Graham October 16, 2020 for Model Number KGST307GBL0 My ignitors spark continuously when I turn off all the burners. I I ight anyone of them the sparking stops. I disconnected each spark lead from the spark module individually the sparking continued on the others. I then disconnected all of the leads going from the burner knobs too the spark module and the sparking continued. Next I disconnected everything from the spark module except the line neutral and ground. I could still hear the module clicking inside (of course there was no sparking) I am assuming it is a faulty spark module. The problem is that I replaced it a year ago after the spark would continue for a while after the burner lit. It only seemed to fix the problem intermittently but at least it did not spark in the off position. The continuous sparking in the off position just started. Is there some other faulty part that could be damaging the spark module? I do not wish to replace the module and have it go bad again. Thanks for your help
1 Answer Graham, Based on the issue, it would most likely be caused by a faulty spark module. Read More...
Matthew G April 12, 2020 for Model Number Kitchenaid KGRT507GBS0 All four igniters will start sparking at once, even when the knobs are all set to 'off.' The only way they stop is if one specific burner is lit. It will stop after about 20-30 minutes of sparking. Is this spark module or is it ignitor burner switches?
1 Answer Hello Matthew, the ignition switch for that specific burner is faulty and needs to be replaced, part WP9751325. Read More...
Chris Paulsen June 15, 2018 for Model Number KGCT305XWH2 I have one burner where the ingniters keeps sparking after the burner lights. The other 3 work fine. I have replaced all the igniter switches and it still happens . Do I need to replace the control module?
1 Answer Chris, Check the burner base, cap and surrounding area for spillage and debris. Check that the igniter itself isn't loose or damaged. and that the burner flame is the proper size and color. Your cooktop has a "re ignition" module WP4454392 / 3185229 Spark Module. If the burner flame isn't within a close enough proximity of the igniter, the igniter reads this as no flame and attempts to re ignite the burner. If the burner assembly and igniter are OK, then replace the spark module. Read More...
Elmer G November 26, 2015 for Model Number kenmore 9117360190 The igniters click continuously, have disconnected high voltage leads at burner one at a time, no difference, checked all switches and wiring with ohm meter all ok. Ohms across input transformer, 750 as listed on schematic, it uses a harper -wyman kool lite no 6526, we tried another one that was 6520 all nos and wiring points are same, now we get no spark at all.
1 Answer Elmer, The most likely cause for the unit to have the igniters clicking continuously when in the off position would be a faulty ignition switch. You will want to check the switches and test with them in the off position for continuity. If there is continuity in the off position then the switch is bad. If they all check ok then it may be a faulty spark module. Read More...
Jim April 22, 2014 for Model Number KDDT207AWH0 I see the same part no listed at higher and lower costs on line. Is there any difference in parts? Also, is there a switch or two that should also be replaced? A service guy diagnosed the spark module needed replacement plus "switches". Thanks, Jim
1 Answer Jim, the spark module listed for your model is part number WP4454392. As long as the manufacturer part number 4454392 matches on all sites there shouldn't be a difference in the part itself. Unfortunately, we can not determine the difference with each offered spark module cost. The spark switch is part number WP3185427, this item comes one per package. Thanks! Read More...
Gary August 09, 2013 for Model Number Roper stove #9113678895 With all of the burners turned off the igniter will start to spark and will not stop. If I turn on all of the burners, the igniters will spark and spark continuously. The only way to stop the igniters is to turn off the power to the stove. When power is restored, the igniters will once again start to spark.
1 Answer Hello Gary, This will be a bad start switch WB13M1 for one of the surface burners. You can test them by unplugging them one at a time until the unit stops sparking. When the bad one is dis-connected, the unit will stop sparking. Read More...
Denzil P February 05, 2013 for Model Number KGCT365BWH4 On my cooktop it doesnt click when I turn the gas on, what could it be?
1 Answer Hello Denzil, You will want to check your burner switches for continuity. Turn gas off to unit and check with valve open for continuity on the switches. If there is continuity then check the wiring to the spark module for broken or damaged wires. If this checks ok then replace the spark module. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Frank. 1. Turn off gas supply and disconnect power to the range. 2. Open the oven door and remove the racks from inside the oven. 3. Pull the range out of its mounting location so that you can access the rear of the unit. 4. Remove the left side panel. To remove the spark module: a) Disconnect the wire connectors from the module terminals. b) Remove the mounting screw, slide the module out from under the tab, and remove it from the housing.

Byron Weaver July 29, 2011 for Model Number sf368leps3 Hi, Byron again. I was wondering why the broiler igniter also won't ignite the broiler burner even though I hear it clicking and trying to light and gas is being released, but you're not recommending that I replace it also, along with the oven igniter. Thank you for your patience and help with this.
1 Answer Byron, Have you checked or has anyone reccomended checks at the gas distribution valve WPW10293048 ? The solenoid coils will disrupt the voltage to the igniters if they are weak(less than 200 ohms resistance) or there is a loose connection on the wires. And your sure the power corcd is plugged into a properly polarized and grounded 120 VAC outlet, and the arae of the burner tube(s) where the igniter is located is clean. Thanks and Good Luck.

Byron W. July 28, 2011 for Model Number sf368leps3 When I press bake and start, there is a faint single click, but no gas release or ignition. When I press Broil, there are 2 or 3 clicks from the igniter, gas release, but no ignition. I was advised by AppliancePartsPros.com to replace the spark module, which I did, but it is still displaying the same symptoms and of course the oven still won't light. Does anyone have any idea of what the problem with the oven might be?
1 Answer Hi Byron. The oven igniter needs replaced. This part # is WP9758079. Thank you. Read More...
