Spark Module

By: Whirlpool

Part Number: OEM18059193

Manufacturer Part Number: WPW10331686

The Spark Module is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It is an electrical component that generates the spark needed to ignite the gas burners. By sparking consistently and reliably, the module allows the cooktop burners to ignite with each use.

Causes of a bad spark module can include normal wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture or residue, or issues with the electronic components that produce the spark.

Symptoms of a bad spark module include:

Burners that will not ignite or light consistently
Burners that ignite but then immediately go out
Only some of the burners lighting while others do not
A clicking sound coming from the ignitors but no visible spark

Note: For harness from spark module to igniters use part number 9756892.

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

Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Spark Module (Part Number: OEM18059193)

Jeff August 01, 2014 for Model Number GS445LEMS1

The bake burner in the oven is the only one that's affected. The oven might come on then goes out or it may not light at all. The burners and the broiler are working fine. Does each surface burner and the two burners in the oven all work independently from different parts of the spark module?

1 Answer

Hello Jeff,
If the ignitor is clicking when it should start, the issue is most likely in the gas valve WPW10293048. The only common thread between the top and the bake compartment is the spark module WPW10331686. If the bake ignitor is not sparking or making the clicking sound, the module would be in question.

Barbara June 23, 2014 for Model Number KGRA806PSS00

My KA gas stove sparks and lights for the stove top, but nothing for the oven except for the element. Repairman stated it would cost over $1000 as both spark module and control board could be problem and he recommends changing both as they "both usually go at same time?". Am I being taken in? Why is the stove top sparking and lighting if the spark module is the problem? Why should the control board be affected too?

1 Answer

Hello Barbara,
You should test the coils in the gas valve WP9763716. They should read 216 ohms each. If this is good, you will most likely need to replace the spark module WPW10331686. I do not see the board being responsible for this issue unless it is only the bake that is inoperative.

I have a Whirlpool Accubake Gas Stove. The oven and broiler won't light. The top burners are fine. I have changed the Spark module W10331686, but still have the same problem. Any help would be great!! Thanks

Bernster, With a new spark module WPW10331686 as long as there are no loose or broken wires the issue would be in the oven bake valve
WPW10293048. The spark module produces 8 to 18 VDC to the gas valve, and the solenoids should register 216 ohms resistance. If the resistance or voltage is low or missing, the valve will not open and the burner will not ignite.

J. March 25, 2014 for Model Number KGRA806PSS01

How do I gain access to this part which seems to be mounted under the top burners? I took the front panel off but can't quite figure out how to get to it. Any advise you can provide would be great.

1 Answer

Hello J.,
You will need to turn off the gas and power to the unit before beginning. You will need to remove the grates and the burner caps then remove the screws holding down each burner. This will allow you to raise the main top. Be sure none of the burners try to come up with the main top since this will damage the gas tubes and they will have to be replaced.

Ray March 05, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool Gold Model# GS475LEMS 2

I have Whirlpool Gold (8 yrs old) that the bake oven want light I replace the igniter but still does the same. The igniter doesn't glow when the oven is turn on . I hear two clicks but want ignite. The top burner works fine Please Help!! THx P/S First breakdown since new!!

1 Answer

Hello Ray. The first thing to check is the is to make sure that you are getting proper voltage to the direct spark ignition control. With oven on broil you want to have 120vac between connectors J1-4 neutral and J1-7 L1. If you don't have power here then you need to replaced Clock assembly. If you have power the test from J1-4 to J1--2. If you do not have power then replace spark module. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter.

Brian P. March 01, 2014 for Model Number WFG361LVS1

At the end of the Self Clean cycle the circuit breaker tripped. I reset it but it did it again. After resetting the second time I heard the stove CLICK loudly and lost all power to the displays and ignitors. I replaced the control board after seeing that there was power in the wires running from the plug, thinking that would be the problem but still no power. What would cause NO power to the entire appliance?

1 Answer

Hello Brian,
You need to check the wall outlet. If the problem is inside the unit, it will have to be near where the power first enters the unit since the wiring splits and after the split, the surface and bake compartments are entirely separate.

Ken February 13, 2014 for Model Number sf362lxss0

My oven will not light. The broiler clicks but the bake does not. I do not smell any gas from either. The cook top works fine so what can be the problem?

1 Answer

Hello Ken,
This sounds like the gas valve WPW10293048 has failed internally.

Ken February 06, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool Accubake SF362LXSS0

My oven and broiler will not light. When I push broiler I hear it click twice but it does'nt light. When I push oven, I hear nothing and it does'nt light either. I have replaced the oven igniter and the control panel...neither of those are the problem.

1 Answer

Hello Ken. If there is power from the board to the module, but no spark, you will need to order and replace the spark module WPW10331686 on the unit.
