Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Spark Electrode (Part Number: OEM18032769)

1 Answer

Sue, You can remove the knob and adjust the flame size. Use a small screwdriver and hold the shaft. Insert the screwdriver down the center of the shaft till it ends [flatblade] then adjust. If the rear does not ignite but sparks the electrode would most likely need to be replaced. When the housing cracks it will arc before the end of the ignitor.

George, Check the spark switch on the burner valve for continuity when the knob is in the light position. Check the harness to the electrode for continuity. If all those tests are good then the module is most likely the issue.
