How to replace a bad igniter switch on your Kenmore Elite gas cooktop

  • Unplug the cooktop's power cord from the wall outlet and then close the gas supply shut-off valve.
  • Remove all the cooktop grates and then lift the gas burner caps off the burner heads. Remove the screws that hold the burner heads in place and then remove the burner heads.
  • Pull the control knobs off of the burner control valves. Remove the screws that secure the main top to the top of the burner orifice holders. Lift the main top off of the cooktop and set it aside.
  • Pull the spark igniter switch off of the burner control valve and disconnect its wires.
  • Push the new igniter switch onto the stem of the burner control valve and connect the wires.
  • Position the main top on top of the burner orifice holders. Insert and tighten the screws that secure the main top to the orifice holders. Push the control knobs on the burner control valves.
  • Position the burner heads in the correct locations, screw them into place and tighten the screws firmly. Cover the burner heads with the burner caps in the correct locations. Set the grates in place on the cooktop.
  • Plug the power cord into the wall outlet and open the gas shut-off valve.

Common replacement parts for Kenmore Elite gas cooktops

  • Spark module. The spark module receives a signal from the burner switches and sends voltage to the igniter electrodes to make them spark to ignite the surface burner.
  • Igniter electrode. The igniter electrode gets current from the spark module and sends a spark to the burner head to ignite the burner.
  • Burner ignition switch. The ignition switch detects when you turn on a burner valve and sends current to the spark igniter to light the burner.
  • Burner control valve. The burner control valve controls gas flow to the burner head.
