I replaced the burner and turned on the power. I turned the oven knob on and "Viola", the igniter came on and burner came to life. I replaced every thing in reverse order and called it "done". It was so easy with the postings on this subject.

frist tested ignitor with meter removed ignitor order

Replaced all the items I'd re ... Read more moved and the oven functions just fine.
