WPW10324262 Whirlpool Bake or Broil Spark Electrode System

The Bake or Broil Spark Electrode System is a component found in various Whirlpool appliances, such as Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Whirlpool also manufactures products for brands like Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. This system, specifically the Bake Igniter, is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement part intended for use in Whirlpool's gas ovens. Its primary function is to ignite the bake burner, which is crucial for the oven's baking capability.

The Bake Igniter includes a spark electrode that generates the necessary spark to ignite the surface burner. If the igniters are not sparking effectively, cleaning the oven burners might help in aligning the spark correctly.

In cases where the igniters do not produce a spark at all, it may be necessary to inspect or replace them to restore proper function. Additionally, maintaining a voltage of 120 VAC is essential for the igniters' optimal performance. The efficiency and performance of your appliance heavily rely on the proper functioning of the Bake Igniter. This part is compatible with several models from Whirlpool's range, including those from Maytag, KitchenAid, and Jenn-Air.
