You will have to replace the igniter module as it is shorted.

Here is a link to your cook top model kgct365tbl.

sounds like the switches is shorted out . that type of spark module needs to scents a flame before it stops sparking and when the burner is off and the switch shorted out with no flame you have constant spark
