Maytag Range CRG8600AAB Little to no heat when baking

The Flat Style Oven Igniter Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It is designed to ignite the gas in the oven burner, facilitating the start of the heating process. This igniter is crucial for ensuring your oven heats up quickly and efficiently, providing the necessary flame for cooking and baking.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Igniter include:

• The oven failing to heat up or taking a long time to reach the desired temperature.
• A noticeable gas smell when the oven is turned on, indicating the gas is not igniting.
• The igniter glowing without producing a flame, which can point to a lack of adequate temperature to ignite the gas.

Causes of a bad oven igniter can include the wear and breakdown of the igniter element over time, a faulty electrical connection, or a disruption in the gas supply.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Oven Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It measures the oven's internal temperature and sends this information to the control board to maintain the desired cooking temperature. 

Causes of a bad temperature sensor can include exposure to high temperatures over long periods, electrical issues such as short circuits, or physical damage due to impact or mishandling.

Symptoms of a bad temperature sensor include:

• Inaccurate temperature readings
• Oven not heating to the set temperature
• Oven overheating
• Error codes displayed on the oven control panel

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Note: For the long 6-inch sensor order 12001656.

This oven gas valve controls the flow of gas to the oven burner. When functioning properly, it allows the burner to ignite and maintain a steady flame for consistent preheating and baking performance.

• Opens and closes to supply gas to the oven burner as commanded by the control system
• Helps ensure gas only flows when ignition is called for
• Common symptoms include no heat/no flame, slow preheat, or temperature not reaching set point
• May also present as intermittent heat or a weak/irregular burner flame

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Verify igniter condition/current; a weak igniter can mimic a failed valve
• Transfer any required fittings or brackets from the original valve
• Use gas-rated thread sealant on threaded joints; leak-test all connections and run a test cycle to proper ignition
