Replacement parts commonly used in Kenmore gas cooktops

• Igniter electrode. The igniter electrode creates an ignition spark to light the burner when it receives current from the spark module.
• Burner ignition switch. The burner ignition switch sends current to the spark module to light the burner when you turn on the burner control valve.
• Burner cap. The burner cap sits on top of the burner head and helps distribute the flame evenly for cooking.
• Spark module. The spark module provides electrical current to the igniter electrode to light the burner.
