Roscoe April 03, 2018 for Model Number GE JGS968 Will the oven igniter (part # WB13T10045) also replace the broiler igniter ?
2 Answers Hello Roscoe, we list part number WB13T10045 for both the bake and broil burner. Thanks! Read More...
Maureen February 06, 2018 for Model Number JGS968S0H3SS Need to replace oven ignitor. Unscrewed the ignitor and pulled the wires through to oven. Found it odd that ignitor was spliced to wiring with ceramic wire nuts and from that point wiring was to a white plastic plug that was black/burnt/melted. On other side of plug are yellow wires. Can I cut out the plug, purchase an ignitor and splice directly into the yellow wires? Yellow wires seem short so what is the part that the yellow wires are attached to and can I just replace whatever contains the yellow wires with the original white plastic plug to plug in the new ignitor instead? Thank you.
1 Answer Maureen, The yellow wires will be part of the main harness assembly and would need to order that in order to get new wires. Unfortunately the manufacturer does not offer the wiring harness. The connector can be cut off the wire harness and spliced to the igniter. Read More...
Matt January 19, 2018 I know that the leads for an igniter are not polarized, but is the lead from the safety switch polarized? I ask because, during an igniter swap, someone may have accidentally cut that third wire. It may have been me. I'm not at liberty to say.
1 Answer Hello Matt, The gas safety valve is polarized. The neutral wire has to connect to a specific terminal and the bake and broil terminals have to be connected to the proper connections from the control board. For a proper diagnosis, we would need you to please verify the model number from the units' I.D. tag and post a new question so we can look up the wiring diagram and provide you with valid information for that model. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Douglas November 30, 2017 for Model Number wb2x9154 What size is the head of the sheet metal screws that hold the oven range igniter in place?

Bob March 27, 2017 for Model Number JGS905SEK1SS Broiler Hi or LO the flame is the same...looks like it is always low? I see 3.6 amps current at ignitor at Hi or Lo setting when glowing
1 Answer Hello Bob. It will look the same, but the sensor will work different inside the oven. Read More...
Peter December 12, 2016 for Model Number JGBS07DET1WW The oven was not lighting or heating so I ordered a replacement igniter as I've done with several other stoves in my building. When I went to replace the ignitor, I noticed that that one of the two wires connected to the gas safety valve had burned and melted onto the one of the diodes. Called GE and there is no replacement wiring for this model. Can I just trim off the burnt portion of the wire and reconnect? What causes the wire to burn in the first place? Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
1 Answer Peter, Yes you can terminate the connector currently on the wire and put a new connector on. The normal cause for a burnt connector would be that the connector overheated from a bad connection. Read More...
Michigan P October 24, 2016 for Model Number ACS3350AS I am having the Control Board to my Amanda gas oven repaired. One of the 4-pin connectors on the back of the control board was fried, along with the mating connector on the wire harness. If I obtain a new wire harness connector (not the entire wire harness), am I safe to cut and splice the three wire harness wires to the new connector?
1 Answer Michigan Pete, If you cut the fried connector off and are able to obtain a connector that will work then you can splice it in but will have to make sure that you have the correct connectors inside of the connector you get that will fit over the pins of the board. Read More...
Peter May 30, 2016 for Model Number JGSP28SEK5SS The cooktop and broil functions both work, but the oven will not heat up when trying to bake. We tested with the bottom cover off and the oven igniter did glow and caused the flames to catch a few times but failed several times afterwards. What is the likely culprit and what replacement options do we have? Thank you
1 Answer Hello Peter, This can be the ignitor WB13T10045 going into failure, the temperature sensor WB21X22134 , or the control WB27T11314. Read More...
Stephen February 15, 2016 for Model Number JGS968sohss3 I contacted you last week to get the correct part number for an oven ignitor. I was told part number WB13T10045. This seems like the right part except for the wire connector. this part has a plastic connector to attach to the wires providing power. However, the power connector in the back of the oven do not have a plastic connector just the wires. Please provide the correct part number or instructions to connect. thanks
1 Answer Hello Stephen. If the connector does not match up, you will splice the wires and use ceramic wire nuts to secure the wires together. Read More...
Phil B August 18, 2015 for Model Number JGS968SOH2SS Hi- From what I can tell, the correct igniter for the GE JGS968SOH2SS is part # WB13T10045. I see a couple of other questions that seem to indicate I could substitute a cheaper igniter, the only difference being that I would have to splice the wires. If this is correct, could you please tell me which would be the part to order, as I see a couple of different part numbers in different questions? Thanks a lot - Phil
