General Electric Range JGSP44BEY3BB Won't start or doesn't start

The Electrode is an OEM part for GE gas cooktops and ranges. This component is responsible for igniting the surface burners. They are also often referred to as spark igniters.

Causes of a bad electrode can include cracks, mineral deposits, or damage accumulated from regular usage over many heating cycles. Heat exposure degrades the material integrity of the tip.

Symptoms of a bad electrode include:

• Surface burners failing to light or ignite when turned on
• The igniter glows but flames do not ignite
• Intermittent or inconsistent ignition of burners
• Visible wear, cracks or corrosion on the electrode tip

This GE OEM replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Oven Sensor Assembly is an OEM part for GE ovens. This part monitors the oven's internal temperature, ensuring it matches the set temperature on the oven's controls. By accurately measuring the heat inside the oven, the sensor assembly communicates with the oven's control system to adjust the temperature accordingly. 

Over time, the oven sensor can become faulty due to wear or damage, leading to inaccurate temperature readings. This can manifest as unevenly cooked food, longer cooking times, or an oven that fails to reach the desired temperature setting.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Sensor Assembly include:

• The oven temperature is inconsistent with the setting
• Food is not cooking evenly or as expected
• The oven fails to heat to the set temperature
• Error codes appearing on the oven display related to temperature regulation

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This spark igniter creates the arc that lights the gas burner, restoring quick, reliable ignition in your range or oven. Replacing a worn electrode helps eliminate hard starts, intermittent lighting, and nonstop clicking.

• Generates a high-voltage spark at the burner to ignite gas
• Helps resolve burner won't light, delayed ignition, or intermittent sparking
• Can reduce continuous clicking caused by a weak, damaged, or mispositioned electrode
• Typical signs include no visible spark or a cracked ceramic insulator

• Disconnect power and shut off gas; allow the appliance to cool before service
• Handle the ceramic insulator carefully; avoid bending or striking the electrode tip
• Position the tip near the burner port; ensure a solid ground and secure bracket
• Reconnect the lead firmly, then test for a strong spark before reassembly
