WP9758079 - Genuine OEM Whirlpool Range Spark Electrode

Product Description

The WP9758079 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Range Spark Electrode is an essential ignition component designed to provide reliable lighting for your range’s surface burners. This authentic Whirlpool replacement part ensures strong, consistent spark generation, allowing your burners to ignite safely and efficiently every time. Compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and Amana gas ranges, the WP9758079 electrode is engineered to meet the original manufacturer’s specifications for performance, durability, and fit.

The spark electrode plays a critical role in your cooktop’s ignition system. When you turn the burner knob, the electrode creates an electrical spark powerful enough to ignite the gas, enabling stable flame operation. Over time, spark electrodes can wear out or accumulate buildup from regular cooking, leading to ignition failures or weak sparking. Replacing a faulty electrode with this Genuine OEM part ensures your burners light quickly and consistently.

Function & Importance

The WP9758079 spark electrode delivers the precise electrical charge needed for gas ignition. A properly functioning electrode ensures:

• Quick and reliable burner lighting

• Safe ignition without gas buildup

• Consistent flame performance across cooking temperatures

A worn or damaged electrode can cause delayed ignition, constant clicking, or failure to ignite—issues that can become both inconvenient and unsafe.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for Replacement

You may need a new spark electrode if you notice:

• Burners clicking but not lighting

• Intermittent ignition or delayed sparking

• Burner ignites only when using a lighter

• Weak or no visible spark

• Visible cracks, corrosion, or damage on the old electrode

These signs indicate the electrode is no longer producing the spark needed for proper ignition.
