Dear expert
My cook top stove's spark electros will not stop sparking even though the gas flames are lid. I think there is a thermal couple that is bad. My guess is that the spark electrode is also the thermal couple that when it is heated to a threshold temperature will turn off the spark generator on the stove. Will replaceing the bad spark electode solve the problem.

Before replacing any parts visually inspect all burners and igniters.
The must be clean and dry. All burner caps must be in the right position and all burner igniters should not be bend. The ceramic insulation around the igniter should not be cracked or broken.
Post your findings.
Gene.

The cermaic casing of one of the igniter is cracked could this cause the problem?
