The Oven Ignitor is an OEM replacement part for LG ovens. It is a critical component responsible for igniting the gas burners or heating elements within the oven, allowing it to reach and maintain the desired cooking temperatures.

Symptoms of a bad oven ignitor include:

• Failure of the oven to ignite or heat up properly
• Intermittent or delayed ignition issues
• Clicking or sparking noises from the ignitor area

Causes of an oven ignitor failure can range from general wear and tear over time, to electrical or mechanical malfunctions, to obstructions or buildup preventing proper ignition.
 
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

The Thermistor is an OEM replacement part for LG gas ranges. It serves as a highly sensitive temperature sensor mounted inside the oven cavity. 

Symptoms of a bad thermistor include:  

• Inability to select certain cooking modes like bake or convection that involve temperature control
• Fluctuating or inaccurate temperature readouts on oven displays
• Irregular cooking outcomes like hot/cold spots inside the oven
• Repeated error codes regarding temperature sensing issues

Causes can be attributed to prolonged exposures to heat and intermittent combustion byproducts inside the oven. Over a decade of use, these conditions may degrade the thermal and electrical properties of sensor components. 

This genuine LG replacement thermistor installs effortlessly. Installing a new thermistor restores temperature monitoring required for reliable gas oven performance. 

The Magnetron Thermostat is an OEM part for LG microwaves and built-in ranges. Its primary function is to monitor the temperature and ensure that it remains within a safe operating range. If the temperature exceeds the preset limit, the thermostat will interrupt the power supply to the magnetron, preventing overheating and potential damage.

Causes of a faulty magnetron thermostat can include electrical malfunctions, component failures, or physical damage. These factors can result in issues such as erratic heating, microwave not heating properly, or the appliance shutting off unexpectedly.

Symptoms of a bad magnetron thermostat may include:

• Microwave not heating food evenly or at all
• Inconsistent or weak heating performance
• Microwave shutting off or displaying error codes related to temperature issues

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

This rotary switch mounts behind the control knob and reads your selections on the user interface. Replacing a worn switch restores accurate, reliable knob response so the appliance recognizes the chosen setting and relays it to the control board.

• Detects the position of the selector knob and sends the appropriate signals to the main control
• Enables choosing programs/settings using the front knob
• Failure may cause unresponsive or erratic selection, settings not changing when the knob turns, or a no-start if no selection is registered
• Typically located on the back of the control panel behind the knob

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove the knob and access the control panel to reach the switch
• Release locking tabs or screws; transfer the wire connector in the same orientation
• Align the shaft correctly with the knob and test operation before reassembly

This rotary switch sits behind the control knob and selects your appliance's settings. It directs power to the chosen function so the unit responds when you turn the knob, helping restore reliable, precise control. What it does

• Selects operating modes or speeds as you turn the control knob
• Routes electrical power to the correct circuit for the chosen setting
• Common failure signs: no response, only one setting works, intermittent operation, or the knob turns without detents/feels loose

• 1 rotary switch

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow any hot components to cool
• Photograph or tag each wire on the old switch; move wires one at a time to matching terminals
• Reuse mounting hardware as needed and align the shaft with the knob's flat
• Inspect connectors for heat damage; replace any compromised terminals to ensure a secure fit

The Motor, AC Fan is an OEM part for LG ovens. This fan motor is responsible for circulating air within the oven cavity, ensuring even heat distribution for consistent cooking and baking results. It helps maintain the oven’s temperature by moving hot air around, which is especially important for convection ovens.

Over time, the fan motor can wear out or become faulty due to continuous use, exposure to high temperatures, or electrical issues. When the fan motor fails, it can lead to uneven cooking and potential overheating of the oven.

Symptoms of a bad oven motor, AC fan include:

• Uneven cooking or baking results
• Unusual noises coming from the oven during operation
• The oven taking longer to preheat
• The fan not spinning or running intermittently
• Error codes related to fan or airflow issues

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

The PCB Supporter is an OEM part for LG ranges and cooktops. It securely mounts and positions the printed circuit board controlling cooking functions.

Causes of a bad PCB Supporter can include cracking or breaking of mounting clips over time due to normal range vibrations and use.  

Symptoms of a bad PCB Supporter include:

• The control board detaching during use
• Intermittent power to heating elements or displays
• Error messages regarding electrical component issues

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

The Spring is an OEM replacement part for LG ranges. Located within the oven door mechanism, this coiled metal spring helps counterbalance the weight of the door for smooth opening and closing. 

Causes of a bad spring can include fatigue from repeated compression cycles over several years, as well as stretching or damage from forced closure of an overloaded door. 

Symptoms of a bad spring include:

• Difficulty lifting or closing the oven door
• Sagging or misaligned door that doesn't stay shut  
• Loud squeaking or rubbing noises during use
• Broken, loose, or stretched coils losing tension  

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears Kenmore ranges and select GE models.

The Encoder Board is an OEM part for LG ovens. This board is responsible for interpreting the inputs from the control knobs and buttons on the oven's control panel. It sends these signals to the main control board, which then adjusts the oven settings accordingly, such as temperature and cooking mode.

Causes of a bad encoder board can include electrical surges, wear and tear from frequent use, or physical damage to the board's components. A malfunctioning encoder board can disrupt the communication between the user interface and the oven's control system.

Symptoms of a bad encoder board include:

• Unresponsive control knobs or buttons
• Incorrect oven temperature settings
• Oven not starting or turning off unexpectedly
• Error codes displayed on the control panel

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.
