Whirlpool WP7403P279-60 Range Surface Burner Igniter Switch
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP7403P279-60 is a replacement igniter switch designed for Whirlpool surface burner cooktops. It is also known as a spark ignition switch and is important to the performance of the cooktop. When a burner knob is switched on, the switch sends a bolt of energy to the igniter, resulting in a spark. Cooking begins when this spark ignites the gas coming from the burner valve. The inability of an igniter switch to produce spark can impede burner ignition. Replacing a faulty switch with the WP7403P279-60 restores full function to your cooktop, assuring safe and dependable burner ignition. Manufacturers of appliance parts usually have those components in stock.
