GE gas range igniter and burner repair
GE range igniter replacement is measured with a meter rather than judged by eye: the igniter has to draw enough current to open the safety valve, and a weak one glows beautifully without ever opening it. A gas oven that will not light, or a surface burner that clicks and never catches. The commonest answer on the oven side is an igniter that still glows but no longer draws enough current to open the valve — which is why it looks like it is working and is not.

How this visit actually goes
The same order every time, so nothing is opened and nothing is charged before you have seen the figure and said yes.
-
01
Measure the igniter's current draw
The whole point: it must pull enough to open the safety valve. Glow is not proof.
-
02
Check the valve and the safety
Only after the igniter, because it is the more expensive and less likely of the two.
-
03
On surface burners, dry and clean first
Persistent clicking after a spill is usually moisture or debris around the electrode, not a module.
-
04
Test every burner and the oven together
A spark module serving several burners fails as a group, and that pattern is the diagnosis.

05
What GE range igniter replacement involves
The igniter is measured for the current it draws rather than judged by whether it glows, because it has to pull enough to open the safety valve and a weak one does neither.
-
06
Every burner tested, not only the one
A spark module serving several burners fails as a group, and the pattern across all of them is what separates a module from an electrode.

Freestanding and slide-in ranges in every fuel GE sells: electric, gas, induction and dual fuel, single and double oven. This is the appliance that reports itself most clearly — GE publishes a table of the codes a range displays — and also the one where the display is most often misread, because half those codes point at the same circuit.

About GE gas range igniter and burner repair
A glowing igniter can still be a failed one
This is the part that misleads people most on a gas range. A hot surface igniter that glows brightly can still be drawing too little current to open the valve, so the burner heats, waits and never lights. Glow is not proof, and the meter is what settles it. Clicking surface burners are a different story and usually mean moisture or a dirty electrode — which dries out and cleans up, and does not need a part at all.

Before you book
Questions about GE gas range igniter and burner repair
The oven igniter glows but the gas never lights.
That is the classic weak igniter. It is glowing and still failing, and it is measured rather than judged by eye.
A burner clicks constantly after cleaning.
Moisture in the electrode. Leave the burner parts out to dry fully; it usually stops on its own within a day.
