My Whirlpool oven does not work. The controls are all working though but when I turn on the oven, there is no flame coming out? Is it the gas valve?
Meila for Model Number SF367LEMQ
Answer Hello Meila. You will need to check and see if the oven igniter is sparking to lite the gas. If it is not, you may need to replace the spark module W10331686. Hope this helps.

Good morning, My oven will not turn on, heat up, nothing. When I turn on the bake function, timer comes on and counts down but oven will not do nothing. There are no clicking sounds as if the ignitor was trying to ignite the gas. I do not smell any gas when I turn the oven on, however, when I turn the broiler on, there are 2 clicks tryng to ignite the broiler but still nothing, no gas smell either. I was told by my brother this might be some sort of valve, could you please let me know? Thank you

Answer Deb,
Test for 3.2-3.6 amps at the gas safety valve with the igniter turned on. If the voltage is there, you have a bad safety valve. If the voltage is low, you have a weak igniter and the igniter will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
I have a Whirlpool Range and the burners light but the oven doesn't. For both broil and bake settings I get 2 clicks but it doesn't light. There is no gas smell. I've heard spark module, Regulator, Ignitor Switch and Valve. How do I find out exactly what it is that I need to get?
Thanks!

Answer Heather,
You will want to test your oven safety valve to make sure that it is good. The way to do this is to check for 216 ohms on the terminals bake to common and broil to common on the safety vavle. If it does not read 216 then the valve is bad and will need to be replaced. You can also do an amp draw on the ignitor to ensure that you are getting 3.2 to 3.6 amps. If not then ignitor is bad. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Answer Hello Dawn. If there is no clicking in the bake mode, then you need to test and see if the control is sending power to the module. If not, replace the control. If so, replace the module. It would not be the valve preventing the igniter from sparking. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

My top burners light up and inmediatly goes down and the flame stay very small.

Answer Hello Santos. Make sure the gas coming to the unit is at the correct pressure. if so, the regulator may be bad and need to be replaced on the unit.
THE OVEN STARTS AND IN A FEW MINUTES IT GOES OFF
Chris for Model Number SF378LEPS WHIRLPOOL GAS RANGE
Answer Chris, First thing, check and make sure the power cord is attached to a properly polarized and grounded 120 VAC outlet. A proper ground is very important for the range to operate properly.Then you'll need to make several tests at the gas distribution valve. You'll need a multi meter to test voltage and resistances. At the valve body terminals, with the wires labeled and remove from the middle terminal to each of the outer terminals, you should read 215 ohms resistance. With the wires reconnected, when you select the bake cycle, you should have a reading of 8 to 18 VDC across the red and orange wires. When you make a broil selection you should have the same 8 to 18 VDC,across the orange and blue wires. If all checks are proper(within 10%) repalce the oven bake burner and igniter. Here's a link to meter usage, should you need it. [http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html]
