Joe October 23, 2011 for Model Number DACOR PGR30S Is there another thermal igniter I can use for the oven (Other than the DACOR OEM Part)?
1 Answer Hello Joe! Unfortunately, we can only recommend the parts that the manufacture suggests as a replacement to your appliance. If you are needing the bake/broil ignitor we can only suggest part number DE81-07046A. Sorry about that! Read More...
Chris October 23, 2011 for Model Number Maytag range MGR4452BDW Same question as many. Burners operate fine, oven will not fire. Ran continuity on the igniter & got about 34 ohms. There is a small "square" assembly that looks like a gas valve. (One of the igniter wires runs to it thru a 2 wire connector. There is 120VAC present on the valve - if it is, in fact, a valve. Thanks in advance.
1 Answer Chris, is this the "valve " you're discussing WP74009891 ? You should have 120 VAC to the terminals in a non cook mode. if you check resistance across the two terminals, you should have a "closed" circuit. When you program a bake mode and the igniter is glowing, the circuit should draw 3.2 to 3.6 amps, or have 3.2 to 3.6 VAC across the bake valve terminals, if all checks OK on your meter, the valve would be defective. If the amperage or voltage is low, you have a weak igniter. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Tawni October 22, 2011 for Model Number 790.71105893 Im trying to replace my ignitor on my oven but I need a diagram how to connect to safety switch. Where can I find this information at?
1 Answer Hi Tawni. The wiring diagram is supplied behind the storage drawer or the control panel folded in a small packet. When replacing the ignitor wear gloves and do not touch the carbon ignitor itself. You cut the old ignitor wires close to the ignitor and use the ceramic wire nuts to secure wires. Make sure you take time to dress and tuck all wires out of the burner flame area. Thank You. Read More...
Joyce October 19, 2011 for Model Number TGF316GSB I need an igniter kit for my Tappan oven. It has two wires coming out of the grey ceramic blocks but one has a t on one wire.
1 Answer Hello Joyce! The oven ignitor used on your appliance is part number 5304509706. Thanks. Read More...
Steve October 18, 2011 for Model Number 70231 (Hardwick) My oven/broiler will not light. The burners light and work fine. I replaced the ignitor and oven/broiler is still not lighting. I ran a continuity test on the new ignitor and it seems fine. I am getting power down to the ignitor and down the red wire to the oven valve. Do you know what the problem could be? Do I need to replace the oven valve?
1 Answer Hello Steve. If there is 3.2 to 3.4 volts AC at the gas valve, and no gas is released, you will need to replace the gas valve. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Chris October 11, 2011 for Model Number 64HA-WTKVW All for stove top burners work, the broiler and bake do not work. When I first hooked up, everything worked, now the broiler/bake ignitors do not heat up and light the oven or broiler. If you hold the bake or broiler button in, the ignitors will heat up and light the broiler or oven but go out as soon as you release the buttons
1 Answer Chris, Your issue will be with the relay board or wiring harness between the relay board and clock. Could you supply us with the serial number of your range, so we can verify and advise you properly. Thanks Read More...
Ron September 23, 2011 for Model Number 9112xpb hi...2 part question...is there a diagram showing the correctly installed igniter,and, does the igniter stay aglow after the oven is started?...thanks
1 Answer Ron, No theres not a digram, As long as the mounting bracket does not get distorted or bent, its a straight across part for part exchange and mount (two screws, and wire nuts). Once the burner has ignited and is burning, there will be a slight orange glow to the glow bar, so the glow bar has to be encompassed by the flame, to keep the resistance low enough to keep the valve open. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Danny September 19, 2011 for Model Number 31001PAT i have a magic chef oven.. the four gas burners work but the broiler and oven don't work.. the oven ignitor same to to burn out.. one of the wire looks bare and it looks like it grounded it self out.. the pilot doesn't lite either. i don't even smell the propane.. and how do i know if its a round or flat igniter.
1 Answer Danny, All newer gas cooking products use a "flat" type oven igniter 12400035 . There are more components involved in the ignition and flame operation of the oven, and with a shoted bare wire, I fear there could be more damage. Theres the possibiliy that the contacts in the thermostat have shorted or a damaged switch in the oven burner valve, so be ready to need to investigate further if the igniter and repairing the wire don't solve your issue. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Jeff September 12, 2011 for Model Number Magic Chef Range Model #3468xva You just answered a question for me.. Your answer was very helpful.. I just wanted to ensure that it isnt the preasure regulator or gas valve that can be bad. My oven does not light , broiler as well as all top burners work properly . Igniter for oven gets extremely hot but oven gas rail wont ignite... I'm assuming since everything else is working , the regulator as well as gas valve are fine ??? ( You told me to replace igniter ) Thank you
1 Answer Hello Jeff. Test for 3.2-3.6 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 12400035 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. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Cindy September 02, 2011 I have a maytag gas oven. There are two ignitors one broil one bake. Are the ignitors the same part or two different?
1 Answer Hello Cindy. What is the model number of the unit? Thanks. http://www.appliancepartspros.com/modelnumber_locator.aspx Read More...
