Whirlpool 4157608 Surface Igniter Gas Range

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL 4157608 is a surface igniter designed for gas ranges and cooktops. It generates the spark needed to ignite burners at the cooktop surface, replacing a failed or degraded igniter in the existing assembly. At 5.75 x 4.0 x 1.0 inches, it is sized for direct OEM-style fitment. This part is installed by appliance technicians and experienced HVAC or gas appliance service professionals handling residential cooking equipment.
