Questions & Answers

For Bosch Oven Burner Igniter (Part Number: OEM8498808)

Jin for Model Number Capital gas stove GCR305

I have a 10-year Capital gas stove and the model number is GCR305. It was manufactured by a California company. Recently the gas oven is not heating and it seems the oven igniter needs to be replaced. I could not find the exact part number from your website. I found the picture of Bosch Oven Burner Igniter 00415504. It seems the shape, size and wire end connection is very similar to the igniter of my oven. Can you please confirm that it is the right part that I could order? Thanks! Jin

Laura, Thanks for the question!!! There are four possible parts at fault. The ignitor, the switch, the spark module, or the wires. You will need to do some checking as to which one is bad. Unfornatuley, most of the parts for this model have been discontinued by the manufacturer.

Courtney, You could cut the connectors off and splice the wires together using ceramic wire nuts for this issue.

Domenic T for Model Number Thermador Professional - PRG366EG/06

My oven won't heat up. The range and broiler work. When I turn on the oven, the indicator light lights up, I hear the fan turn on, and I smell gas. The oven does not heat up. I took off the inside bottom plate and fire spreader. When I turn the oven on, I do not see any sparks or the elements glow hot, but again, I do smell gas. My oven is a Thermador Professional, purchased around 2006, model # PRG366EG/06 and serial # 880150000 or serial # 39801008503 500001. Can you assist on what may be the issue and part numbers that need to be replaced? Than you in advance for your help.

Domenic T, The most likely cause for this issue would be that the igniter is faulty. The part number for the igniter is 00492431.

Hello Marc, I realize that I haven't been there to see the flame, but it really sounds like either an air shutter adjustment or the burner 00487241 has an issue. If that doesn't correct the issue, the safety valve 00415497 will have to be the issue.

Hello Scott, If the bake compartment is operating normally, the problem will have to be the gas solenoid 00411253, or the valve body 00415499. You just need to check them to determine the cause of the issue. This is of course assuming that there has been no spill into the burner. If there has been a spill in the burner, it should be cleaned up with an old toothbrush and hot white vinegar.

Hello WGS! Unfortunately, the igniter has been discontinued with no further replacements or cross references available and our company is unaware of any other available sources. Sorry about that!

Hi. If the oven gas sputters during operation then the diaprahm in the safety valve part # 00415497 is defective. Remove power. Disconnect one wire off the safety valve terminals. Reading across the terminals should read 1-ohm resistance. And check each terminal to the valve metal body for shorts. The oven wheel in operation will read 3.0-3.3 vac across the terminals of a good operating device. If you have this voltage there then the igniter part # 00415504 needs replaced. Thank You.

Dennis for Model Number Thermador PRG364GLUS

Hi, This is Dennis again. I have already replaced the gas valve (duel oven safety valve 415497) about 8 months ago and the oven still does not get up to temp. You suggested replacing the pressure regulator. Are you talking about the main gas line pressure regulator or is there another one. If the main pressure regulator is bad wouldn't it affect the burners also? Can I test the pressure regulator? I will probably replace the igniter antway. Last time I turned the oven on it didn't light and the kitchen filled up with gas. Not a good thing. We were very lucky. I'm a full time paid professional Captain with the Kearny, NJ fire department and it wouldn't have looked good if my house blew up! I tried to light the oven again and the igniter was weak and I smelt gas but the gas didn't ignite so I turned the oven off. I think the igniter is bad and not getting hot enough to ignite the gas but still sending a signal to the gas valve to open. Could this be possible? Thanks again for your help, Dennis If you can call me it would be helpful.

Dennis, To answer both your questions, Yes, a weak oven igniter 00415504 could cause your issue. In fact most of the temperature issues in a gas range are due to a weak igniter. If you can get access to a clamp on ammeter, You could put the clsmp around one of the igniter wires, turn the oven on and set a temperatue. In approximately 60 seconds, You should see a 3.2 to 3.6 amp draw on the system, if the igniter is working properly. Any amp draw lower or intermittent, would create the symptoms you're describing. Thanks

Hello Dennis. No, this is either a bad gas valve or pressure regulator. Not the igniter.
