GE WB13X24924 Range Igniter Glowbar

General Electric Igniter Glowbar Range WB13X24924

The General Electric Igniter Glowbar Range WB13X24924 is an essential component for ensuring the proper ignition of your General Electric range. This glowbar is engineered to deliver consistent ignition performance, promote efficient operation, and extend the lifespan of the range. Specifically designed for General Electric ranges, the WB13X24924 model is manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring compatibility and optimal function. The WB13X24924 igniter glowbar is a small, rod-shaped component located near the burners. When the oven knob is turned to ignite a burner, the igniter module sends a high-voltage current through the glowbar. This current heats the glow bar to a high temperature, causing it to glow red. The intense heat from the glowing igniter then ignites the gas flowing from the burner, initiating the cooking process.
