Go November 16, 2012 for Model Number stove/gas/ maytag crg98--aab Where do I find thermostat how to replace.
1 Answer Hello Go, To replace the oven sensor in unit you will first have to pull unit from wall. Unplug and pull back cover off the unit. Once back cover is off the sensor has 2 screws holding it in place and has white wire with plastic connector at the end of it. Remove the screws and disconnect connector. Reconnect new sensor and reassemble unit. Read More...
Daniel October 12, 2012 for Model Number JGW8130DDW My gas oven, a Jenn-Air JGW8130DDW purchased in late 2005, will get up to heat when it is first turned on. But once the initial heat to temperature has occurred, and the flame goes off, the flame does not come back on, and the temperature fades off. I first measured the resistance of the temperature sensor, and it was 1090 ohms at room temperature, within the 1000 to 1100 ohm range I had read as proper, so I did not replace it. Then I checked the ignitor, and it measured at 3.1 amps, slightly below the 3.2 to 3.6 Amp range suggested. So I replaced the ignitor, figuring that if it was on the edge it could work when cool, but not when hot. But even with the new ignitor that measures out at 3.6 amps, the oven still has the same problem. Please advise.
1 Answer Daniel, You didn't mention any error or failure codes. Chances are you have a weak bake burner igniter 74007498. and after a few cycles it fails and won't re igniter the bake burner. You'll need to remove the racks, oven bottom panel and flame spreader, and turn the oven on. with a "clamp on" ammeter around one of the igniter wires, the meter should have a reading of 3.2 to 3.6 amps in 30 to 60 seconds, If not the igniter is weak and will need to be replaced. Without a meter, you may have to observe the ignition procedure several cycles. The igniter should glow "white" hot (not orange or red) in 30 to 60 seconds. If not, the igniter is weak and will need to be replaced Read More...
Gj September 21, 2012 for Model Number Maytag Oven BCRG860 When I set my oven to 350, it goes to 100 and does not move. There is an F1 on the display. I changed the oven ignitor. The oven sensor reads 1.129 on the ohm meter.
1 Answer GJ, Your most likerly issue is a weak or inoperatice glow bar igniter 12400035 On your type range, the F1 code would indicate a temp. sensor issue(your's is new) or a failed circuit in the clock 7601P155-60 or 7601P181-60 (depending on your serial number/series number. But first, check the temp sensor resistance at the clock connection, it should be 1.1 like the sensor itself. Read More...
Vu Mai June 07, 2012 for Model Number mgs5752bd Hi there I was able to look up the code and it shows 3d21 on a maytag oven. Can you please tell me if this is the right sensor to change?
1 Answer Hello Vu Mai. Yes, based on the error code you provided, the oven sensor 12001655 is shorted and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Ryan May 04, 2012 for Model Number cgr3740adw previously oven would preheat and never come back on, recently oven does not turn on at all. ignighter glows but no flame. stovetop works fine. I would like to buy a new temp sensor, but am worried if its something else i've wasted time and $, any help would be greatly appreciated.
1 Answer Ryan, You'd probably want to start at the oven igniter, They can glow, but not produce the proper voltage or amprage to the safety valve and it won't open. The igniter 12400035 needs to draw 3.2 to 3.6 amps or produce 3.2 to 3.6 VAC to the safety valve in order to open the bimetal switch in the valve, if the amps or volts are not in this range, the oven will not ignite or burn. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Kevin April 29, 2012 for Model Number MGR5729ADA When using the oven setting the preheat cycle will sometimes read desired setting, however the internal oven temp is not correct it is much lower than indicated by at least 150 deg's (verified by remote T-Stat) Is this a temp sensor?
1 Answer Hello Kevin. You can test the sensor 12001655. It should read around 1100 ohms at room temperature and around 1650 ohms at 350°. 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...
Willb March 22, 2012 for Model Number cwg3100aae I have replaced the control panel and ignitor on my maytag wall oven. Now the oven frequently cuts off and displays error message F2 if temp setting is above 395. From my research, I believe I need to replace the temp sensor but I am unsure of its location. I will have to access the part on my oven to determine whether I need a 3 or 6 inch but your diagram does not make it clear as to exactly where it is located. Please guide me.
1 Answer Hello Will, The temperature sensor 12001656 is at the top rear of the bake compartment. I would ohm it out with a test meter. It should read around 1100 ohms at 70°F. If the sensor tests good, check the sensor harness. 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...
Scott February 03, 2012 for Model Number PGR5710BDQ Hello, My Maytag oven PGR5710BDQ dosen't heat up right,sometimes it does and some don't. The top burners and broiler work fine. Would this be the over sensor? Also can you tell me the age of this? Thanks in advance
1 Answer Scott, I would not think the oven sensor, would be the issue, I would expect you to have an issue with an F2 or F3 error code in the clock display. The most likely issue would be the oven bake burner igniter 74007498. If it's weak, or theres a loose connection, that could cause an intermittent ignition or delayed ignition on the burner. There is a slight possibility of a sensor issue, if you recently had the oven in a "self clean"cycle, but very slight. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Keith January 31, 2012 for Model Number PGR5710BDW I just replaced the igniter in my maytag oven because it was not lighting. When I put it on bake it will not come on but works fine when I put on broil, do you think maybe temperature sensor?
1 Answer Hello Keith. Check and see if the igniter is glowing. If the igniter is not glowing, you will need to check and see if the control board WP5701M426-60 is sending power to the igniter in the bake mode. If not, you will need to replace the control board. 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...
Mj January 14, 2012 for Model Number JGS8860BDP Having the following problems with the oven of our Jenn Air range (JGS8860BDP): When I select Bake, the oven does not start up-- no ignitor element glowing red and no flames. On the control panel, it registers as Preheating and shows 100 degrees but of course never goes above that because it is not heating up. When I start Convect Bake, the ignitor element glows red and the flame comes on like normal, but only for about 3-4 minutes and then the flame goes out and it stops heating up before reaching the selected temperature. When I select Broil, it works fine-- ignitor glows red, flame comes on, and it does not go out. Surface burners work fine. Trying to determine whether the problem is with the temperature sensor, the ignitor element, or the control panel. Which part do you think is causing the problem and/or what order do you think we should test these three parts? We already have a spare control panel we could try, but don't mind spending $25 for a new tempature sensor if you think that is worth a try first.
1 Answer MJ, I wouldn't start with the oven temp sensor, Since you didn't mention any error codes in the display and the other cycles you mentioned seem to work properly. At this point, I would concentrate on a weak or faulty bake burner igniter or oven safety valve,74007498 W10130932. The igniter should draw 3.2 to 3.6 amps when glowing or produce 3.2 to 3.6 VAC at the wires on the terminals on the safety valve. Any readings below the 3.2 or a prolonged period to achieve that reading would indicate a weak igniter. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
