  • Sticking or worn internal seals can cause hard-to-turn operation or gas odor
  • Failure may prevent the burner from lighting or shutting off completely
  • Inconsistent or unresponsive flame adjustment can indicate a failing valve
What's included: 1 valve Install notes:
  • Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
  • Allow the appliance to cool; access the valve/manifold per your model's instructions
  • Mark and disconnect tubing and any wires; transfer fittings or a separate spark switch from the old valve if applicable
  • After installation, restore gas and check all joints with an approved leak-detection solution; verify proper burner operation

Hello Brian. I think the ignitor 316489403 is probably bad. You see, the ignitor not only has to get red, but then it has to get even hotter. It has to get almost white hot. Until the time it gets this hot, there isn't enough current flowing in the circuit to open the safety valve. Not only is it the most common part to fail, but it is also exposed to the most heat, (as you know electronics number one enemy is heat). There is the possibility that the safety valve 316404901 has failed, but those only fail once in a very great while. I hope this helped you! Have a great day!
