Whirlpool 12400035 Flat Style Oven Igniter Kit OEM Part

Followed linked video instructions and replaced with new flat style Oven Igniter Kit. Some repair info background, while out shopping for a replacement oven ($1000 plus) a terrific salesman listened to the issue with my current oven and recalled his same issue and solution. I thanked him for his time and recommendation. I went home and searched "oven Ignitor" where I was led to this website. The video showed the same exact flat oven igniter and how easy it would be to replace it. I immediately ordered the part and put off my eagerness because I would have to wait until at least Monday to see if this would be a solution because I ordered the part at 5:50 pm on a Friday. I came home from walking my canine companion Saturday morning and much to my pleasant surprise there was a package for me in the lobby. I assumed it was from another order I placed because it would require a time-travel delivery system for it to be my oven igniter. Apparently they have time-travel technology here at appliancepartspros.com because it was the replacement oven igniter. It made it from Kentucky to Queens NY in less time than I can figure out with daylight savings and time zone math but is was crazy fast. So much so that I swore I'd write an actual review to praise these folks that actually care about customer service and customer satisfaction. As you know this kind of service is near impossible to find in this day and age. This was one of the best online repair, actually this is the best online repair experience ever. Thank you and please keep up the amazing work.

Simply removed the igniter, replaced it with the new one.

Replaced old igniter by disconnecting the connector plug at rear of the oven then pulled the wire through the insulation at the bottom of the oven. Reversed process to install the new igniter, which was an exact fit. Did not need to remove the back panel.

After 10 years of service our Magic Chef gas range suddenly stopped igniting the oven burner even though the broiler burner worked just fine. I assumed it was the igniter. But I pulled the lower plate put from the oven and could see the igniter was glowing. After digging around on the internet I found the forum here at APP and after reading through several threads I found it was possible for the igniter to be bad and still glow. Mine was glowing orange when it should have been almost white. That difference in heat corresponds to a difference in amp draw through the igniter and the oven's control board said that amp draw meant failed igniter. I bought the part from APP (best price I could find). 2 days later it showed up and after a few minutes - really took longer to clean inside and around the oven than the replacement - I was back in business. Really just an unplug, 2 screws and replug. Thanks APP

I replaced the igniter. Now instead of taking an hour and a half to preheat it now takes less than 10 minutes.
