This is a surface burner igniter, also known as a top burner ignitor and stove top spark electrode. It is used to generate the spark that lights the surface burner. If your stove will not start, element does not heat, or gas igniter glows but does not light, replacing the igniter can solve these issues. For this installation, you will need a Phillips screwdriver and needle nose pliers. First place the grate on top of the burner, then lift the burner and disconnect the wires. Next remove the two Phillips screws from the bottom of burner, pull igniter out of the burner and wiggle in the new one. Refer to the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer for more instructions.

Installed top burner igniter and can't get spark .Other burner works fine .Could new part be defective any ideas
For model number jdg8130ads
Hello Roi, thank you for contacting us. The electrode only makes the spark, unless it was corroded it would not be defective. Its the part that sends the spark to the electrode. The part you would need is a spark module PS11744058 Hope this helps!

Our jenn air gas range has two burners that won't light. Do we need to replace both ignitors? They quit working at the same time? Or could there be another problem?

One burner will not auto light but the burner behind it will. When i turn the dial to ignite there is no clicking sound.
For model number JGD8345ADB
Hi Debby, thank you for your question. There are a couple of parts to check in this case. First you should check your burner electrode. Then you should take a look at your igniter switches/harness. If those parts are fine then you may have to look into your spark module being the issue. We hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

No spark from burners on left side don't work but if I swap the burners from the right it works.
For model number JDS9860AAB
Hi Patrick. Try to clean out the igniters if this does not work than you will have to replace the igniter. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair.

One burner ignites the other doesn't. Does that mean it is the top spark ignitor? This is a jenn-air where their are 2 burners in a tray
For model number jds9860aap
Hello Thomas, Thank you for your inquiry. We have researched the model number you have provided and if only one burner is igniting, the most likely parts are the burner spark igniter, and the spark module. We hope this helps and if you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!

I was cleaning up my stove (jenn air/Maytag jds9860acp) and somehow two burners on same side did now start afterwards. I thought the igniters were somehow damaged because of wet. Bought two new ones and installed. Still did not work. The igniter module is fine for sure because other two burners work just fine. What is the mysterious thing and how I can fix this problem. Thanks!
For model number JDS9860ACP
Hello Shengli, Thank you for the question. I suggest testing the Igniter Switch PartSelect Number PS11744350. These sit behind the knobs on the valve. Check the switch to see if it has continuity in the light position. Hope this helps!
Thank you for your reply. The igniter switch must be good because the good burners work at both left and right sides. I believe the voltage is there at the ignitor and the gap looks good as well. But just no sparks. Can you please advise? Thank you!
For model number JDS9860ACP
Hi Shengli, I could only recommend to replace the burner igniters on the non-working burners. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair!

Gas burner head on stove top rusted out producing blue flame where there shouldn't be
Removed stove top module and unscrewed the bottom panel. Burner head rotated out fairly easily. I ordered both the burner unit and the igniter just to be safe even though the old igniter still worked. I used the other module as a guide to reassemble the unit. The new burner head was little difficult to rotate back in and did not rotate quite as far as the original so the gas pipe was just a fraction out of alignment but there is some flex so it worked out OK when it was re-installed. Everything worked perfectly when I turned on the burner and there are no gas leaks and no blue flames where there shouldn't be!
burner would not light; ignitor did not produce spark
Take a few screws off the back of the slide in burner module. Take off the back. Unscrew the ignitor screw, remove ignitor carefully, replace with the new ignitor, put the screw back in, put the back back on, try it out! Ours worked after a couple of tries - don't know if the ignitor had to "rev up" by several sparks or we just didn't have it properly installed at first. Anyway, very easy. Did it in my pajamas on a Saturday morning.

Burners were leaking gas, igniters didn't work
I had to use a pipe wrench to remove the burners. They were pretty stubborn to remove from the insert. Once this was done, I installed the ingniters into the underside of the burner, then installed the venturi tubes. After that, installing the burners only took simple placement and a quarter turn to lock them in. I adjusted the burner with a screwdriver and wrench as per the manuals instructions and that is all it took. I did a repair that cost me approx $150.00 to all 4 burners instead of buying two complete new burner inserts for $600.00 and it took less than 1 hour to do. I would do it again anytime.

The burner igniter would not spark to light the burner.
I had to unscrew 4 screws on the burner unit and then 2 screws on each igniter. slip the olds out and the new ones in and then replace all the screws. And wa la they sparked and I was cooking again.

burner would not ignite
Even though the ceramic insulator looked new (white), it had become non-functional, replacement was simple, 2 phillips screws, reassemble and test. Now I will have to order the other 3.

Lack of burner gas ignition
I used the other good burner assembly to isolate the problem to the igniters or the igniter block. I ordered both parts from Parts Select. They shipped the parts promptly and after 10 minutes of install time, the burners worked flawlessly. Thank You Parts Select.

Replaced igniter in right rear burner
Simply remove the box containing the two right burners. Access the igniter by removing about 8 screws and pull the coupler for the igniter off with a pair of needel nose pliers. Replace with new igniter using the same tool. Re-assemble the box by screwing in the screws and give it a try. Worked great. Once slight hitch, be sure you don't leave a second screw driving in the box. As it will raddle. So I had to remove and reassemble twice. I'm not a surgeon! Thanks for the fast delivery!

Igniter insulation had cracked and spark was shorting out on the flame holder whatchmacallit.
The flame holder twists about 1/2 inch to left and lifts off. I removed the two screws that holds the igniter on and removed it and installed the new igniter. There was one complication: when I put it back together, there was no spark. I removed the ground wire and cleaned and scraped it and replaced it and still no spark. But, for no apparent reason the spark returned and has been okay since.

It works!
Getting ready to sell an 18 yr old home with a Jennaire. One set of burners didn’t work so I replaced it with the bbq unit. A week later I took the unit apart and figured out igniters were bad. Got new ones, installed them and took unit back to home. It worked! Now I don’t feel guilty for a stove that wasn’t totally there.
