Roy for Model Number JGBS23BEA2WH The burners on top work and the oven pilot light comes on but the oven does not light, is this the oven yhermostat or what else could it be?
Answer Roy, The thermostat is the least likely issue at this point. A weak igniter WB13K21 is the most likely issue at this point. When you start the bake cycle, the igniter should be glowing "white" hot in 60 to 90 seconds. This produces an amp draw of 3.2 to 3.6 amps on the igniter circuit, and 3.2 to 3.6 VAC to the safety valve. When this is achieved, the safety switch opens and the gas is ignited. Based on your post, the igniter is glowing, but not hot enough to open the valve. Thanks Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, August 1, 2012
