Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Gas Range Spark Module (Part Number: OEM12030111)

David Chorba for Model Number Jenn Air Gas Cooktop JGD8130ADS

One burner will not ignite (doesn't spark). The other three igniters spark fine. When I switch the burner units (each unit has two burners) from one side to the other, the same burner will not ignite on the opposite side, but the other burner unit works fine. I ordered and replaced the ignition unit for that burner, but it did not fix the problem. It still doesn't spark. All other burners spark in unison and work properly. I was told it might be the spark module, but that doesn't make sense to me since it is independent of either side. Could it be the Block Terminal? Any suggestions?

Kirk, There are 6 (six) terminals on the spark module. The four(4) smaller 1/8 in. terminals are for the igniter wires, one to each igniter. The two(2) larger 1/4 in. terminals are for the line(120 VAC) from the igniter switches and neutral (N) wire to the line cord. The smaller terminals have no specific terminal location location on the module(on this style ignition system) But the L and N need to be on the proper terminals on the module. If the igniters continue to spark after you re check the wiring, you'll need to access the igniter switches on the the burner valves and check to make sure the switches are all in the "open" position when the valves are in the "OFF" position. If the switches check OK, the wiring is OK and proper, then you'll need to replace the spark module.

Mary, You may need the spark module 8215557, but with your particular complaint, you need to check the igniter switches WPW10180490 on the burner valves first. If one or more switch is stuck "closed" (on position) or a wire is shorted to chassis ground, the igniters will continue to spark.

Hello Bryan. No, the unit is designed to let out gas as soon as the knob is turned, and has to be on lite for the unit to lite. If the child turns the knob, gas will come out.

Hello Cgaretto, The spark module would be what allows the unit to click and ignite. You could also check your ignitor to ensure that the ignitor is drawing between 3.2 and 3.56 amps.

Hello Leo, Check to make sure that your switches are on the gas valves properly and that there are no pinched wires. Also ohm out switches to make sure that they are good. If this checks ok then you may need to replace the switches or you may have received a bad spark module.
