Ge WB13K10014 Top Burner Spark Electrode OEM Part

I had concluded that the igniter was going bad and ordered a new one. I also watched the video on how to replace the ignitor. The video explained that after you removed all the screws to the burner assemblies, you needed to lift the range top and replace the ignitor. They did explain that there were clips holding the top down, but implied if you exerted enough force it would pop open. I tried several times, different ways and it would not release. Then I notice that the clips were located in the front corner instead of on the side. They simply had to be collapsed from the front with a screw driver and the top came loose. I think others would appreciate a section in the video that showed some of the different types of clips and the best way to release them. If you don't understand the type of clip you have, you WILL chip the porcelain and be unable to remove the top. Makes for a very bad day when you wife sees the chips. Once I had the top open, it wasn't too difficult to unplug the old ignitor and replace it. Another tip that newbies need to know. When re-attaching the burner units to the range top, it is best to insert each screw and only screw them down half way until you have everything together. Then you can tighten them all down. If you tighten the first screw all the way, the other holes may not be lined up properly and you will just have to loosen the tight screw(s) to set the remaining screws. I selected #2 as to how easy it was for me to make the repair and that was because of the top clip issues, but I am an experienced carpenter and contractor. A novice might be at a #3 - #4.

Replaced the spark module

Replaced spark module and all electrodes/igniters.

Replaced ignitor by unscrewing top of range and pushing from underneath. Super easy switcheroo.

After 2 years of lighting my GE profile ng cooktop my wife finally put her foot down and said, "get this thing fixed now" or go out buy a new high end cooktop for me....Being the spendthrift I am, I quickly compared service call and parts expense to the cost of the high end cooktop and realized This was gonna be expensive either way! So, in true diy fashion I watched the videos on appliancepartspros and realized how easy of a job this actually was... $82 and 1.5 days later the problem was fixed and the old cooktop igniters working better than ever!! Would have been even cheaper, but went ahead and replaced the igniter switch harness, the ceramic igniters, and clips along with the igniter module...super easy and saved a bundle...
