Oven Igniter - Vertical Mount Bake and Broil Specifications
This broil igniter assembly comes with its own metallic mounting bracket and a 7-inch-long dual wire lead with a plastic plug. This part will need to be repaired if your oven element is giving off no heat or very little, or is not heating evenly. You may also notice a smell of gas. The ignitor may still be glowing, but could still have gone bad. You will need a 1/4-inch nut-driver and a 5/16 nut-driver. Open the oven door and pull the door off the hinges to completely remove. Pull out the racks. Using your 1/4-inch nut driver, take out the screws at the bottom rear end of the oven, which will allow you to completely remove the bottom. Unscrew the nuts holding the igniter in place. Remove the igniter with the 5/16 nut driver. You should now have access to remove the old igniter.

Oven has slowly been failing to maintain temperature. It final decided not to come up to temp at all. The piece of metal in the back was glowing like it was hot though. Using a long lighter it did ignite and slowly increase in temp but very slowly. What parts would you suggest. Thanks.

Kitchen aid gas range... my gas burners ignite with no problems. my broiler works too. however my oven doesn't ignite. i would think the gas valve is ok due to the other part working. is this just the oven igniter? what are your thoughts. please attach the correct part number if you feel it's the igniter. thanks
For model number KGRS205TSS0

Oven will not light. No smell of gas. Changed out oven igniter. Put everything back together and tried oven. Oven still does not come on. I hear a click in control panel, but no fire in oven. Anything i can do to make the oven work?
For model number GW397LXUS06
Hello Randy,
Thank you for your question.
If the igniter is working and the oven still does not light, it may be an issue with your gas supply. I would check the regulator as well as the Safety Valve (Part# PS11744553).
Best of luck with your repair.
My igniter wires go through the back of the oven where do i plug in my new one do the wires connect through the back do i have to pull my wall oven out to get access to those wires
For model number JGW8130DDW
Hi Randy,
Thank you for your inquiry. You should not need to pull your appliance to replace these parts. However you may have to remove your appliance if your wires fell back into the hole. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

My oven takes a while to ignite the dies so with a whoosh and an explosive sound which pushes the oven door open. Does this mean the ignition is broken ?
For model number MGR5875QDQ
Hello Chana, thank you for your question. We would recommend replacing the oven igniters first. Usually when this happens, it means there is gas getting to the unit but the igniter is not getting hot enough to light until much longer than necessary. I hope this helps.

My oven igniter does not glow at all. I removed it to check continuity and it does have continuity. How many ohms of resistance should it have?
For model number CGS1740ADT
Hi Dave, Thank you for the question. You can test for 3.2-3.6 volts AC at the gas safety valve with the igniter turned on. If the voltage is good, you have a bad safety valve. If the voltage is low, you have a weak igniter. Hope this helps!

Oven lit and took a while to heat.Not too long later after not really reaching the cooking temp needed it started to give off an odor like a burning pot handle (gas?). Turned oven off checked for any object that may have been burning.None.Tried to put oven back on.Igniter glowed hot but would not ignite burner.What do you think could be the problem?

Oven did not heat up.
First I changed the temperature sensor and when it didn’t get hot I Also changed the igniter. Fired right up.
Took the bottom out of oven then removed and replaced with the new part. VERY EASY! I'm a 70-year-old woman and do quite a few home repairs myself.

Igniter on burner
Firmly grasp burner turn counter clockwise while lifting. Photograph the location of the wires. Remove with a Phillips head screwdriver. The igniter will lift and turn one quarter turn then pull through bottom. Reverse the steps to install the new igniter. Test knew igniter. Put tools away
Oven wouldn't reach temp, gas smell and loud pop when gas would re-ignite,took 45 mins or more to reach 350' from starting temp of 100'
Considered calling a repair facility, after reading your tips and what parts should fix what problem I decided to fix myself. Moved oven out,slide in gas range. Took off probe and tested with volt ohm meter, read 1090 ohms, should have been good. I could see oven igniter glow red, but I decided to replace both units, glad I did. Oven go's from 100' to 350' in 8 minutes now, for less than $85.00 have a fully functioning oven now. I'm sure the repair would have exceeded $300.00 or more being we live in a rural area. Thanks for the tips from your experts as well as you customers.
It's happened before and the igniter has always been the problem. This time, however, the mounting holes were slightly off and had to be drilled out. The connector didn't mate up and so both had to be cut off, the wire stripped back and wire nuts used to make the connection. In the end, it all worked out. I guess since its kind of old, you can't stock every component for every oven. Oven works perfectly now.

Broiler wouldn't turn on(ignite)
Ordered the broiler igniter that matched my model from part select and installed. Easy and part works as it should. Only took a few days to get here and saved me $40 by not purchasing at a local parts store as well. Will use part select if there are any future needs.

My igniter burnt out. My oven stopped lighting up.
I ordered a new igniter and when it arrived, i removed the door from the oven. It just lift's off. I had to removed two screws from the bottom plate to gain access to the igniter. Remove the two screws from the igniter and unplug it from the back of the lower back of the stove. Place the new igniter where the old one was and plug it in. Put new screws in and tighten them down. Put the bottom plate back in its place with screws tightened. Put oven door back on and turn on the oven. That's all there is to it. Your done.

Faulty oven igniter
Removed door and bottom oven pan to expose igniter. It was held in place by two sheet metal screws. Tried to back them out but due to heat damage , they stripped. I used my versa tool with a metal blade to cut the screws. I removed the old igniter and disconnected the plug, after I guided it out from the insulation. I installed the new igniter with two new self tapping screws after I connected the plug and guided it back through the insulation. Reinstalled the oven pan and door. I set the oven to 350° and the new igniter worked. Wife is happy and I saved the repairman fees.

We have had to replace several of these in my oven so I've got it down now. Only difference this time was the connection was different than the connection on my oven. But a couple of wire nut later everything was fine and I have an oven again.

Easy repair.
Gas oven no longer heating up. Indication that igniter is faulty. Removed oven door simply by lifting it up off of hinges, removed bottom tray(2 screws). Removed two screws holding igniter in. Pulled oven out from wall, unplugged it from wall, located wire connector, disconnected easily by pinching tabs, pulled igniter and wires out thru front. Fed new wires thru hole and connected them, reconnected igniter and bingo! Oven works fine now. Total time maybe 20 minutes. Easy ordering, recieved in 3 days.
Have repaired washers, dryers, stoves and my wife’s kitchen aid mixer using PartSelect. Love the repair videos.
