Oven seals got dried and cracked
The top seal was too long (my fault, ordered wrong length seal) so I had to cut it and high-temp epoxy the metal hook into the end. Overall pretty easy fix.

electric ignite gas stove kept clicking the ignitor unless unplugged from electrical outlet
I removed the 2 screws that held the housing on at the back of the stove. Then I removed the 2 screws that held the module to the back of the stove. Since I am not an experienced electrical person (I am a female nurse in the operating room), I unplugged 1 wire at a time from the old module and plugged it into the new module. I repeated this step with each wire to make sure I didn't put the wrong wire on a wrong spot until I had all the wires to the new module. Then reattached the screws, plugged in the oven and presto, it works just fine! Was amazed at how easy it was. A 50 dollar part instead of a new 1500 dollar stove. How easy is that?

Ignitor did not spark when turning the know
Had to remove the 4 range knobs, and the oven knob and then the facie. Two screws under the end caps and two on each side from the back on each end. Design defect: one of these screws which attaches through the frame to the facie also attaches the support which holds up the range top. Take that one off last. Remove the two wires that attach to the oven light switch. After detaching the power supply to the defective ignition unit, it just pulls right off. Push the new switch on over the knob shaft and reassemble.

We had totally obliterated the numbers on my old stove knobs
The knobs were a perfect replacement and I just slid them onto the posts on which the old ones were on. Although my range is a Glenwood I think that the parts are now made my Whirlpool (not exactly sure) but they are a perfect match. My order came so quickly and I am thrilled with the transaction. I didn't think I would ever find the replacement knobs and thought I might have to get a new range as you could not read the oven temperatures at all on the old knobs.

Right front gas burner ignitor wouldn't spark
I used the experience of another user posted on your web site. I removed all the gas control knobs and then I followed his instructions about removing the four phillps head screws that held the front plate in place. Once I had it loose and flipped the plate out, it was simple to disconnect the old ignitor switch and install the new one. Simply reversing the process put the range back in proper order. Took a little over 15 minutes to accomplish.

Original knobs with number readings worn off
Took the old knobs off and put the new ones on...voila!!
They fit perfect and even had the same part number stamped inside. Perfect fit and just like new!
Wasn't much of a repair per se but wanted to give a good review. The old knobs were over 30 years old so I was worried I wouldn't be able to find an exact replacement but PartSelect had the exact match.

Needed 2 burner knobs for my 20+ year old range
I have a gas oven range and 2 of the knobs were stripped, making it difficult to control the heat. My appliance is at least 20 years old. I thought I'd have to replace the whole thing. I found your website, did a search, and found exactly what I needed. The knobs fit perfectly. Although not an exact match to the originals, they work, and that's all I care about. Easy and inexpensive fix.
