General Electric WB13K10021 Igniter Electrode Top

Product Description

The General Electric WB13K10021 is a top igniter electrode designed for use in GE freestanding and slide-in gas ranges. This component generates the high-voltage spark that ignites the burner when the control knob is turned, making it a critical part of reliable burner operation. When an electrode cracks, corrodes, or fails to spark consistently, burners will not light or will require repeated attempts. Replacing the WB13K10021 restores proper ignition performance. The part measures 6.0 x 6.0 x 1.0 inches and installs directly on the range cooktop surface above the burner assembly. Licensed appliance technicians and experienced service pros are the typical installers.

This electrode is intended for residential freestanding gas ranges in the GE JGB and EGR product lines. It is a direct OEM-style replacement suited to service calls involving intermittent ignition, no-spark conditions, or physical damage to the existing electrode tip. The part fits a broad range of GE gas range models, making it a practical stock item for technicians who regularly service GE cooking equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance technician or licensed gas range service professional. Always disconnect the range from electrical power at the circuit breaker and confirm the gas supply is off before beginning any service work. Avoid touching the ceramic electrode tip with bare hands during installation, as skin oils can degrade the ceramic over time. Reconnect all wiring connectors fully and verify burner ignition function before returning the appliance to service.
