Golf March 06, 2015 for Model Number agr5630bds1 Oven ignitor clicks but doesn't light how do you replace ignitor. where is electrical clip located. ive replaced them before but cant find where electrical end is located or how to access.
1 Answer Golf, If you remove the oven bottom of the unit and access the burner. The connector is right by the edge of the burner. You would want to remove the burner to see it. Read More...
Bert February 11, 2015 for Model Number agr5360bdw1 Hi The oven igniter has an intermitting spark issue. Some times it will spark and light the gas bar other times it will spark once then miss then spark then miss without gas igniting. Do I have a bad igniter or is it in the control module. Thanks
1 Answer Bert, With this issue, If the igniter is sparking then it will most likely not be the cause of failure unless the igniter insulator is cracked. This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty spark module but you will want to also check the resistance of the safety valve to ensure that it is good. The valve should have a 216O resistance reading from the bake to common and from broil to common. If there is not the proper resistance then replace the oven safety valve. Read More...
Joseph P January 31, 2015 for Model Number WFG374LVQ1 Hi, I replace the igniter on my Whirlpool oven. It lite once. The second time I tried the oven it would not lite? Is it possible that the part is defective or is there another problem that I should be looking at? thanks.
1 Answer Joseph, You will want to check the oven safety valve to make sure that it is good. Test for 216 ohms of resistance from bake to common and from broil to common. If the resistance is not correct then replace the oven safety valve. Read More...
Dave P. January 23, 2015 for Model Number WFG524SLAB0 Sometimes the oven will heat up and then shut off. If we reset it, it will work fine. This only happens once every 5 or 6 times of using the oven. Can you tell us what it might be? Thank You, David Pelcher
1 Answer Dave, there are lot's of possibilities, first is the range on Natural gas or LP gas. You may have fluctuating pressure to the range. check and make sure the range power cord is plugged into a properly polarized and grounded, 120 VAC outlet. Check the wiring at the gas valve, igniter and spark module. If all's OK, suspect a weak or faulty solenoid on the gas valve/regulator assembly WPW10602001. Read More...
Darlene January 23, 2015 for Model Number SF362LXSY0 Neither the broiler nor the bake will work on my Whirlpool Accubake range. What is the most likely cause? Could both the igniters have gone out at the same time?
1 Answer Hello Darlene. If neither the bake or broil is sparking, and there is power to the module from the control board, you will need to order and replace the spark module WPW10331686 on the unit. 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...
Jesse January 21, 2015 for Model Number WFG524SLAS How can you tell if the spark igniter is not working . The boil works fine . The bake will not lite. You can hear the igniter trying to lite.
1 Answer Hello Jesse. You will need to check and see if you can see a spark from the igniter. If you see a spark, then test the gas valve. Check between each solenoid for 216O resistance. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Sherri December 13, 2014 I have and old sears/Kenmore gas stove. The burners work fine. However when I want to use the oven to bake anything it works sometimes but then other times it doesnt. It just has a mind of its own. I dont know the model number but I do know it is at least 15 years old. Can you tell me what would cause this problem? We have vacumned the lines and blew thru them with air but no luck. Can I fix this myself possibly? Thank you
1 Answer Hello Sherri, If the components are all getting the proper voltages at the proper times, the gas valve is the most likely culprit. This would explain the intermittence of the problem. I'm sorry but we will need the model number to see what configuration you have for a more detailed diagnostic procedure. Read More...
Eric B. November 28, 2014 for Model Number mgr7762ws3 My Maytag range, every thing works except the oven. when the oven is turned on it has a delay then starts clicking with a strong odor of gas then turns off any ideas. I just replaced the spark module?
1 Answer Eric, You'll need to check or replace the gas valve WPW10293048. The gas valve has three terminals, the center terminal is the "common" circuit. From the center terminal to each outer terminal you should have a resistance of 215 ohms with the wires disconnected. with the wires reattached, and a bake cycle programmed you should read 8 to 18 volts DC across the orange and red wires from the DSI spark module. You should also have 8 to 18 volts DC across the orange and blue wires when broil is selected. If all checks OK, replace the gas valve. Read More...
Baker Gal November 23, 2014 for Model Number CGS3760ADW Hi I have a Maytag gas oven that ignites and heats to temp, but then will read "F1" ( fire) fan comes on and oven shuts off. But, it does not do this every time I use the oven, sometimes I can run it for three hours at a high temp (425f) without a problem. Generally though the above happens, and even if oven has cooled fan will suddenly come on, then off, then on again.
1 Answer Baker Gal, You will want to do a resistance check on the oven sensor to make sure that it is good. The resistance should be 1090 ohms at room temp. If the resistance checks ok then the issue will be in the control board and the control will need to be replaced. The part number for the control board is WP5760M185-60. Read More...
