XPARTCO WB13K10003 Surface Burner Spark Electrode
The XPARTCO WB13K10003 is an aftermarket replacement spark electrode for the surface burners on GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore gas ranges. The electrode is the small ceramic-tipped component mounted at the burner head that actually creates the spark: when you turn the burner knob, the range's spark module sends a rapid series of high-voltage electrical pulses to the electrode, which arcs across a small gap to the metal burner cap. That spark ignites the gas flowing from the burner, and the clicking sound you hear while the knob is turned is literally the sound of that spark firing over and over until the burner catches.
Because the electrode's ceramic insulator is what keeps that high-voltage pulse contained to a precise spark path, even small damage matters: a hairline crack in the ceramic can let voltage leak to ground instead of arcing at the tip, carbon and grease buildup on the tip can insulate it just enough to weaken the spark, and the metal tip itself can corrode or erode after years of sparking. A failing electrode typically shows up as a burner that clicks normally but is slow to catch, catches with a small "whoof" as gas builds up before ignition, or doesn't spark at all while the other burners on the same range work fine. It directly replaces AP2020574, 244911, AH231266, EA231266, and PS231266. GE's internal part number for this electrode is WG02F05048.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WB13K10003 Surface Burner Spark Electrode fixes GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore gas ranges where a specific burner clicks but won't light, sparks weakly or intermittently, or ignites with a delayed "whoof" instead of catching right away. Ceramic-tipped spark electrode for the surface burner. Replaces AP2020574, 244911, AH231266, EA231266, PS231266. If a burner doesn't click at all, the problem is more likely the spark module or igniter switch — not this electrode.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
A specific surface burner clicks but won't ignite, while other burners work fine
Burner sparks weakly, intermittently, or only from certain knob positions
Delayed ignition — a noticeable pause with gas smell before the burner catches with a "whoof"
Clicking sound that continues well after the burner has already lit
Visible carbon buildup, grease, or discoloration on the electrode tip
Cracked, chipped, or damaged ceramic insulator visible at the base of the electrode
Electrode tip that looks corroded, pitted, or eroded compared to a new one
No spark at all from one specific burner position

Note: GE uses several visually similar spark electrodes across its gas range lineup that differ in overall length and mounting angle — for example, a related electrode sold under WB13K10014 is used on other burner positions and model platforms. Some customers have reported this electrode arriving slightly longer than the original but still fitting with room to spare; if your range has very tight clearance underneath, verify your exact model number and burner position before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Gas Appliance Turn off the gas supply to the range at the shutoff valve and unplug the range (or shut off its circuit breaker) before beginning any work near the burners or gas line. After reassembly, check every disturbed connection for leaks using a soapy water solution — bubbling indicates a leak. If you ever smell gas at any point during this repair, do not attempt to light the range or operate any switches; leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility or a qualified technician.
⚠️ Handle The Ceramic Insulator Carefully Wear work gloves. Remove the burner grate and burner cap from the affected position to access the electrode underneath. Photograph the electrode's mounting position and wire connection before removing anything. Most electrodes are held in place with a single screw and connect to the spark module via a simple push-on wire terminal — disconnect the wire first, then remove the mounting screw and lift the old electrode free. The ceramic insulator is more fragile than it looks; avoid gripping or prying on it directly, and handle it by the mounting bracket instead. Install the new WB13K10003 in the same position and orientation, making sure the tip sits at the correct gap and angle relative to the burner cap — too far and the spark won't reach the gas port, too close and it can short against the burner base. Reconnect the wire terminal, secure the mounting screw, and reinstall the burner cap and grate. Restore the gas supply and power, then test ignition at that burner position and check for leaks at any connection you touched before considering the job complete. Tools needed: Phillips or flat-blade screwdriver (model-dependent), soapy water for leak testing, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My burner doesn't click at all when I turn the knob. Is this the right part?
Probably not, at least not by itself. If a burner produces no clicking sound whatsoever, the issue is more likely the spark module (the component that generates the high-voltage pulses) or the igniter switch behind the knob, rather than the electrode itself — an electrode can't spark if it's never receiving a pulse in the first place. This electrode is the right fix when you hear clicking at that burner position but it fails to ignite, sparks weakly, or ignites with a delay.
The burner lights but with a small "whoof" and a delay. Is that dangerous?
A delayed ignition means gas is flowing and accumulating for a moment before the spark finally catches it, which is exactly the kind of small buildup that produces that "whoof" sound and flare. It's not something to ignore — a weak or intermittent electrode is the common cause, and replacing it restores immediate, reliable ignition. If delayed ignition continues after replacing the electrode, have the burner and gas supply checked by a qualified technician rather than continuing to use it.
Can I clean the electrode instead of replacing it?
Light cleaning can sometimes help if the tip is coated in grease or food residue — gently wiping the ceramic and metal tip with a dry cloth or a small amount of rubbing alcohol may restore a weak spark caused purely by surface buildup. But if you see a cracked or chipped ceramic insulator, a visibly eroded or pitted tip, or the spark still fails after cleaning, the electrode itself has degraded and cleaning won't fix that — replacement is the correct next step.
One burner sparks weakly but the others are fine. Does that rule out the spark module?
Yes, generally. The spark module typically drives all the surface burner electrodes from the same unit, so if only one position is affected while the rest spark normally, the shared module is very unlikely to be the cause — the problem is isolated to that one electrode (or its individual wire connection). If every burner is weak or unreliable at the same time, that points toward the spark module instead.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the ceramic insulator design, tip geometry, mounting bracket, and wire connector of the original WB13K10003 electrode used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore gas ranges.

