Gas Oven Sparker Keeps Ticking (Sparking)

On some ovens Whirlpool uses a spark electrode very similar to those used on cooktops. This system may fail and result in low temperature complaints. There are several solutions to this problem. First is a new electrode; make sure that the burner is firmly grounded.

2. Whirlpool also has redesigned the burner with more holes to better light the flame.
