Lorac February 06, 2023 for Model Number Tgf657bfw5 Will this igniter fit my model for replacing the broil igniter ap2150414 . I have a Tappan oven
1 Answer Lorac, unfortunately, we would not be able to recommend an alternative to the manufacturer's recommended broil igniter 318177730. We would not be able to guarantee it would mount properly and have the same operating parameters. Read More...
Mike November 06, 2021 for Model Number PLGF389CCC Everything works on the range. The oven (Bake, Conv Bake) and the burners work. The only issue issue is the broiler. When I press the broiler button, the temp 550 shows up on the control board. Once I press the word start I get the "F 1" error code. To clear it I press the cancel button. Not sure if this is a Electronic Oven Control, Oven Temperature Sensor or Igniter issue.
1 Answer Mike, the oven sensor would need to be tested for resistance and it should measure 1080 to 1100 Ohms of resistance at room temperature. If it checks good, the failure would be in the oven control 316207603. Read More...
Jay Brooks February 13, 2019 for Model Number GFG461LVS3 Hi, the issue that I am having is the top burner in my oven wont light when I try to bake but if I turn broil on the top burner will light. upon further investigation I noticed that when I set the oven to bake the top burner does not get a supply of gas but the bottom burner does. both igniters are sparking. is this a problem with the gas valve or the control board.
1 Answer Jay, With the top not lighting during the bake cycle then this would most likely be an issue with the board. Read More...
Ken November 24, 2015 for Model Number FGF379WJCB My oven will not light. Resistance on the igniter is measuring 158 ohms, is this a good reading?
1 Answer Hello Ken. You can not get a good reading with ohms. Test for 3.0-3.6 volts AC at the gas safety valve with the igniter turned on. If the voltage is there, you have a bad safety valve. If the voltage is low, you have a weak igniter and the igniter will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Chuck J. July 19, 2015 for Model Number GLGFZ386FCD I have a broiler problem. Everything lights up except for the broiler. I installed a new broiler igniter and get 3.4 A off each leg to the igniter I get 2.4 A off of a blue wire for the broiler on the dual safety valve and the other leg (white wire) I get about 3.4 but its paralleled to the oven side of the safety valve. My only thought is that it could be the elbow in the corner that supplies the gas to the burner but I don't even hear the valve open.
1 Answer Hello Chuck, This will have to be an issue in the gas valve 316404901 if the igniter is pulling 3.6 amps of current. Read More...
Mark June 12, 2015 for Model Number 790.75752100 After setting the oven temp to 350F, it will preheat but never reach that temperature. I have the smell of gas at times, which makes me believe the safety valve is working properly. I have an upper and a lower igniter. When set I see the lower igniter glowing bright reddish, yet I do not see the upper igniter glowing at all. The upper igniter had 209 ohms unplugged and removed from the oven. The lower igniter had 196 ohms unplugged and removed from the oven. The safety valve connectors both had 1.1-2.2 ohms. With the oven turned on and set to 350F and igniter on, I was getting 2.6 AC volts from the connector. Is this indicating a bad igniter? If so, which one or both?
1 Answer Mark, You will want to do a voltage test at the valve for the bake and broil. Test to make sure that there is 3.2 to 3.6 vac at each location. If there is not then the igniter will be the issue. Read More...
Rose December 17, 2014 for Model Number TGF362BBBA Hi! I have an old Tappan range TGF362BBBA that is not heating for the Bake cycle. When I press Preheat the broiler ignites for about 10 minutes, then goes off and the oven igniter turns yellowish orange, and then it emits a faint smell of gas. It hasn't been working correctly for a while now, but before I would just open the oven door and it would make a poof sound and then ignite. I also noticed that the broiler flame seems so big, not sure if that means anything or not. I just wasn't sure if I should just replace the oven igniter, or could it be something more expensive?? Thank you!!
1 Answer Hello Rose. Test for 3.0-3.6 volts AC at the gas safety valve with the igniter turned on. If the voltage is there, you have a bad safety valve. If the voltage is low, you have a weak igniter and the igniter will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

1 Answer Mary, the alternative igniter is part number 5303935068 which has the tag NORTON on it. Thanks. Read More...
Jennifer July 12, 2014 for Model Number ES200/300 fridgadare Oven/Stove Gas Range - Turned on and worked great Saturday. Next day preheated for a bit, then came back in to put lasagna in the oven and I smelled gas. Turned off the oven. The oven wasn't even hot. The burners still work. Broiler went out about 2 years ago. Didn't use it much, so I didn't care. But I need my oven! I have zucchini bread to bake! Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Jennifer, While this sounds like possibly more than one component causing the issue, we need to ask you to please verify the model number on the units' I.D. tag. The model number you provided, ES200 comes up as an electronic air cleaner and ES300 comes up as an electric range, (no gas). Please re-post with the verified information and we will assist you quickly as possible so you can get your bread baked. Read More...
Bobby May 29, 2014 for Model Number plgf389cca Broiler and burners work fine...oven heats to preheat temp but frequently will not maintain temp...occassionally takes extended period of time to preheat in addition to the above issue...i have noticed an orange glow in the bottom of the oven when the oven is functioning/malfunctioning...thank you for your time.
1 Answer Bobby, Based on the information provided it sounds like you will want to check the oven sensor to see if it is within range. The resistance should be 1090 ohms and if not within range then the sensor would need to be replaced. Read More...
