Kevin Newland October 07, 2012 for Model Number SF368LEPQ I need to order the parts to convert this range from lp back to natural. Could you give me a list of all the parts that need to be changed over.
1 Answer Hi Kevin, I have listed below the top burner orifices needed for Natural Gas. The oven orifices should be adjustable. Thanks! - WP8273064 Left Front - WP8273065 Left Rear - WP8273066 Right Front - WP8273067 Right Rear Read More...
Bonnie A August 31, 2012 for Model Number MGR5750ADW My oven is slow to heat at first and it somtimes sounds as if air or a wind is blowing in it.
1 Answer Hello Bonnie. 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...
Carmelo August 03, 2012 for Model Number sf362lxss My oven top burners all work fine, but the over and broiler will not turn on. Two clicks then nothing. I checked ohms at the gas valve. I checked solenoids. I got 195 ohms at one end and zero at the other. Do you think its gas valve? Thank you very much.
1 Answer Hello Carmelo, I seriously doubt that it's the gas valve. There is a much higher probability of the issue being caused by a relay on the control board W10114384 for black. For white WPW10114383 or for bisque WPW10114385. Read More...
Gary August 01, 2012 for Model Number GFG474LVS1 Is there a lever on the gas valve to shut the gas off to the oven?
1 Answer Hello Gary. Yes, there is an on/off on the gas valve WPW10293048, but the manufacture suggest one to be installed int he supply line as well. Read More...
Daniel P. June 13, 2012 for Model Number WFG361LVS 0 When turn on my oven the flame get for 3 sec and inmediatly the flame out. The boiler is same but the flame keep on more time (1 min) I checked gas valve ohms on both terminal.(209 Ohms)
1 Answer Hello Daniel. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the gas valve WPW10293048 is bad on the unit and will need to be replaced. It sounds like the pressure regulator in the unit is not allowing the gas to flow properly into the unit. Make sure the gas coming to the unit is good, and the pressure coming to the valve is good on the unit. Read More...
David June 02, 2012 for Model Number Kenmore 66575022100 While in bake mode the oven will come to temp but then have trouble relighting to maintain temp. It will click and spark but not always relight. After a while it will work but often after numerous unsuccessful attempts. I have tested resistance at the gas valve and have about 230 for both bake and broil witch is normal i believe. I also have 9.3 volts DV from red to orange and orange to blue (bake/broil) . Where do I go next? It seems it is either the gas valve or the spark/burner assembly? Any suggestions?
1 Answer Hello David. It sounds like a grounding issue. You will need to replace the bake burner with the spark igniter 8190618. Read More...
Angela May 15, 2012 for Model Number SF315PEMQ1 My oven displays 350 degress at start, but it takes 10 to 15 minutes for it to preheat. The temperture is not hot, its warm. Whatever I set the temperature to it starts over counting down for pre-heating, then sometimes it takes a long time for me to hear the ignition, mostly when it is set at a high temperature. Sometimes I smell gas while it is trying to heat up. It took me 3 hours to bake a 9 inch pan of cornbread once. I played with the temperature control settings after trying to get the oven hot. Sometimes I here the flames come on, but most of the time not. Why does it do that? I have also changed the calibration setting on the clock. It's up to 30 level on the display panel.
1 Answer Hello Angela, The problem you are describing sounds like a weak ignitor W10918546. You should also inspect the burner 98004314 as they give a lot of problems when they get old, corroded, and rusty. Read More...
John May 01, 2012 for Model Number gs563lxss1 whirlpool What is the safety valve for my gas oven range?
1 Answer Hello John! According to your appliance model number the safety gas valve is only available with the regulator part number WPW10293048. Thanks! Read More...
Db/88 April 22, 2012 for Model Number gs445lems2 When testing with my meter, I jumped across the blue and orange wire with the meter to check for voltage and it lit. Then I disconnected the meter, tried again, and it would not light. Once again, I reconnected the OHM meter and it lit. Does that mean the gas valve is bad?
1 Answer Hello DB, If the valve opens with the additional resistance of a test meter across it, the valve is bad and should be replaced for safe operation. Read More...
Mike February 28, 2012 for Model Number I HAVE A WHIRLPOOL gs445Lems 2 my oven stopned suddenly. when i try to turn it on , i can hear 2 clicks and that's it, no spark just 2 clicks; the broil doesn't make any sound at all.it is the gas valve or the spark module. there is a little gas release while clicking.thanks for the help!!!
1 Answer Mike, Based on your post, it sounds like an issue in the gas valve WPW10293048, but here are the checks you should make to varify, " First thing, check and make sure the power cord is attached to a properly polarized and grounded 120 VAC outlet. A proper ground is very important for the range to operate properly. Then you'll need to make several tests at the gas distribution valve. You'll need a multi meter to test voltage and resistances. At the valve body terminals, with the wires labeled and remove from the middle terminal to each of the outer terminals, you should read 215 ohms resistance. With the wires reconnected, when you select the bake cycle, you should have a reading of 8 to 18 VDC across the red and orange wires. When you make a broil selection you should have the same 8 to 18 VDC,across the orange and blue wires. If all checks are proper(within 10%) repalce the oven bake burner and or igniter." Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
