Content: Install new spark igniter electrode
Using the previous installation as a reference point, push the new igniter electrode into the burner orifice holder assembly where the old one was located. Fasten it with the metal clip, as the previous igniter was fastened. Finally, reattach the wire you removed from the old electrode by pushing it onto the connection spade at the bottom of the new electrode. Step 6: Reattach the cooktop
Reattach the cooktop next. Place the cooktop on top of the range and ease it down while listening for the “snap” of the mounting clips you previously undid. Make sure the cooktop snaps in correctly on the front lip of the appliance. Reinsert the screws that secure the cooktop to the gas burner tube orifice holders. It is okay to make slight adjustments to the burner tube orifice holders if they don’t line up with the holes where you’ll insert the screws. Don’t move them too much, and be sure to tighten all the screws firmly.
