Viking Range Corporation Range Spark ignition switch / valve switch PA020015

Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Burner fails to spark or light when the knob is turned to the ignition position.
• Spark system may continue clicking or sparking after the control is returned to OFF if the switch contacts remain closed.
• Intermittent burner ignition caused by worn, contaminated, or moisture-affected switch contacts.

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off the gas supply before accessing or testing the switch.
• Visually inspect the switch area and wiring for moisture, contamination, loose connections, or visible damage; allow any moisture to dry before further testing.
• With power disconnected, a qualified technician may check the switch for continuity in the OFF position and compare its behavior across control positions. A switch showing continuity when it should be open is suspect.
• Confirm that the symptom follows the burner-control switch circuit rather than assuming the spark module or electrode is defective.
