Broken Thermostat Knob
After ordering 3 or 4 different knobs for replacement, I found the one I needed. I did not have the oven model number at first...now everything is working fine. No tools, just push the knob into place. Thanks!

Oven would not start, ignitor was not doing anything
My wife said the oven would not heat up, I took a look at it and determined it was not igniting. I figured there was an electric spark like my BBQ. When I took the pan out of the bottom of the oven I saw that it did not look like anything I had seen before. I looked it up online and found out it had a glow ignitor that just heats up and then ignites the gas. Mine wasn't doing anything so I removed it, got a part number off of it an plugged that into this site. It came up with the part, i ordered it, put it in and started it up. probably took about 45 minutes total including taking it out and then replacing it. Really easy and the oven is now working fine. Figured it would have been a couple hundred dollars to have someone come to the house and fix it, I did it myself for less than 50. Thanks Partselect.

broke the igniter in the oven before I even got the oven installed
ordered the new igniter kit, it was delivered the NEXT day, followed the instructions, it was a lot easier then my old Tappan oven, took about 15 minutes. Not bad at all, and I am a 58 year old woman.

The oven bottom was warped and could not be positioned properly in the oven.
Removing the old oven bottom was easy...as it was already outside of its slots. Installing the new one was pretty easy. I placed the oven bottom in the front slots first...then the rear slots...no tools necessary.

The oven control know wore out.
I purchased a knob that I was hoping might fit properly.
Unfortunately I did not find anything that matched the knob we had originally. We use the knob that I purchased to turn the oven on and off, but the shaft channel is much longer than the shaft on the stove, so the knob sits high above the other knobs. I wish that I could find a knob to accommodate the
shaft on the stove. I have considered purchasing an addition kinob and trying to saw off part of the shaft if the plastic can be shortened without shattering.

Remove oven door, remove burner bar, replace ignitor, splice wires together because the old electrical connectors had melted together. Shipping was fast and extra wire, insulation and ceramic wire nuts were included.
