Ignitor would not ignite the oven

  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Pliers
Removed the oven doors for access; removed the burner onto which the ignitor is attached, disconnected the electrical wires (power off). Reversed the procedure to put it back together. We are now cooking with gas again. Thanks. Fletcher

stove sometimes would not light or took really long and did not maintain heat
  • Patricia from Milwaukee, WI
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Screw drivers
We unplugged the stove and turned off the gas. We slid the oven door off just to make it easier. Unscrewed 3 screws holding the igniter in place. Pulled the igniter out from the back of the stove. Disconnected the two wires. Slid the new igniter in the holder. Rewired it and slid it back into place. Put the screws back in and it wa s done. Plugged it back in, turned the gas on, tried it out and presto! It was perfect! Lit immediately and strong and now i have a brand new 20 year old stove. lol Happy girl! And this was done by 2 50 year old women!

Old igniter lost power to ignite gas..
  • Blair from Florence, NJ
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers
The first igniter was received broken. A replacement was received within 5 days. It was very easy to install once the protective cover was placed over the igniter end. In my opinion, this part should be sold with the protective cover already in place.

Oven would not light.
  • George from UKIAH, CA
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers, Socket set
Removed old igniter and replaced with new one.Tested oven and it went on. You need a phillips screwdriver to remove two screws and a small socket for the third screw to remove the igniter cage. Then pull out the wires from under the oven and disconnect. Reverse procedure to install new igniter. Reuse original connectors. Be very careful with the igniter because the tip is very fragile and can break easily.

Lower Bake Ignitor would glow, but would not ignite flame.
  • Robert from Sapulpa, OK
  • Easy
  • 1- 2 hours
  • Screw drivers, Wrench (Adjustable)
First, my wife and I pulled out the oven from wall to disconnect electric plug and, also with a wrench; I shut off the gas connection on the wall. I then removed front door of the oven by pulling up on door to have easy access to lower part of oven, and then removed pan to get to Igniter. Removed the three screws on cage that supported the Igniter and, I also had to remove several screws to the manifold and bottom pan that supports the manifold so that I could disconnect Igniter. I then was able to pull out old Igniter and, reconnect the new one. After that, I reinstalled everything in reverse. Before pushing oven back into wall; we made sure the new igniter worked. It worked just great. My wife and I were so happy and proud that we done it our self, and not have to call someone to do it for us. It took me and, my wife about an hour and a half to complete the job. I believe the reason it took us as long as it did was because we really didn't know what to expect. Now that we know; I am sure that we could do it again in 30 to 45 minutes. Dave & Marsha; 8/23/2013
