Kitchenaid Range KGSI901PBS02 Won't start or doesn't start

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. 

The Spark Igniter is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas ranges. Located inside the oven cavity it initiates combustion using high-voltage electricity. This is a broil igniter for the upper (broil) burner.

Causes of malfunction relate primarily to element degradation from extended heating cycles. Exposure to grease or other residue accumulation shortens the service life by insulating the hot surface.

Symptoms involve:

• Inability to ignite gas burners using the automatic igniter
• Safety issues arise requiring manual lighting with matches or lighters
• Difficulties baking or broiling without consistent flame generation
• Element replacement prevents further problems and safety hazards

This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement this part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air and some Kenmore models.

The Oven Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This component is responsible for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, sending data to the control board to maintain the desired cooking temperature. It ensures accurate temperature readings, which are essential for baking, roasting, and other cooking functions. 

Causes of a bad Oven Temperature Sensor include prolonged exposure to high temperatures, which can degrade its responsiveness over time. Additionally, physical damage or wear and tear can lead to inaccurate temperature readings.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Temperature Sensor include:

• The oven temperature is inconsistent with the setting.
• Food is not cooking evenly or as expected.
• The oven fails to reach the set temperature, or it overshoots it significantly.
• Error codes related to temperature regulation appear on the oven's display.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This spark electrode mounts at the bake burner and creates the ignition spark to light the oven flame. Replacing a worn or cracked electrode restores fast, reliable bake ignition and consistent oven temperatures.

• Generates a high-voltage spark to ignite gas at the bake burner
• Helps correct symptoms such as no heat on Bake, repeated clicking without ignition, or intermittent bake heating
• Wear, contamination, cracks, or misalignment of the tip can prevent proper ignition
• Restores dependable oven lighting and reduces delayed ignition

• Disconnect power and shut off gas supply before servicing
• Remove oven racks, oven bottom panel, and flame spreader to access the bake burner area
• Note wire routing and electrode position; transfer any bracket as needed and secure the new electrode
• Align the electrode tip close to the burner, then restore power and test ignition

This T.O.D. thermostat is a temperature-sensitive safety switch used in select ovens and ranges. It opens or closes the circuit at a set temperature to protect components and help restore safe, reliable operation when the original device fails. What it does:

• Monitors appliance temperature and switches the circuit at its preset threshold
• Helps prevent overheat conditions that can trigger shutdowns or error codes
• Common failure signs: oven won't heat or shuts off mid-cycle; cooling fan won't run or runs constantly; recurring over-temperature warnings
• On some models it controls a heating circuit; on others it governs the cooling fan

• 1 thermostat (T.O.D.), SPST

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the appliance to cool completely before service
• Access location varies by model
• Transfer wires one at a time to the new thermostat and mount it flush for proper sensing
• Inspect for blocked vents, a failed cooling fan, or shorted elements before returning the unit to service
