Description
The Spark Module Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for generating the spark needed to ignite the gas burners on the cooktop. The spark module sends electrical signals to the igniters, creating the spark that lights the gas for cooking.
Over time, the spark module can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or normal wear and tear. When the spark module becomes faulty, it can lead to various problems with igniting the burners.
Symptoms of a bad spark module include:
- Burners not lighting or taking a long time to light
- No clicking sound when turning the burner knob
- Burners only lighting intermittently
- Visible sparks or arcing from the module
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
NOTE: This part is only compatible with serial numbers starting with 21 and up on model 8351VV.
