All 5 stove won't ignite, no clicking sound heard. Gas can be heard, electrical outlet is working and is plugged. Spark module replaced, still not working and instead lock/unlock switch sparked when turned. What other parts do I need to repair this stove. Thanks

Which part did you call "lock/unlock switch"?

If the spark module is new then most likely the problem is a bad switch harness.

- The part number for the switch harness is AP3860449

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for GE JGP970SEK1SS | AppliancePartsPros.com

The lock/unlock key or sel knob, part id #40, sparked when turned.
Do you think there might be other problems?
I have ordered the harness switch, it should arrive next week.
I will replace it when it arrived. I have also ordered the harness wire burner since that one is out of stock and might take 1-6 weeks to arrive, just in case the stove still doesnt ignite after replacing the harness switch. Thank you for responding, greatly appreciated.

You will see it when you'll take it apart. Keep us posted.

:) I have installed the harness switch and it's working - sparking or igniting :( but now the red light is on and it is buzzing loud continuously and if you lock it, it is still igniting. Lock or unlock, unit is still turning on when turned, red light is on and buzzing continues. :confused: What is wrong now? I need help.

I'm not able to help you with this issue without the wiring diagram for this stove which I can not find online. If you do have one and can post it then it might help.

Thank you for letting me know. I tried to search it online, one says to check each unit one at a time if they are working. Red light may indicate that a unit is not working. I will try this and will let you know. I'm getting frustrated to a point that I might go ahead and buy a new less expensive and less complicated unit. But Im still going to give it a shot again. Wish me luck. Have a good long weekend.
