Debbie for Model Number 12 123823/08355 serial # 12513716 I have a gas tappan oven problem is when you turn the top oven to heat temp. at 400 sometimes it will light and sometimes it will not. The boiler works fine.
Answer Hello Debbie. Test for 3.2-3.6 volts AC 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 WB2X9154 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. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
