  3. Disconnect wiring:
    Squeeze the locking tabs and pull the wires free to disconnect them from the spark module.

  4. Remove mounting screws:
    Unscrew and remove any hardware securing the module in place.

  5. Detach the old spark module:
    Lift the old spark module away from its mounting location.

  6. Position the new spark module:
    Place the new spark module into the same space, aligning the mounting holes.

  7. Reconnect wiring:
    Firmly push the wires onto the matching terminals of the new spark module.

  8. Secure the module:
    Use the original screws or fasteners to secure the new module in place.

Most Common Solution

If your gas oven is not heating up and you do not see a spark near the bake or broiler burner tube when the oven is on, using a multimeter can help determine if electricity is reaching the spark module. If the module is receiving power but the oven still isn't heating, it is likely that the spark module is faulty and needs to be replaced.