1408 Gas Furnace Hot Surface Igniter
The 1408 is a replacement 120V silicon carbide hot surface igniter for gas furnaces. When the furnace calls for heat, the igniter glows white hot and lights the gas burners. Over time the element can crack or wear out, and a failed igniter is a common reason a gas furnace tries to start but never lights or never heats.
This igniter replaces the Robertshaw 41-408 and the Rheem 62-22868-93. It is a furnace igniter, not an oven igniter, so check the part number and the look of your old igniter before ordering.
Quick Answer
The 1408 Gas Furnace Igniter replaces a cracked, burned-out, or failed hot surface igniter on a gas furnace that tries to start but won't light. Replaces 41-408 and 62-22868-93. Classic symptom: the inducer runs, but the igniter never glows and the burners never light.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Furnace won't light, with no heat
Igniter does not glow when the furnace calls for heat
Cracked, broken, or visibly damaged igniter element
Furnace cycles through ignition attempts and then locks out

Installation Notes
⚠️ Turn Off Power and Gas Before Installing Switch off power to the furnace at the breaker and the furnace switch, and shut off the gas supply, before beginning. Wear work gloves. Let the old igniter cool, disconnect its lead, remove it, and fit the new igniter in the same position. Handle the new igniter only by its ceramic base, and avoid touching the silicon element, since skin oils can cause early failure. If the furnace still does not light, check the control board and the gas valve.
Frequently Asked Questions
My furnace won't light. Is this the part I need?
A cracked or burned-out igniter is a common cause. If the igniter doesn't glow when the furnace calls for heat, or the element is visibly cracked, it is likely the problem. If the igniter glows but the burners don't light, check the gas valve and control.
Does this replace the Robertshaw 41-408 and the Rheem 62-22868-93?
Yes, it is listed as a replacement for both. Because retailers do not list lead length or connector style, compare your old igniter to this one, or contact our support team, before ordering.
Why shouldn't I touch the igniter element?
Skin oils on the silicon element can cause the igniter to fail early. Handle it by the ceramic base only.
Will this fit my furnace?

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power and Shut Off the Gas Unplug the dryer and close the gas shutoff valve before beginning, and wear work gloves. Remove the panel that gives access to the burner assembly per your model's service guide, disconnect the igniter's wire connector, and remove the old igniter and bracket. The igniter is fragile, so handle it by the bracket and avoid bumping or squeezing the element. Install the new kit in the same position, reconnect the wires, then restore the gas and power and test the dryer for heat. If you smell gas at any point, stop, ventilate, and call your gas utility.
Frequently Asked Questions
My gas dryer spins but doesn't heat. Is this the part I need?
A failed igniter is a common cause. If you run the dryer and never see the igniter glow, or it glows but the burner doesn't light, test the igniter for continuity. A bad coil on the gas valve or a thermal fuse can cause the same symptom, so check those too.
Will this fit an electric dryer?
No. This igniter is for gas dryers only. Electric dryers use a heating element instead.
Why did my new igniter break?
Silicon carbide igniters are fragile. Handle the new one by the bracket, and don't press or bump the element during installation. A weak or restricted gas supply or a faulty gas valve can also make igniters fail early.
Will this fit my dryer?
It is listed for many Whirlpool-built gas dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

