usually the spark module is not put back together properly. 1 make sure the spark unit is clean 2 make sure the gas jet is pointing towards the sparker 3 make sure there is no aluminum foil or other metal near the sparker pulling the spark away from the gas

On any range I've seen with electronic ignitors, the valves have a position that closes a contact to turn on the ignitor and manually moving the dial to the 'Hi' setting opens the contact again and the ignitor ceases to spark.
You don't mean the ignitors run even when the burners are off, do you?
I'm surprised to read that this has been happening for 'years,' the transformer for the ignitors must be really tough to withstand that and it doesn't sound like an electrode or transformer problem but rather a contact not opening as it should or you not advancing the control past the ignite point.

Hi mikegou100,

I believe your ignition switches have come in to contact with either water or moisture.

Please read my below Tip on how to fix the problem:

If it does not solve your problem, I'd suggest replacing the ignition switches.

Usually, the igniter is contained in the same switch ( control knob) as the gas flow. When you turn it on, you should hear a clicking noise. I've never seen one of these with a separate ignition system. Sorry if that's not the problem tokfm
