Whirlpool WPY07491300 Spark Igniter Oem

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL WPY07491300 is an OEM spark igniter designed to restore reliable ignition in compatible Whirlpool appliances. The spark igniter generates the electrical spark that lights the burner, a critical function in gas-powered cooking appliances such as ranges and cooktops. When the original igniter fails due to normal wear, carbon buildup, or physical damage, replacing it with an OEM-specification part ensures the ignition system returns to factory performance. This part is manufactured to original equipment specifications and is intended to be a direct-fit replacement for the failed component.

This spark igniter is suited for use in residential gas appliances where the original WPY07491300 igniter was factory-installed. Typical install scenarios include burner ignition failures on gas ranges and cooktops where the burner will not spark or sparks inconsistently. A qualified appliance repair technician or experienced DIYer comfortable with gas appliance disassembly would typically handle this repair.
