MGC5430ADQ Maytag Cooktop - Instructions

cut off terminals and replaced with the right size one's stove lights every time now wlrowe

The trickiest part was locating the elusive spark module. I am not certain I took the best route, but not considering all the wrong routes in trial and error, it was the most expedient. Certainly there must have been a single something to remove to get to this frequently faulted part..

Anyhow, thanks to the great part, the stove works really well again.

unscrewed old burner about a 1/4 turn counterclockwise. pulled old burner out. removed the 2 wires connected to the burner. attached said wires to new burner making sure to connect correct color wire to same post as old burner. put new burner back in stove and turned about a 1/4 turn clockwise.

I removed the old burner with pliers took off the electrodes. Replace the new burner attach the electrodes placed it back in the burner slot and now it works.

Stove was bought at Lowe's. I called Lowe's, who promptly said to call a local appliance repair firm, which they named. I did so & was told initial call for diagnosis was $99. I said go ahead. Tech. showed up, removed burner from stove top, and agreed with me that it did not work. He said he'd order part call me to schedule repair. In 2 days, he called me to report that they would order the [art, and that another caLL and installing the burner would cost an additional $113.95. I then went on-line & located part. I ordered it from Part Select & it arrived in 2 days, with part and shipping costing $44.00 At first it did not seem compatible with my stove but a technician/friend came by & we found it would work. Installing it was very simple;' two wires had to be connected to terminals on the bottom of the burner unit, it easily locked back in place, I turned the burner on & there was flame,

I have a Magic Chef gas stove, The top burner came off with ease, just a quarter turn then pull up to expose igniter. Only two wires to remove and two phillips head screws to remove to release igniter. I was done in 5 minutes.

We were at a loss for a long time without my boost burner and then while checking all the rest of the burners my husband discovered that all of them had a massive amount of rust on the underneathe side of the burners and that worried me. Well as usual my husband took care of my worries when he discovered Parts Select. We both were pleasantly surprised when we found out that you had what we needed. And the installation was less than 5 minutes, WOW, THAT WAS GREAT! Thanx a million!

The spark module pulses a stepped up voltage to all four burner sparks at the same time regardless of which burner you want to ignite. I read that this part lasts about 10 years. I don't cook much and it lasted 13 years. On my Magic Chef the part is behind the right side wall panel. Lift the range top,remove all the screws that hold the right side panel in place. This replacement can done without opening any gas fittings.

So simple would be embarrassed to give any instructions; it is so self evident.

We replaced 3 of 4 igniters on the stove top according to the previously submitted recommendations. Easy to do butt after putting one of the modules back together, we found one igniter still didn't function. We discovered the solution was to run the connecting wire under the gas tubing. Apparently it was compressed when it was over the top of the tube and not under it.

1/4 turn counter clockwise to remove the old burner, removed wires. Placed wires on new burner tightened them with pliers,dropped it in, 1/4 turn clockwise--done!

New burner and igniter.....actually it was very easy to to fix

Twisted and lifted off the burner, loosened in a previous repair; removed electrical wires from igniter; undid two screws holding igniter in place; rotated igniter 90 degrees and lifted it out; reversed process with new igniter.3

turned the old burner to the left and lifted it out. unpluged the wires with a screwdriver pluged the wires into the new burner and putit back on the stove and turned it to the right

in and out in 15 min ,is easy when part fit.
