Default Chambers 4 burner gas cooktop- ignitor module
Model Number: GSU-33 E1   Brand: -brand-   Age: More than 10 years   

I have a bad ignitor module causing my stove top burners (4) to not light unless lit by a match, etc.
I have a blue spark module now with an Eaton name (now Robertshaw) with a 76470-01 number on one side with a 90 32 A below it. The Chambers 4 burner gas cooktop, model GSU-33 E1 (ser C-231995) is not listed anywhere. I know it was a division of Rangaire Corp, Oxford MISSISSIPPI.
I assume the Eaton Controls # 76470-01 may be a replacement unit since the rangetop is 1982 vintage.
Where can I get a replacement ignitor or if you can give me an OEM # ?

Speed of answer is important dsd@ieee.org

The numbers you posted did not come up but I steel believe we can find the right part for you.

The best thing is if you can post a pictures of the original part.

If you can not, then we need the number of terminals with marks on each one.

Default Found generic replacement - another Eaton w Maytag #

Thanks for the reply but I found another look-alike unit also made by Eaton but with a Maytag part # on it obviously to double the price!
What a racket; Eaton appears to make vast majority and everyone else puts their own number on it. Its too bad someone didn't have set of Eaton #s and a place to purchase so one could purchase the original eaton parts and not the inflated Vendor parts.

cheers,

I took a digital photo of the part and compared it to the generic parts at a local appliance parts place and online. I think there are a lot of generic parts that are purchased by folks like Maytag and they put the Maytag name on it and charge 2 or 3 X the amount. REad the **** or web offerings carefully and look at the picture; I'm sure you find one the LOOKS and ACTS like the Chambers but with a different name. Some web/**** folks do a good job describing the generic name of these parts. Then its just a matter of size of componenet, size of spade lug connectors, and pin numbers, etc.

Baracoa,

If you can post a picture of the part then we can help you to match it up and find a good price.

Gene.

Thanks to all for the prompt replies. I did as advised, found a suitable part and now my cooktop automatically lights again! Heaven!
