ACS3350AS Amana Range - Instructions

Took off the grills and drip pans. Removed the 8 screws, 2 from each burner, which hold on the top. Gently lift burners and pull off electrical contact from each. Lift off and set top aside. Removed knobs on front of oven and screws below each knob. Removed the screws holding the front plate and carefully pry the manifold assembly from the front plate so that the valve shaft is just inside the front plate. Disconnect the old switch and slide off the shaft, then replace with the new switch and reassemble all.

Inside the oven: Pull the bottom floor pan off, just lift up in front and pull back.--Then take the one hex nut off the burner diffuser and lift off.--Remove under storage drawer. On Bottom of oven (Underside): Take off plate in back (2 ea screws) so you can unplug wire to igniter.------Go back inside oven and remove the 3 ea. screws that hold the igniter and holder/guard in place.-----Pull the igniter out.------Replace the new igniter in the holder/guard being careful not to crack the igniter.------Reverse procedure to re-install new unit.

I removed the bottom cover and the heat shield, then removed the screws that hold the igniter mounting bracket. After removing the drawer and the wiring cover I disconnected the igniter wires. I then removed the igniter and mounting bracket, pulling the wires through the hole at the rear of the lower burner box. I installed the new igniter by reversing the process.

We unplugged the stove and turned off the gas. We slid the oven door off just to make it easier. Unscrewed 3 screws holding the igniter in place. Pulled the igniter out from the back of the stove. Disconnected the two wires. Slid the new igniter in the holder. Rewired it and slid it back into place. Put the screws back in and it was done. Plugged it back in, turned the gas on, tried it out and presto! It was perfect! Lit immediately and strong and now i have a brand new 20 year old stove. lol Happy girl! And this was done by 2 50 year old women!

Since the broiler was operational, this indicated the gas valve was probably functional since it provides gas to both the broiler and oven. I ordered the igniter based on other recommendations because the gas valve will not open until the igniter is drawing adequate current. This fixed my problem.

The burner has two screws holding it in place. I remover those and lifted the burner up. I then disconnected the wire attached to the igniter that was on the old burner and attached it to the igniter that was pre-installed on the new burner. I then placed the burner back into position and reinstalled the two screws. The reason that I bought the burner assembly is that I was unable to unscrew the screw underneath that held the igniter in place on the old burner.

Removed old igniter and replaced with new one.Tested oven and it went on. You need a phillips screwdriver to remove two screws and a small socket for the third screw to remove the igniter cage. Then pull out the wires from under the oven and disconnect. Reverse procedure to install new igniter. Reuse original connectors. Be very careful with the igniter because the tip is very fragile and can break easily.
