thanks Gene for the fast response. I need some easy steps for reeplace the part. I think I will not be able to replace only the spark electrodo. It can break. Also I need to replace the valve of the Right front knob I think the part # AP3086363. Has a red paint. Am I right? Thanks.

You CAN NOT replace just the spark electrode because it comes as a part of the burner assembly. You have to replace all parts included in the kit. In order to do it remove the burner cap and remove the two screws secured the burner head. Remove the burner head and the burner bezel.
You have to do it with all four burners in order to remove the glass panel and access the bottom part of the burner.
Why do you need to replace the gas burner valve?
Gene.

The knob of the Right Front burner does'nt stop. When I disassembled the cook top, I found it broken. Also the spark electrodo of the Right Front small burner, sparks burt I need a flame if I want to lite it. I don't know if because of the valve or I need to change also the full piece of the Right burner. I just order the two pieces ( the left front burner and the valve) and I going first to change the valve in the right burner. If the spark electrodo still is not working I need to change it. But I don't understood how to remove from the cook top the piece where the spark electrodo is inserted, thanks.

Gene, thanks:
I put a mirror under the piece and I saw one screw, but the worst is that the burner rail is attached to the pan with 2 screws in each corner. I figure that I need to remove the pan ( the full cook top) but that one is glue to the granite. There is no way to do it by the bottom ( inside the cabinets.) If I have other option tell me.

Unfortunately there are no other options. You have to remove the cooktop from the countertop.
Gene.
