Wow, you saved Thanksgiving! This showed exactly what I needed. I was able to eliminate the hassle of removing the ignitor bolts by disconnecting the burner tube. Just one screw in the front by the oven door and the whole works came right out.

You did a great job here and I haven't seen part 2 yet, but I just wanted to mention that when your reconnecting the new ignitor wires with the old connecters ,... you must use a special wire cap that is ceramic. A regular plastic wire cap could melt and catch fire. The ceramic ones are made for high heat.

Here's another big thanks for the great instructions! Saved me over $200 by doing it myself. As in many of the comments, it is much easier to remove the 2 screws holding the igniter onto the gas bar by removing the entire gas bar first. 2 screws below and one at the oven front holding it on. Then do the swap out on your counter. No one seems sure whether it's important to match up where the new leads go, or whether they're interchangeable. I kept it the same as the original one. One lead was a flat clip, and the other was a box clip. Job done in 35 minutes! Thanks Tomahawk!

Thanks for doing this! These kind of videos are what makes KZfaq an actual valuable resource.

Thank you for the video. We found the problem in our oven. It was the switch that was accidentally turned off while we were doing the cleaning! We got a hint from you video and found the little mistake. :) We were almost about to order a new igniter.

Thank you for your video. I watched videos parts 1 & 2 and was able to figure out the igniter needed to be replaced. I was able to replace the igniter using the steps in your videos.

Thank you Sonia Campos, I followed your instructions. My oven came right on. Thanks, I really appreciate the info!

I just noticed that my gas range wasn't heating. thanks for the video. it was as simple as pulling out the lower console and lighting the pilot.

This was a huge help. Thank you for taking the time to do this! John

Thank you for posting. Well done, especially considering you hold the camera yourself the entire time.

Thank you so much for your video. We had a F9 error on our LG double gas oven. I was glad I finally found your video because when I did a search for f9 error it did not address this situation at all. Your demonstration and explanation was exactly what was wrong. You saved the day - thank you!

My oven would only light sometimes or there would be a long delay when it did light. I replaced the igniter and it has lit right up four times in a row. Thank you for taking the time to post this video.

I have the same oven and same problem. Thanks for your insight and giving me confidence to fix myself.

This is a great video. It was exactly the same problem as my gas oven. It was easy to follow along and fix my oven. I had to order my part with Whirlpool. Once again good job Tomahawk DIY.

OMG! Thank you sooooo much for this! Mine ended up being that safety valve switch. My wife dropped a spatula behind the stove so I moved it out and the oven stopped working. I replaced the igniter and the gas valve switch. Ugh I knew it was something simple. You are a saint!

thank you for this great video!! My husband is NOT handy but your video saved us from having someone come in! Thank you and CHEERS

thank you so much for making this video. i haven't tried using my oven for 18 years! i'm finally going to try to fix it since it is my parents' oven.

Thank you so much for uploading the video! Wow, what a helpful tutorial!

I love this, I learn a lot things on fixing my things, as well as upgrade my knowledge about home appliances. I owed you an appreciation

Thanks man for the video! My wife told me that the oven wasn't heating and I'm thinking oh crap! But this may be my problem so I'm about to check it out now.

Perfect video! Very clear, and concise. That GE just happens to pretty much the same range/ oven as my Hotpoint, and I am having exactly this problem. The only difference between the 2 is the controll panel. Lol This helped know how to remove the igniter. Thank you!

GREAT VIDEO!! Now I can get back to baking for my kids and husband and not have to pay for some one to come out and charge me an arm and leg ^_^ Thanks your a life saver and saying what everything was while you were working helped me alot too.

thanks for uploading this very helpful video...my oven stopped heating a week ago

Hey Tom, I have the exact same Hotpoint model -- with the exact same problem (oven ignitor . . . broiler works). Thank you for your trouble-shooting. Way better than the GE manual and site! :)

Thank you! I fixed my oven and got out of fixing that faucet for another day.

Wow this video was a HUGE help! Especially since you have the exact same stove that I do! haha. I think this is my problem but MAN I don't know how to reassemble the wiring right there at the end of the video. I'll have to figure that out.

That was Awesome thanjs for being so detailed and step by step. You ROCK !!!!!!!!!

Thank you! My oven is now working because of this video.

Thank you for uploading this video you are real good teacher thank you so so much i will follow your instruction.

Thanx for posting it was very helpful every problem on that oven is what I am dealing with

Thanks tomahawk. Saved me some cash and I'm feeling more manly and adult ish!! Thanks man. Appreciate ya.

