GE Stove Repair in Toronto — No spark (igniter failure)

• No spark and no click on ONE burner when its knob is turned, while the other burners spark normally, isolates to that position's spark ignition switch -- on GE/Hotpoint/Profile sealed-burner ranges the switch rides the burner valve stem and closes to feed the spark module when the knob is pushed and turned. GE uses two designs: the single 12-o'clock switch WB24X10091 (AP3186866; supersedes WB24X10089 / 946599 / PS651383), replaced per burner position, or the ganged 4-burner spark-ignition switch-and-harness WB24X10143 (AP4264976 / PS1019312; replaces 1195031 / AH1019312 / EA1019312) that comes out as one unit. An open or pitted contact never signals the module, so that one position is silent -- no tick, no spark. We meter each switch for continuity at the lit (pushed-and-turned) position before ordering, and identify which design the range uses, since a WB24X10091 range only needs the one bad switch while a WB24X10143 range takes the whole harness.
• DEAD silence across the WHOLE cooktop -- every burner turned on, no click and no spark anywhere -- is the surface-burner spark module signature, not a switch or electrode. One module pulses high voltage to all the surface electrodes at once, so when it fails internally the entire top goes quiet. GE carries this as WB13K10029 (AP4363383; replaces 1473628 / AH2339789 / PS2339789 / 223C4955P002) on many GE gas ranges, or the WB13T10076 (AP3993727 / PS1480954; supersedes WB13X10011 / WB13X10012) on the GE / Hotpoint / RCA / some-Kenmore platform. Because total-cooktop no-spark is the one fault that kills every position together, we still condemn the module only after confirming the switches and electrodes are good and the range has clean grounded power, since per RepairClinic/PartSelect the electrode and spark wire are checked before the module is replaced.
• A burner that clicks but the high-voltage spark visibly jumps to the burner base or chassis instead of bridging the cap gap -- so it never lights -- is a cracked or carbon-tracked electrode leaking to ground. The GE burner igniter/electrode WB02X10822 (AP3416919 / PS224072; supersedes WB02X11363 / WB02X10794 / WB02X10780 / WB02X11267, supplied with spring and clip) splits at its white ceramic insulator from spillover and thermal shock, so the pulse arcs to the nearest metal rather than the gap and the gas never catches. We compare to the neighbouring burners: if the siblings spark to the cap normally and only one flashes its arc to the body, the cracked electrode for that single position is the failed part -- we also pull the insulated spark lead and confirm it isn't grounding to the chassis, which steals the arc the same way, before swapping the electrode.
• Multiple adjacent burners losing spark together -- but the module testing good -- points to the shared electrodes-and-harness assembly WB18K10098 (AP5790579; supersedes WB18K10058 / 3025630 / PS8754234), the high-voltage harness that carries the spark from the module out to each surface electrode on GE / Hotpoint / Cafe / Monogram ranges. A chafed, melted, or disconnected lead in this harness opens the high-voltage path to those positions, so they fall silent while the module is still healthy and other burners spark. We trace continuity of the HV leads from the module to each electrode and replace the WB18K10098 harness rather than condemning individual electrodes one at a time when the break is in the shared wiring.
• A burner that went silent right after a boil-over or a wet wipe-down -- no spark on that position -- is often moisture bridging the under-knob switch or soaking the electrode, not a failed part. Per GE support content #17827 a damp burner head, moisture in the ignition/flame ports, or an electrode not seated flush will keep a burner from sparking and lighting, and GE notes it can take up to 10-12 clicks to light a clean burner. We dry the head (GE suggests a warm oven for ~30 minutes), clear the ports with a fine wire, and press the white ceramic electrode flush with a clockwise twist so it sits level with the cooktop, before condemning the WB24X10091 switch or WB02X10822 electrode -- a $0 dry-and-reseat clears a large share of these 'suddenly no spark' calls.
• No spark with the white ceramic electrode sitting proud, cocked, or unseated is a mechanical seating fault, not an electrical failure -- GE's #17827 guidance is explicit that the electrode must sit flush with the cooktop, and prescribes pressing it down with a clockwise twisting motion until it is level. An electrode standing too high, or a burner cap rotated off its locating notch onto the wrong-size WB16K10055 head, leaves the spark gap wrong so the pulse can't bridge to the gas and the burner reads as 'no spark / won't light.' We reseat the electrode flush, match each cap square to its own head, and re-test before quoting any WB02X10822 electrode or WB13K10029 module.
• Total no-spark on a range that was just moved, re-plugged, or is on a questionable outlet is a power-and-ground check, not a part. The GE surface spark module needs correct polarity and a true ground to fire; a tripped breaker, a reversed-polarity or ungrounded receptacle, or a two-prong adapter / extension cord leaves a perfectly good WB13K10029 / WB13T10076 module unable to spark any burner. We meter the receptacle for live, neutral, polarity and ground and confirm the range is on a properly grounded dedicated outlet before condemning the module -- a whole-top no-spark with a dead-quiet click is as often a supply/ground fault as a failed module.

GE no spark (igniter failure) in Toronto — the local specifics

• The recurring GE-in-Toronto no-spark pattern we see is the single dead-silent burner that won't click while its neighbours spark fine -- a wet or pitted WB24X10091 spark switch under the knob -- showing up most after deep stovetop cleaning and winter condensation in semi/basement kitchens; the genuinely dead WHOLE-top (no click anywhere) is the less-common WB13K10029 / WB13T10076 module or a polarity/ground fault on a recently-moved range, which we separate from the switch call by whether one position or every position is silent.
• To a GE no-spark call we carry the WB24X10091 single spark switch, a WB02X10822 electrode, and a WB13T10076 / WB13K10029 spark module, plus a meter to check switch continuity and outlet polarity/ground first; the WB24X10143 ganged switch-harness and WB18K10098 electrode-harness are pulled to model/serial off the data plate from the local GE channel rather than carried blind.
