Shawn November 20, 2022 for Model Number MGR5755QDS My broiler and cook top are working fine. Oven is not working at all. Is the over and broiler igniter the same? Could I swap them for troubleshooting? What is the correct igniter for the oven.
1 Answer Shawn, The bake element is a different part number WP7432P136-60. It could work for testing if it connects but you should replace with the correct part number if you prove that to be the problem. Read More...
Andy B. March 02, 2021 for Model Number MGR5770ADB My oven will not light and the temperature seems to stay 100° no matter where the setting is set. Sounds like I need a new igniter for the oven. Can you identify the part number so I can order one from you? BTW the video was very helpful. Thanks
Pat September 23, 2019 for Model Number mgr57750db Is a broiler igniter the same as a oven igniter for my maytag
1 Answer Pat, not really, The 74007498 is the broil burner igniter and the WP7432P136-60 is the bake burner igniter. Both igniters are relatively the same, except for the wiring connectors/connections. The bake igniter has a different wiring connector than the broil igniter. You'll want to order and install the proper igniter on the proper burner tube. Thanks, Read More...
Steve October 31, 2018 for Model Number Mgr5755QDW maytag range I've pulled my oven igniter to replace it: the part number is 7432P131-60 (complete tag reads model 501A, 7432P131-60, 0426). The part number shown on your site differs by one number: 7432P136-60. Are these two numbers compatible?
1 Answer Steve, The number on the part is a manufacturers number for ordering from their distributor but the WP7432P136-60 will be the correct part for your unit. Read More...
John October 08, 2016 for Model Number MGS5770ADC serial # 11459189ZF Hi. Trying to figure out if lack of (and slow) oven heating, and occasional gas smell is due to the ignitor, or the gas valve. There are two oven ignitors listed, but no specification to top or bottom. Which is the correct OEM ignitor part for the lower/oven? The lower ignitor does come on and glows strong, but won't trigger gas flow even when the oven reaches 150 deg. Seems most the oven heat is being supplied by the electrical coil. I'm thinking that could indicate a bad gas valve, but it works fine for the broiler. Or, are there two gas valves used in this model? Also, the front right (high burner) doesn't click or ignite. All four burners ignite at the same time, so this one will ignite if you turn one of the other burners to ignition. I presume the ignitor switch is the problem. A few times, it will function properly. But, there seems to be at least 3, maybe 4 different types of switches, and no specific one for the series 11. Which is the correct switch to order?
1 Answer John, For this issue with the oven then this would most likely be caused by the oven safety valve which is part number WP74006427 For the top burner then this would be an ignition switch and the part number for the switch will be WP7403P287-60. Read More...
Les U. January 30, 2015 for Model Number MGRH752BDW The part number for the bake ignitor 7432P136-60, I check with your compatibility question, it said not compatible. What is the correct number for the bake ignitor for model Maytag MGRH752BDW? Thank you.
1 Answer Les, based on the model number given the oven igniter part number WP7432P136-60 is the correct replacement for your unit. Thanks! Read More...
Olga December 20, 2013 for Model Number AGR5735QDS My broiler and stove top work great on my gas range. Oven won't heat up though. I figured it was the oven heating ignitor. Decided I'd order a new one, and while I waited, I'd swap out the ignitor from the broiler and use it in place of the oven ignitor. When i went to pull out the broiler ignitor the connection between the ignitor element wiring and the red wire was completely melted (yikes!). So, although it was working fine, I'm replacing that ignitor as well. So now, no ignitors at all - two coming in the mail. My question: the red wire that was connected to my broiler ignitor - the connection melted. Do I need to order a new part, or can i find the right splicer at the hardware store? Thanks, Olga
1 Answer Hello Olga, This will work as long as the wires are long enough. You will most likely have to use ceramic wire nuts on both since few of these are retrofit. Read More...
Matt October 27, 2013 for Model Number Amana ACF3375AB I have an Amana oven that has been intermittently heating. So I reconnected the bake hot surface igniter and it worked for a few months. Then recently it stopped heating again. I checked for 120 volts at the connector and it is fine. Also checked the igniter for resistance and it is good. The igniter looks to be in good shape. Can these hot surface igniters be intermittent like this?
1 Answer Matt, Yes, the oven igniters can become intermittent and operate erratically. In some cases, if you look at the carborundum (dark portion) of the igniter closely, you can see a white colored spot or line in the surface. This is where there is a hair line crack in the assembly, and once the igniter heats and expands a few times, the circuit is broken and the igniter ceases to operate. The other "unseen" issue is in the white porcelain portion of the igniter. The wires from the end connector to the carborundum portion, are molded into the ceramic case, if the wires develop a "hidden" weak spot inside the casing, it will resistance check properly when "cold" but once voltage and amperage passes through the wire, it will separate and the igniter will cease working. You really can't tell unless you observe the igniter under operation and or conduct an amperage or low voltage test at the safety valve on the range. In the event of erratic oven temperatures, low oven temperatures and the like, the igniter accounts for 95 % of these issues and is the first place to start/repair. Read More...
John S May 31, 2013 for Model Number ACF3335AC I noticed that on the appliance I received, the white fabric enclosing the wire for the ignitor was not present. (When the two ignitors are sitting next to one another in the video, one of them has this white fabric around the wire, the other doesn't.) I'm replacing the ignitor right now and I'm wondering if I need to somehow transfer this white enclosing fabric from the wires of the old ignitor to my new ignitor? Or can I just put in the new ignitor exactly as it came?
1 Answer John, You do not have to transfer the wire wrap you can just install as it is. They put that on some units and not others. Read More...
Sheryl January 28, 2013 for Model Number Amana #AGR5735QDS Hi my name Sheryl I have an Amana gas range, the oven will not light but the broiler will work? Can you tell me how or what I need to check.
1 Answer Hello Cheryl, You will want check the oven ignitor. If you do an amp draw on the ignitor you should have between 3.2 and 3.6 amps. If you do not then replace ignitor. Also check to make sure ignitor is getting 120 vac to like. If there is 120vac but the ignitor is not glowing then ignitor WP7432P136-60 needs to be replaced. Read More...