Thanks for your help. Boththe broiler and then the oven stopped working. The broiler igniter was bad. I also think that the gas buildup led to a shut down of the gas switch. I got the oven working by fliiping the switch and now I'm ordering the new igniter. Thanks again, this was empowering!

Thnx so much. very helpful.my problem was the "safety switch". u saved me at least 50bucks in home visit fees plus any other charges. its been 2 years since i used my stove and it was jus a lil switch.AMAZING!

Thank you! I watched your video, bought the heating element on Amazon. It took about an hour of labor (30 minutes to remove the 2 stupid bolts) but our oven is heating again! Thank you for your very clear and informative video.

At 5:36 you saved me soooooo much trouble! Went from using an electric oven to a gas oven, how was I supposed to know there's a switch down there?! Hahaha. Thank you so much!

Thank you for the great vid...i do have a question tho...when i press the PRE HEAT button does the broiler suppose to turn on also?

Thank you for uploading this video help me out a lot thanks again

Great how to video , Think my problem is my Gas Pressure Regulator . Thank you

GREAT DIRECTION VIDEO GOT GLOW BAR OUT MYSELF NO PROBLEMS...THANKS ROSE

Thanks this should really help. Mine just stopped working. Top burners are fine. Can't wait to fix it!

Thanks Tomahawk!My Whirlpool has been broke for months. Followed just what you did here and it was the bottom ignighter alright. Now off to the store in the morning to get the part.Thanks a lot and have a great day.

I would like to see how you removed the igniter as it seems impossible to get to.

Thanks bro! High quality video.

Great informative video. Both Broil and Bake igniters glow, but No gas. Would have loved a better view and explanation relating to the gas regulator adjustment.

Thanks for the instructions!

Thanu this tottaly helped me with my Hotpoint oven...spot on...the tpp broiler works well the bottom doesnt heat or anything. i though i would have needed a lighter but not for that. gas stove works well too. one day i cut on the oven and when the oven door closed it made a loud blow from inside which sounds like when you light the stove burner using a match...whcih should not be..so my thoughts were is was about to soon konk out.

Question was asked How do you get the two screws under the ignitor out!? My GE (Model JGBP30GEP1AD) had screws and not the bolts. Solution. That gas tube, simply comes out if you remove the screw located on the bracket (mark 3:43 in the video at the bottom of the screen you will see the head of that little bolt sticking out of the burner/tube)) attached to the front. In the back of the oven,(if you oven has the defuser plate then you will also have the bracket) just move the burner/ fuel tube to the side of the defuser bracket and lift up where you will find that the igniter will come up with burner/the fuel tube. Just make sure when you replace, that the fuel tube fits over the brass gas intake in the back of the broiler area. Gas naturally rises up through the burner tube, and if doesn't go into the tube, you could have a a major gas leak.

Great video !!... Great narration, nice work, Thanks !!...

Very Helpful , Thank You.

Thanks man, you helped alot!

Great Video...I am having a problem with the exact model you have in the video. The only difference is that neither broiler or oven won't ignite. Stove top works fine. What should I be focusing on?

U saved my thanksgiving

how did you get the bolts out from under the bar? would have liked seeing that!

th Thanks, its all about fixing the stove.

thanks very clear and useful.

I have a bottom broiler, and neither the oven nor the broiler is lighting. The stove burners work fine.

Thank you sir!

It would be a good idea to unplug the range, as I received a shock prying off the blade connection.

WHAT is THE RESISTANCE/OHMS RANGE ON the NEW and/or a GOOD IGNITER?

Great video. Everyone uses the warming drawer as a pan storage.🤣

thank you!!!

Thank you very much

How did you get the bolts for the igniter out? This is where I'm stuck.

for those of you who are having a difficult time removing the bolts on the igniter... Follow the gas tub down below (where the electrical connections are). Remove the two bolts on the back of the oven that holds the gas tube in place. Once these are gone go back inside the oven. There is a single tube near the front of the tube. Once these three screws (2 below and at the rear of the drawer area and one at the front of the gas tube inside the oven) are removed the entire gas tube with the igniter attached can be lifted up and out of the oven. Turn the tube over and the screws are easy to remove.

I have a kitchen Aid do you have video on this one??

Is there a pilot light in this oven too or is it just the ignitor device that makes it light?

Can you explain the kind of tape I will need to connect the wires of the new igniter?

Hi there. Have a GE Profile XL 44 that often i cannot get to heat much past 375/400. Ignitor goes on, burner burns blue. I noticed that when it gets to that high 300s low 400s range, the blue flame actually will at ties flicker or get smaller. Any tips?

