Orifice Holder for Left Rear Range/Stove/Oven
Designed for compatibility with Whirlpool and its related brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral, this orifice holder is intended for the left rear burner. Whirlpool also produces similar components that fit Sears-Kenmore and Ikea ranges. Identified as part number W11162117, this device functions both as a surface burner igniter and an orifice holder for various stove models.
Part W11162117 primarily facilitates the delivery of gas to the burner head, incorporating an igniter electrode to generate the necessary spark for gas ignition.
Prior to installation, it is important to disconnect the range from power and ensure the gas supply is turned off. For safety, wearing protective work gloves is recommended.
