533898 Genuine Ignition Box ITW B2000 5 Way for Fisher & Paykel Gas Cooktops, F&P 5 Outlet Spark Generator Module

533898 is a genuine Fisher & Paykel ignition box, an ITW B2000 spark generator with five outlets for F&P gas cooktops. Each outlet feeds a lead to one burner's electrode, so a five way box suits a cooktop with five ignition points. The cooktop models aren't recorded in our system. Match the part number or the B2000 label and outlet count on your old box, or send us your model and serial number.

Gas cooktop not sparking or clicking constantly

When you push and turn a burner knob, a microswitch tells the ignition box to fire, and it sends high voltage pulses down the leads to the electrodes, producing the click and spark that lights the gas. A failing box may stop sparking on all burners, spark weakly, click slowly, or keep clicking after the knob is released. Spills that get into the knob switches or the box itself are a common cause, so dry everything out and check switches, leads and electrodes before replacing the module.

Safe fitting of the ignition box

This part connects to mains power inside a gas appliance, so have it fitted by a licensed gas fitter or licensed electrician. Isolate power at the circuit breaker or switch off at the wall, and turn off the gas. Label each lead before disconnecting it and keep the new box away from heat and moisture. Test every burner for a strong spark before the cooktop goes back into use.

Questions about this part

Can I use a 4 way box on a 5 burner cooktop?

No. A 4 way box only has outlets for four electrodes, so one burner would be left without ignition. Use the 5 way 533898 where your cooktop's parts list shows it, or ask us to check with your model and serial number.
