The Flat Style Oven Igniter Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It is designed to ignite the gas in the oven burner, facilitating the start of the heating process. This igniter is crucial for ensuring your oven heats up quickly and efficiently, providing the necessary flame for cooking and baking.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Igniter include:

  • The oven failing to heat up or taking a long time to reach the desired temperature.
  • A noticeable gas smell when the oven is turned on, indicating the gas is not igniting.
  • The igniter glowing without producing a flame, which can point to a lack of adequate temperature to ignite the gas.

Causes of a bad oven igniter can include the wear and breakdown of the igniter element over time, a faulty electrical connection, or a disruption in the gas supply.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Hello Ron. You can cut the wires anywhere. Just make sure there is enough wires to splice into the new ignitor. There is no difference in the wires.

Hello David. You would have to order the whole harness for that part. If it is for the ignitor, you would be best to use ceramic wire nuts on the ignitor wires and splice them together.

Hello Bob, The ignitor should glow yellow to white hot. Orange is normally not hot enough to open the gas valve. If you have access to a clamp pn amp meter you can test for 3.2 to 3.6 amps of current. Less current indicates a failing ignitor.

Bob, basically you have a weak igniter 12400035. when voltage is applied to the igniter, it should glow "white" hot in 60 to 90 seconds and draw 3.2 to 3.6 amps in order to open the safety valve and ignite. Replace the igniter and you'll probably be fine for a few more years.
