Weber Igniter Kit, for Genesis Silver/Gold/Plat and Spirit 200/300 Series

This product worked exceptionally well. The packaging was immaculate. It was shipped quickly and was a great price for a Weber part. It was a very easy install. I was upset this season when my grill didn’t start. My grill now works as well as it did when I first bought it. If you are having trouble with your grill starting, this is an easy and inexpensive fix. My grill is going on its second decade. I included a picture of what my igniter looked like just in case anyone (like me) cant figure out why your Weber Genesis won’t start.

Worked good, easy to install, on my grill,(Weber Sprit)

My Genesis Silver is over 20 years old and it was taking a lot to get it started so I purchased this igniter kit. My original was rusted and falling apart. The instructions were easy to follow and I had it changed out in 20 minutes. First try took 2 pushed of the button and it lit the flame. I always use OEM parts and this is why. Perfect fit and operation.

WORKS

The key part in the description is that it fits "*most Spirit 200/300." Not all, as I can confirm. The ignitor uses a completely different type of connection to the gas bar. This device is totally piezo electric, so if you have the electronic ignitor (just press the button and you hear repeated clicking) look for a different model. I was up for minor modifications to switch over from the electric start but it was too much effort, so I ended up just using the ignitor piece with the existing hardware. Simpler to just get the right thing to begin with!It is a Weber product and well constructed. Just be sure to check the picture against what you have in your grill. If you have the auto ignitor, this will not work.

Do you really need to replace? If no spark, there is a white wire with push on connections. The ends may not be making contact any more. Remove the ends from the metal tabs and using tuner cleaner spray or sandpaper, clean the metal ends. It may fix the problem.For the older style Weber Spirit gas grill E-310 model number 3721001- the one with the three gray knobs on the side and the gray push button for the igniter. This is the right button. Replacing the push button and the spark box takes ten minutes max. Getting that grey knob off? Good luck with that. Here is what I had to do to get the push button off. It has 4 tabs under the sheet metal that are impossible to push in enough to make the button and its case pop out of the hole (if you can, tell us how you did it in the comments!). Just pry the darn thing off starting at the back two sides. A small flat bladed screwdriver will get you started and a larger couple of them will finish prying it off. Don't worry about the tabs on the sides. Once the first two back tabs are up then keep prying from the back as the knob pivot prevents the front from lifting up. Once off, replacing the igniter is easy. Use a pair of pliers to make sure that the black wire is fully pushed up onto the button part and verify that you put the spark device facing the right way and bent the tab holding it in place tight.Finally, take the grey button and its case, clean it up and CUT OFF THE TABS! I used a Dremel tiny round saw blade but drilling them off would work as well. Then just put the button assembly back on the grill. Turns out that those tabs are useless and the button works fine without them! Makes it easier for the next time as well.

Easy to install. This is my third replacement ignitor. We live in the mid-west and use our grill year-round at least twice a week. Winter weather can be tough and this grill has survived two cross-country moves and just keeps on going. We've replaced the sizzle bars as well. Great grill ...great replacement parts available when needed.

It was a perfect replacement for my worn out ingiter
