GE Range Error Code LED on continuously

A continuously lit LED on a GE range indicates a control fault within the DSI (Direct Spark Ignition) module, which manages the burner ignition sequence and gas valve control. This is a module-level fault signal, meaning the DSI module's own internal circuitry is not functioning correctly. The range should not be used for cooking until the fault is resolved, as the ignition system cannot reliably manage gas flow in this state.

It is not recommended to use the range while this fault is active. The DSI module controls the ignition sequence and gas valve operation, and a control fault in this module means those functions are not being managed reliably. Continuing to use the range risks improper gas valve behavior during burner startup, which is a safety concern.

A technician with basic appliance repair experience can replace a DSI module, as it typically involves disconnecting the range from power, accessing the control area, unplugging the wire harness connectors, and swapping the module. However, because this repair involves components directly tied to gas valve control, those less comfortable working around gas appliance electronics should have a qualified technician perform the replacement. Always disconnect power completely before beginning any disassembly.

A power cycle is the recommended first step: disconnect the range from power for at least 30 seconds, then restore power and check whether the LED turns off. If the LED goes out and the range operates normally, the fault was caused by a temporary electrical glitch. If the LED comes back on continuously after the reset, the DSI module has a persistent internal failure and will need to be replaced.

If the DSI module needs replacement, parts costs typically range from around $50 to $150 depending on the specific model. Adding professional labor for diagnosis and installation generally brings the total repair cost to somewhere in the range of $150 to $300. Getting the module number from your range's model documentation before purchasing helps ensure you order the correct part.
