6Range/Stove/Oven Igniter

Common Solution
Repair Instructions:

If the gas doesn't ignite quickly, it can build up and cause a small 'boom' noise in the oven or a 'whoosh' noise on the burner. A broken igniter might be the reason for the gas not igniting quickly. To see if the igniter is broken, watch the igniter when the oven is on. If the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without igniting the gas flame, it means the igniter is too weak to open the valve. If the igniter is weak, you should replace it. If the igniter doesn't glow at all, use a multimeter, a tool that checks if electricity can flow through something, to test the igniter for continuity. If the igniter doesn't have continuity, you should replace it.
