Randy for Model Number JGBP30BEA3WH The oven ignites ok but takes up to 30 min to come up to temp and sometimes never gets there. Its a gas oven. I replaced the control board and that didnt help. The broiler sometimes lights and not sometimes. I checked the oven thermostat with ohm meter and it was with in specs. Any ideas?
Answer Hello Randy, You should check the amperage through the ignitors. It sounds like you either have an ignitor going out of tolerance or a gas valve failing. To determine witch is the problem, put a clamp on ampmeter on only one of the two ignitor wires and turn the unit on to bake. The amperage reading should be from 3.2 to 3.6 amps. If it is low, the ignitor is failing and will have to be replaced. If not, the safety valve most likely has an internal mechanical issue. Read More...
