Do-It-Yourself Story

I replaced the oven igniter after reading many of the posts on the appliancepartspros.com forum. Amana Gas Range (AGR5835QDB): Turned OFF electrical circuit for oven. Removed oven door. Removed inside bottom panel of oven by removing the two screws at the back of the panel bottom, lifting the back up and after sliding the front lip of panel out from from oven frame, removed from oven. Removed 2 screws holding holding the oven ignitor in front of the burner. Pulled the wiring through into the oven and disconnected the wiring from the wiring socket. Plugged in the new oven ignitor, and pushed the excess wire back through the wiring opening. Attached new ignitor with 2 screws removed from old ignitor. Reinstalled oven bottom panel. Reattached oven door. Turned electrical circuit for oven back ON. Tested and problem was resolved. Total time for repair from start to finish was just under 15 minutes and cost me a lot less dollars than a service call or a new range. The repair was made easy by the customer service department being able to email the service manual for my range to me which gave explicit instructions for removal of the oven door and exactly how to go about replacing the ignitor.
