Whirlpool W11610134 Range Ignition Surface
Product Description
The Whirlpool W11610134 is a range ignition surface, also known as a glowing bar igniter. This small but critical component is responsible for lighting your Whirlpool range's gas burners. When you turn a burner knob, an electrical current is directed to the igniting surface. This current heats a short filament inside the igniter, causing it to glow red hot. The gas flows from the burner valve and passes over the heated filament, igniting the gas and causing a flame. A defective ignition surface might cause annoying lighting troubles with your burners. Replacing a faulty igniter with this genuine Whirlpool part ensures that your range works securely and effectively again.