A viewer asked: need help with oven burner not lighting igniter works fine, broiler works fine. oven burner wont light. Response: be certain that both ignitors work - in this oven there is one for the top (broiler) and one for the bottom (oven). If both are working, it may be an issue with the gas line to the oven burner or a problem with the controls or valve that supplies gas to the oven burner when you turn it on. Good luck!

I have a 20 year old GE Profile gas range. The burners work fine, the panel lights up when I turn the oven on,and the broiler works, but the oven doesn't heat. Given the age of the appliance, is it worth paying for a service call/parts/labor. Watching the video it may be the oven igniter.

Thank you for your video, the problem was exactly as you described. The repair was straight forward and saved me a service call.

It was a real pain. I used a socket without the handle attached and just twisted with my fingers. Not easy to do. I think I tried using a very small socket set and a very small pair of pliers before realizing I needed to do it with my fingers.

thanks this video was really helpful

thank you

Thanks alot

Have an older gas stove...it has no electric plug. Pilot in oven is lit, but oven does not heat...any suggestions?

ADDITION to this repair video... BEFORE removing ignitor ... attach a fish line or string to the ignitor wires before you attempt to pull wires up through oven floor. This important detail makes reassembly quite easy, as you then only have to attach contact wire of new ignitor to fish line/ string and pull new wire back through oven floor to reconnect to gas valve beneath.. Easy!!

Can I light it up in that small hole in the front before you took out the panel?

thanks!

My broil and bake do not ignite. What are the odds both broke at same time? The stove top works so must be both if items on broil and bake?

Thanks

Very nice...

Hey Tomahawk. Thanks for this very helpful video! You've perfectly diagnosed the problem. The switch next to the regulator (located at the back/bottom, behind the bottom drawer) somehow got flipped to the off position. When I tried to flip the switch back to the on position, it came off in my hand (didn't break, just came off in tact). So now the spring valve is shut, and I can't reconnect the switch to open it back up. Any suggestions?

Hi i have same stove. The oven bottom burner turns on but the top burner doesn’t just like yours top burner works and bottom doesn’t. Can you plz make a video on showing the igniter replacement on to p burner thank you.

Was the oven /stove unplugged or just turned off when u did this ???

This is helpful. Thank you. My oven (Amani ACF3375AW/PACF3375AW1)...the broiler seems to kick on, but the oven ignitor does not even get warm. Does this still troubleshoot as an ignitor issue to you? I would like to be certain (ish) before I buy the new part. Thank you.

I don't use the broiler. I wonder if I can just swap the broiler igniter with the oven igniter. Hmmm.

I replaced the oven igniter and the new one turns red. When I turn the oven on it lights but the flames coming out of the gas bar are at half or less normal. The oven is taking forever to heat up to a high temperature. Any advice. Is there anything inside the oven that would cause the gas going to the line to be reduced?

Good job

we have something like that but we have a big problem can you help us? tomhawk diy

My broiler works and the top burners work. The oven itself either does not light or comes on about half or less flame and heats up very slowly. I replaced the igniter and same thing. Its like the flame bar is only getting 1/3 or less the gas it needs when it eventually does open. Any suggestions?

THANK YOU!!!!!

got a new gas range kitchenaid#KSGB900ESS burners working but gas in oven wont ignite I can hear the igniter but no gas

I spilled my lasagna in my oven. I cleaned it up but it went down on the igniter. Did know. Did the trouble shout. And then used my steam cleaner on the igniter. It works and save me a lot of money. So always try to steam clean it to make sure there is nothing on it.

Hi, I’m having an issue with the oven heating. Both bake and broil igniters glow but there is no gas. If I start one of the burners on the top of the stove the oven will heat up instantly.. I thought It might have been the safety valve but it’s got me stumped

I was so excited to see the oven matched mine. I already knew the igniter was the problem from other videos. The problem I’m having is I don’t know how to get the screws holding it in place out. They are underneath and hard to access. You Didn’t Show Or Even Fully Explain How You Got Them Out. What Did the tool look like? How did you get underneath screws? How did you get the screws back in? Who puts screws underneath anyway? Poor design GE.

Ok... I'm in a bit of a thing I think. I cut the snap connector off too close to be able to splice it together with the cap. Is the other end that is connected to the oven a "hot" lead? If not, can I cut off that other end of the snap connector and use the cap to put the two wires together without that connector? Or should I find another matching connector and put my ignitor wire in through that and then snap it together as originally set up? If it IS a hot lead.. would unplugging the oven be sufficient to be able to cut that wire?

I have an XL44 self cleaning gas range model# RGB745WEA2WW and Seral# FV238702P my oven will not heat the broiler and the stove top work fine what is wrong and how can i fixit thank you.

If the igniter glows, but gas tube won't light, could it be it is not heating enough & needs a replacement?
