Patrick January 12, 2019 for Model Number JGBP90MEB5BC What about a video replacing a broiler igniter? My stove has one for the oven and a separate one for the broiler.
1 Answer Hello Patrick, The broil ignitor is normally mounted in the same manner as the bake ignitor but in the top of the oven so no parts have to be removed to access it. Read More...
Diane December 18, 2018 I replaced my oven igniter about 6 months ago and everything worked fine until last night. The igniter lights up but is not opening the gas valve. Is thus a faulty igniter?
1 Answer Diane, You will want to test the oven safety valve for 3.2-3.6 vac getting to it and if there is not proper voltage then the igniter would be the issue. If there is proper voltage then the oven safety valve will be the issue. Read More...
Crystal November 29, 2018 for Model Number 362.75322003 When using my oven it takes longer to bake than it should. When I preheat oven it comes up to temperature. When I'm baking something, the oven will light burn, a few seconds, then go back out. My husband has checked the temperature and it's at least 10° off when baking, (preheat is within a couple of degrees). It took 5 hours to bake our turkey for Thanksgiving at a temperature of 15° higher than it should have. Broil works fine. My husband thinks this could be the igniter.
1 Answer Hello Crystal, This can be the ignitor WB13K21 since an increase in heat causes an increase in temperature will cause an increase in resistance. This can be a sign of an electrically stressed ignitor. The only other thing that can cause this is the oven safety valve WB19K36 going into failure. Read More...
Leroy November 23, 2018 Where do you look for the Model Number on GE Ranges? I could not find it. Thanks

Andy November 20, 2018 for Model Number GE RANGE JGBS23WEH5WW Boiler/Oven knob is in OFF position, but the oven igniter just glow. The flame automatically starts afterward. I cannot turn it off. I just replaced the oven igniter, but it still automatically glow and start the flame. Please help. Below is a video.https://photos.app.goo.gl/pr9yoWrLHKsBwoiL9
1 Answer Andy, If the oven igniter is coming on with the unit in the off position make sure that the knob is not cracked and not turning the thermostat off. If this checks ok then the thermostat would be the most likely cause for this issue and is part number WB20K8. Read More...
Alice October 16, 2018 for Model Number GE Xl44 I need a oven igniter with a male/male plug. Plug from the oven is a female/female. Do you have one?
1 Answer Alice, That model number does not come up for us in the diagram. Could you check for the correct number and repost a new question with all the info. Read More...
Allen S September 22, 2018 for Model Number JGB918SEL3SS GE range. Sometimes when lighting, the oven makes a loud boom. If stove top burners are on, the flames go from blue to yellow. Whats going on here?
1 Answer Allen, If your unit is set up on LP gas then make sure that the tank is not low. If it is not or you are natural gas then it sounds like there could be an issue with the regulator of the unit. Read More...
Ron September 04, 2018 for Model Number JGBP34g3P1WH How many watts of an inverter do I need to operate the oven on this GE44XL range at the cottage where I have no hydro?
1 Answer Ron, According to the manufacturer the max amp draw on this unit would be 5 amps and uses 120 vac. By having these 2 values and using ohms law it would show that the wattage for the unit would be 600 Watts. The calculation you would use would be voltage x current which amperage. Read More...
Mike N August 18, 2018 I hAve a GE profile oven. The cook top gas burner work perfect but the oven will on leave the 100 degree setting. What should i start with
1 Answer Mike, here is something you can check, Test for 3.2-3.6 vac 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. Read More...
Martin July 25, 2018 for Model Number JGB900SEP2SS our JGB900SEP2SS oven won't start, top burners work fine. When we program the oven or broiler temp and press start, it will pause for a couple of seconds & then will have 3 beeps that typically indicates reaching the designated temperature and then shut down. I replaced the lower burner igniter w/ part #WB13K21 and situation remain as above. Can same part be used for the upper or broiler igniter?
1 Answer Martin, yes, the broil and bake igniters are the same part. Test for 3.2-3.6 vac 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 Read More...