The flame switch is a safety component mounted on the burner assembly that confirms a flame is actually present after the gas valve opens and the igniter lights the burner. If the switch does not detect a flame within the expected window, it signals the control board to shut off the gas valve, preventing unburned gas from continuing to flow into the dryer cabinet.
When the flame switch fails, the dryer may not heat at all, may shut off the burner shortly after ignition (short-cycling the flame), may trip a no-heat fault code on models with digital displays, or — in rarer failure modes — may fail to shut off gas flow appropriately, which is a safety-relevant failure. It directly replaces 17438200000160 (Midea OEM). Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Gas Appliance Safety Warning This part is installed in a gas dryer. Always unplug the dryer and shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve before beginning any repair. If you smell gas at any point during or after installation, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility provider. Do not restore power or gas until the repair is fully complete and all connections are confirmed secure. If you are not comfortable working on gas appliances or safety-relevant flame-detection components, have this part installed by a qualified technician.
⚠️ Wear Work Gloves — Access Requires Cabinet Disassembly Disconnect power and shut off gas before beginning. Wear work gloves throughout — there are sharp metal edges inside the dryer cabinet. Remove the lint filter and the screws securing the lint filter housing. Release the top panel locking clips with a putty knife and lift the top panel. Disconnect the door switch harness and remove the front panel to access the drum and burner assembly. Locate the flame switch mounted on the burner assembly — it is positioned to detect the flame produced once the igniter lights the gas. Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Disconnect the wires from the old flame switch, remove the mounting screw, and pull the switch free. Install the new 17438200000160 flame switch in the same position, secure the mounting screw, and reconnect the wires. Reassemble the front panel, drum, and top panel in reverse order. Restore gas and power, and run a test heat cycle to confirm the burner ignites and stays lit normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the flame switch do, and how is it different from an igniter?
The igniter is the component that heats up and ignites the gas at the burner. The flame switch is a separate safety component that confirms a flame is actually present after the igniter has done its job and the gas valve has opened. If the flame switch does not detect the expected flame condition, it signals the control system to close the gas valve, stopping gas flow. This two-part system — ignition plus flame confirmation — is a standard safety design in gas dryers and gas appliances generally, ensuring gas does not continue flowing if combustion isn't actually occurring.
My burner lights and then shuts off after a few seconds — is this the flame switch?
Yes, this is a common symptom of a failing flame switch. If the switch is not reliably maintaining its "flame detected" signal to the control board even though the burner is genuinely lit, the system may interpret this as a flame failure and shut the gas valve as a safety precaution — causing the burner to repeatedly light and then extinguish. This short-cycling pattern during what should be a continuous heat cycle is a strong indicator that the flame switch needs replacement.
Why is this called a "flame switch" rather than a "flame sensor"?
Different manufacturers use different terminology for similar flame-detection safety components. On Whirlpool-family gas dryers, this type of part is typically called a "flame sensor" — a bimetal-style sensor near the igniter that closes a circuit when it senses sufficient heat. Midea's parts catalog labels this specific component the "flame switch," and it serves an analogous safety role within the Midea gas burner system: confirming the presence of a flame after ignition. The terminology differs by manufacturer, but the safety function is similar in concept.
Why does this repair require opening the whole dryer cabinet?
On Midea gas dryers, the flame switch is mounted directly on the burner assembly inside the dryer cabinet, which is only accessible after removing the lint filter housing, releasing the top panel, and removing the front panel. This is a more involved repair than swapping an externally accessible part, but it follows the same general gas dryer disassembly procedure used for replacing igniters, thermal fuses, and other burner-area components. Since the cabinet must be opened, it can be a good opportunity to inspect other burner components (igniter, gas valve coils) for wear at the same time.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is manufactured to match the dimensions, mounting configuration, and function of the original 17438200000160 Midea flame switch.
