Whirlpool W11114379 Surface Igniter

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL W11114379 is a surface igniter designed for use in gas cooking appliances. The igniter generates the electrical spark needed to ignite the gas burner at the surface cooking element. It is a direct-replacement component intended for service technicians and appliance repair professionals performing burner ignition repairs on Whirlpool-branded gas ranges and cooktops. The part restores reliable ignition function when the original igniter has cracked, failed to spark, or shows signs of carbon fouling or physical damage.

This surface igniter is suited for residential gas range and cooktop applications where the factory-original igniter requires replacement. It is installed as part of routine burner service and is typically encountered in residential kitchen appliance repair. Technicians servicing Whirlpool gas cooking equipment should verify the part number against the appliance model tag before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance service technician. Disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker and shut off the gas supply valve before beginning any igniter replacement. Handle the igniter body carefully to avoid cracking the ceramic element, as physical stress can render the part non-functional. Reinstall all burner components and confirm proper spark operation before returning the appliance to service.
