Description

This surface ignitor is the replaceable spark electrode that lights gas burners on compatible ranges and cooktops. It restores reliable spark delivery so burners ignite quickly and consistently when the control knob is turned. What it does:

• Produces the high-voltage spark that ignites the burner's gas flow.
• Replaces a cracked, chipped, or non-sparking electrode that prevents burner ignition.
• Helps stop intermittent or weak sparking that causes delayed or failed lighting.
• Works with the stove's ignition module to complete the ignition circuit.

What's included:

• One surface ignitor/spark electrode

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance and turn off gas supply before starting work.
• Handle the ceramic/porcelain insulator carefully—avoid touching the tip with bare hands or dropping the part.
• Install by accessing the burner area; ensure connections are secure and routed away from heat.
