GE Range Gas Igniter (WB02X10822)

The GE Range Gas Igniter is the component that creates the spark needed to light the burners on your gas range or dual fuel range. When you turn a burner knob, the igniter receives an electrical signal and produces a rapid spark that ignites the gas flowing to the burner. Without a working igniter, the burner will not light and the range cannot be used safely.

GE range gas igniters can wear out over time from repeated sparking, exposure to heat, grease buildup, or moisture from spills and steam. A cracked or dirty igniter tip is one of the most common causes of ignition failure, and the igniter module can also weaken from years of normal use, leaving it unable to produce a strong enough spark to light the burner reliably.

These symptoms can help you decide if a faulty igniter matches your problem:

- Burner clicks repeatedly but does not light

- Burner takes much longer than usual to ignite

- Igniter sparks constantly even when the knob is in the off position

- One or more burners will not light at all

- Visible cracks, chips, or heavy residue on the igniter tip

- Burner lights unevenly or with a weak, inconsistent flame

- Clicking sound continues after the burner has already lit
