{"product_id":"wpw10324262","title":"Whirlpool Bake Igniter (WPW10324262)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Bake Igniter is the component in your gas range that lights the bake burner and allows the oven to reach and hold the temperature you set. It works by drawing enough electrical current to glow hot, which simultaneously opens the gas valve and ignites the gas flowing to the burner at the bottom of the oven cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Bake Igniter can weaken or fail over time due to normal heat cycling, exposure to grease and moisture, or gradual degradation of the igniter element itself. A weak igniter may still glow but no longer draw enough current to open the gas valve fully, which causes slow ignition, inconsistent heating, or a complete failure to light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese symptoms can help you decide if a faulty bake igniter matches your problem:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Oven takes a long time to ignite or does not light at all\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- You smell gas briefly before the burner eventually lights\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Oven temperature is lower than expected or uneven during baking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Igniter glows orange but burner never ignites\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Oven shuts off mid-cycle and will not relight on its own\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Bake function fails while broil still works normally\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Whirlpool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42517133590613,"sku":"WPW10324262","price":71.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/6189\/2437\/files\/whirlpool-bake-igniter-wpw10324262.jpg?v=1779254161","url":"https:\/\/homepartsplus.com\/products\/wpw10324262","provider":"Home Parts Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
