Jd November 25, 2013 for Model Number AGS761 We noticed an odd smell from the oven for a few last uses. Finally it quit working. One of the connecting wires to my ignitor burned. While removing the ignitor to examine things we broke the coil. I just replaced it and the 1 wire where they connect burnt again while the oven was preheating. Is the problem outside of my ignitor or did I not connect the wires correctly? Thank you. JD
1 Answer Hello Jd. If the wire is burning, it sounds like it was not connected good and is shorting out. Read More...
Sue November 04, 2013 for Model Number Amana Gas Downdraft Range AGDS902 My Amana range is having problems in bake mode. The igniter takes a long time to come on. Up until now that was ok, I'm patient. However now it comes on for a short while and then goes off again and repeats this cycle for as long as it takes to get to the desired temperature or I give up. To get to 375 takes almost an hour. An appliance repair man indicated the control board was bad, however he never tested the igniter, only looked at it. The control board for this model is no longer available so I'm trying to make sure the diagnosis is correct before purchasing a new range.
1 Answer Hello Sue. 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 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. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Johnny October 17, 2013 for Model Number rss359 two questions..... 1. Old igniter coil broken. Old part number 786324. replacement part __________? Looks different--but will it work? 2. two wires that connect the igniter to two wires from the oven unit. When I reconnect, does it matter which wire goes to which oven wire?
1 Answer Hello Johnny. Yes, the new igniter should work, and it does not matter which wire goes where on the igniter. Read More...
Amy H. September 15, 2013 for Model Number RFK3700UW p1141223nw I have ordered this part and it is showing that my original ignitor has been discontinued and this one is being used in place of it. my old ignitor was much smaller. how would this part install in place of the old?
1 Answer Hello Amy, If your model number is RSK3700UW, which is the closest thing I could find to the listed model number, the 786324 is correct and it will fit. You will just have to remove the old one and try it and you may be surprized that it is as easy as it is. One note, on this type of burner, you should tie a string to the wires before pulling the old ones out. This gives you an easy routing of the wires for the new ignitor during the re-installation since the larger ignitor takes away from the routing space. Read More...

Graham E May 12, 2013 for Model Number phu202ub Power is on oven will not work, tried doing self clean it appears to work but shuts off in less than 1 minute. Seems to be ignite but suspicious something else is going on. Is it the igniter?
1 Answer Hello Graham. 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 will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Joe S January 13, 2013 for Model Number Amana stove model AGS761L The igniter for the broiler at the top of my oven is a flat ceramic igniter that appears to be identical to the one used at the bottom for the oven burner, yet when I enter the model number, the part that comes up for the top burner (which I assume means the broiler) is a spark igniter that does not look like what is used in my stove. Is it possible my Amana model uses the same type igniter for the upper broiler as well as the lower oven burner, and is that what I should order???for the upper broiler. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Joe, The ignitor for you unit broil and bake is 786324. It may look different from the original but is manufacturer part. Read More...
Mike January 11, 2013 for Model Number frigidaire es100 gas oven The oven comes on and heats, and gets to temp. At higher temp the oven will shut off and not turn back on. I believe the igniter is "worn out" and fails at higher temps. or, is it more likely the thermometer/thermostat?
1 Answer Hello Mike, As long as the ignitor is getting between 3.2 to 3.6 amps then it would be fine. You may want to check your oven temp sensor. If the sensor is reading improperly it will cause unit to possibly not cycle back on. Read More...
