Oven won't light even with glowing igniter? Safety valve controls gas flow to burner. Moderately easy repair with gas line disconnect required.
My tenant thought that the oven safety valve was bad, but after some research, I found that the transfer of heat from the igniter had to be sufficient enough to cause the valve to open.Your agent confirmed this and reassured me that even if the igniter was glowing, there was a 99% chance that it wasn't getting hot enough. I ordered the igniter, and also the safety valve just in case, as we were going to be fixing this on Christmas eve, so the oven could be used for Christmas dinner. Your agent... Read more

This is a gas safety valve that controls the flow of gas to the oven burner. It works in conjunction with the oven igniter - when the igniter reaches the proper temperature, the safety valve opens to allow gas to flow and ignite. Replace this valve if your oven does not heat, the igniter glows but gas never flows to the burner, or you smell gas when the oven is turned off.
Replaced the old valve with a new one from AppliancePartsPros.com. I watched one of the YouTube videos to get an idea of what the process would entail. I gathered the tools I would require, plus a work light. The repair/replacement went pretty good. One thing the video I watched didn't cover was adjusting the valve for a propane system. I compared my old valve to the new one and saw that I would have to screw down the oven gas outlet until it "bottomed out". Read more
Burner won't light or has no gas flow? This top burner valve controls gas to individual burners. Moderate DIY repair with basic tools needed.
Bought a Thermador PRSE48" dual fuel range from Craigslist really cheap because it didn't work. Did a little research and decided to overhaul most of the top (gas) end. For what I paid for it it was worth it and I'd have a good stove with new components. Replaced the griddle thermostat, ignition micro switches, ignition re-igniter box, installed fixing kit with 2 new potentiometers, both solenoids, and gas regulator. Had to replace 2 gas lines, all 4 jets, and one brass nut that were... Read more

APP Tech & Sales staff helped me diagnose the problem, we agreed that it was "most likely" the Safety Valve. It arrived the next day and I just installed it.BINGO! Just in time.My reward is my wife's awesome Christmas cookies. It was reassuring to know that I could return the part if it didn't solve the problem especially since I had already wasted money on a misdiagnosed part from another supplier that doesn't accept returns. I'm not too handy and you have to take the door off and a bunch of... Read more
Replace a gas range burner valve that's broken, stuck open, or causing hard-to-adjust flames. Moderate DIY repair requires raising the stovetop.
After turning off the gas and unplugging the electricity, I removed all the burners from the stove top using a 3/16" hex socket. Then used a 1/4" socket to removed two or three screws under each burner which hold the burner base to the bottom of the top panel. Then pulled all the knobs and removed the front panel which was held in by two Phillips screws accessible from underneath the panel. It helps to open the oven door to get at these screws. With the knob panel gone, I removed two screws... Read more

Oven won't heat or ignite? A faulty gas control valve prevents gas flow to the burner. Moderate DIY repair restores reliable baking in 1-2 hours.
I found I could "rap" on my broiler/oven control valve and the oven would light, so I ordered a new control valve. Installing valve was not difficult except for having to lay on the floor and work in a small space. After installation, the oven lit only ONE time...and the boiler/oven problem was unchanged....broiler would light, but not oven. (Both incandescent pilots would glow brightly, so I did not suspect the igniter/pilot.) A friend suggested I swap ignitors anyway...and indeed, the... Read more
