OEM Replacement Part • GE Gas Oven Igniter (Flat-Style) Part Number: WB13K21
Product Overview
Restore proper heating performance to your gas oven with the WB13K21 flat-style oven igniter, a genuine OEM replacement designed for GE-family ranges and wall ovens. This hot surface igniter is responsible for igniting the gas at the oven burner during bake and broil cycles.
A weak or failing igniter may glow but still fail to open the gas valve, resulting in no heat, slow preheating, or inconsistent oven temperatures. Replacing the igniter often resolves these issues quickly and cost-effectively.
