My Frigidaire Model PLCF489CCF igniters continuously spark.I disconnected the black lead from the switches to the igniter module and testedfor voltage. All switches were in theoff position but I got 120 volts. I assumed the switches were bad and removedthem. Then, just to verify my diagnosis, I check the switches for resistance.The switches would show infinite when in the off position and 0 ohms when inthe on position. Now I suspect the igniter module, but I am not sure how to test it with a multimeter. Can you help me? Thanks in advance.

All ignition switches passed the test fine. To avoid the possibility of any of them were temporary shorted reinstall all ignition switches and give it a try. If the same problem returned, just replace the spark module. It should fix it. There are no any instrumental test for the spark module but there is nothing left but this part. - The spark module Part number: AP2128204

Thanks Gene. The switches must have been shorted. I put everything together and all works well. Finicky stove! I'm ready for an upgrade!
