Obsolete part help

[DIY Mom]

I  am looking for  part # W10132167. It is for a kitchenaid cook top spark ignitor. I have called, email and checked in with many places with no avail. Any suggestions? Whirlpool has advised it is no longer available and it appears it has been out of stock for quite some time. Whirlpool also has no suggestions for alternate parts. No one in the country seems to have this part.  I have called numerous old appliance places as well and I am out of options. Does anyone know a service that can make one? Any other suggestions/ options?

For additional information it is for the model KFGS306VSS02

What specifically is wrong with what you have now?  Is the ceramic cracked?  Lead damaged?

Might be able to fix what you have depending on what's left.

I think the ceramic is cracked but all I can say for sure is it doesn't spark.

Tried a newer model KFGS306VSS04,  the ignitors for this model are still available. Not sure what the difference maybe. Try swapping the wires around to confirm a cracked ignitor.

Can you hear it sparking?  Are all the burners affected or only one? Maybe you just have a contamination path that needs to be cleaned?

Thank you and great idea. The newer model has the same igniter as my model and the igniter has the same part #.  Unfortunately,  a dead end as the part is obsolete and no suggested replacement.

Hello Grasshoppah,  good idea but we definitely need a replacement igniter. That is the only burner with the issue and it does not spark.

It doesn't look like anything special. Stop by a parts place that has a reasonable inventory and see if they can match it up with something similar.

You might need to modify the mounting bracket, but there should be something that works.
