30-2632-00 Tappan Range - Instructions

I removed the broiler burner assembly held in by 5 screws across the inside top of the oven, as I removed the assembly the igniter slid out from the back of the oven and was attached to the assembly with a cannon plug, I disconnected the cannon plug and removed the whole assembly out of the oven and replaced the igniter which was attached by two screws and reassembled in the oven. Where I live in remote Alaska calling a repair technician is not an option, either figure it out or have a new appliance barged in.

Warning- we found a lot of bare wires in this stove, check your wires before replacing the bad switches. I lifted the top, disconnected the power, pulled off the knobs, unscrewed the switch for the back light, removed seven screws to finally get the front panel off. Once you have the front panel off, changing the swich takes less than a minute. The switches just slide off the gas valve stems. Instructions show how to line up the new D-shaped switch mechanism to match the D-shaped shaft. Gently pull the two wires off the old switch and slide onto the new switch. Then put the panel back.

Took out the old & easily replace it with the new set. No tools required.

1) Turn off the gas and disconnect the power

2) Remove oven door. There requires that you remove the two square drive (SD) bolts on the inside, partially close the door and lift it off the hinges.

3) Remove the grills.

4) At the back remove the rear shield (aluminum panel held by 2 SD sheet metal screws.

5) this exposes the broiler igniter and its two wires. If its been replaced in past, there should be two porcelain screw-on wire connectors. Undo the connectors by turning them counter-clockwise. With a volt-ohmmeter, measure the resistance across the igniter. If its open circuited, its broken. If not, then its in the circuit board, and this help stop here. If this is the original igniter, it ends in a plastic connector. Disconnect by pulling it apart from its mating plug and again, check the continuity of the igniter. If its defective, reconnect the connector and cut each wire on the igniter side. Strip back about 1/2 inch of insulation on each lead.

6) inside the oven, using the SD driver, remove the 4 screw securing the broiler burner from the roof of the oven. The burner can now be removed, pulling the burner away from the gas jet on the right.

7) The igniter is now exposed and can be remove by removing the two SD drive screws.

8) Replace with the new igniter, being careful not to touch the black element, and feeding the wires though the rear oven wall.

9)Reverse the above dissembly procedure.

10) Broil the sausages.

Just to point out the pans were delivered within a few days which was very quick. I just dropped them in. They fit perfect. Thank You for no stress.

I threw the old ones out and replaced them with the new ones. It was a no-brainer :) The parts arrived super fast. Great, no hassle service.

No installation steps required. I did have very fast delivery of parts ordered.

This hard to find GE part number was easy to find at PartSelect.com. The GE dealer said the part was permanently out of stock. Lift lid and remove a few screws and pull off two wires and replace switch plate and reconnect everything. Good to go.

take broiler oven door off. replaced the wire clip on one side of the two wire harness. on the other side, I clipped the other wire, used the wire sripper too strip each side of the wires and used the ceramic wire nut that came with the kit. I did not have to remove any part of the stove for this job. twisted the wire nut on, and my job was done ! replaced the broiler door and you finally are able to cook your famous meat loaf ! Mike

The repair was very simple and easy. All I hqad to do was remove the old knobs and attach the new ones. No tool was required.

remove screw, remove burner, install new burner and screw

No Problem, couldn't find them at any local repair facility so I looked on line and found them here, ordered 4 drip pans and the exact replacements came within a few days.

My existing igniter glowed but the oven still did not light. I determined it was too weak to activate the gas valve so I replaced it. Simple fix, four screws, wire nutted the two leads. Fired right up, took about 30 minutes to replace.

Removed 4 burner knobs. Unscrewed 6 phillips head screws on manifold.Pulled back manifold enough to remove switch. Removed the Two wires from switch and hooked them up to the new switch. Slid new switch on to shaft and in reverse order, reasembled manifold, screws and knobs.

Opened the box, took out the drip pans and the put them on the stove. Wow -- even a techno-challenged person like myself could do this! I ordered these on a Tues. at 2:00 p.m. and received them on Wednesday -- that is a first so thanks for the fast service and they look great! Was non-existent to find them at local appliance stores in the area so thank you for having them.
