is there some diagnosis I can do on the ignitor module, or somewhere else?

yes, they all stop clicking when I shut the oven thermostat off. whenever it is off "OFF," the main oven burner and the stove burner ignitors are running

do all the burners stop clicking when you turn off the oven burner ?

Hello all:

new to this forum, but I can't wait to learn more about fixing appliances. I prefer fixing rather than replacing if mechanicals are in good shape. At one tenant's apt, she was having issues with a kenmore stove. The oven initially wouldn't light. I cleaned the capillary tube for the safety valve and now it lights, but the darn ignitor keeps sparking (it is spark ignition on a pilot)! The oven AND the stove tops ignitors go off at the same time, even after the main burner on the oven lights. The stove ignitor works flawlessly, but I don't understand what is happening here. The tenant also mentioned the oven doesn't keep a set temperature, but I want to do one thing at a time. I cleaned the capillary tube for the thermostat so that may fix it. I checked for wiring snafus but couldn't find any crossed wiring or otherwise. Does anyone have ideas?
