Ray for Model Number agr5715qdq When i turn on my oven and set the temperature, i smell gas and it takes 25 minutes or more to bring it up to temp. (say 350*). I had the ignitor replaced but that doesn't seem to be the problem. Do I need a new gas valve?
Answer Ray, Have you checked the burner flame, color and size ?, an all blue flame, no yellow or white tips and 3/4 to 1 long ? Are the top burner flames proper ? It sounds like you may have a weak igniter or a loose connection in the wiring. You should get a "clamp on ammeter" or multimeter to check the amp draw of the ignition system (3.2 to 3.6 amps) or 3.2 to 3.6 VAC at the safety valve terminals from the glow bar, to verify the igniter operation. If that all checks OK, then go at the safety valve. this may help you out, [http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html] Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
