don, does your control board diplay anything when you program the oven on? If so, you might have to replace the spark module board WPW10331686. Thanks

Hello David. Yes, it sounds like the spark module may be the culprit. Thanks.

Hello Chris. If your having trouble with it sparking, more than likely you have a bad spark module. These take a special very high voltage meter for testing. Hope this helps.

Hello Calvin. You can test at the gas valve. You should have atleast 9 volts dc across the red and orange wires. If you have this voltage, then you have a bad gas valve. If the voltage is not there, you either have a bad spark module or broke wire. Hope this helps.
