Operation
The Bosch 00619017 Re-Ignition Spark Module operates automatically. Its primary function is to provide a spark for ignition and to re-ignite the burner if the flame goes out during operation.
Normal Operation:
- When a burner knob is turned to the "Lite" or "Ignite" position, the spark module sends an electrical pulse to the spark electrode, creating a visible spark at the burner.
- Once the gas ignites, the module senses the flame and stops sparking.
- If the flame is extinguished while the burner is still on (e.g., due to a draft or boil-over), the module will automatically detect the absence of flame and attempt to re-ignite it by sparking again.
No user interaction is required for the module's re-ignition function.
Maintenance
The Bosch 00619017 Re-Ignition Spark Module itself requires no routine maintenance. However, proper maintenance of your range can help ensure its longevity and proper function.
General Range Maintenance Tips:
- Keep burner ports clean to ensure proper gas flow and ignition.
- Ensure spark electrodes are clean and free from grease or food debris. A dirty electrode can prevent proper sparking.
- Regularly check gas connections for leaks (use a soapy water solution, never an open flame).
- Ensure proper ventilation in your kitchen.
If you suspect an issue with the spark module, refer to the troubleshooting section or contact a qualified technician.
