Thank you so much sir. I finished this project on Mother's Day! The only thing I didn't see in your video, but was able to figure out I didn't have to cut the wires. I was able to remove the bottom drawer and fish the wire down. After that I plugged it in and I'm back in business. Thank you so much.
I learned a lot from this video, thanks! My oven wasn't heating, but saw the ignitor glowing red hot. Thought maybe my pilot light was out, but wasn't. Turns out my ignitor was hanging by just one screw, not making contact with gas jets to ignite a flame. Once I propped up ignitor with missing screw, oven lit up just fine. Now, time to make my pies....
If you have an igniter, you won't have a pilot light. The pilot light has its own set of problems, but those problems gow away once you have an igniter. The igniter likely has a current safety mechanism to verify that it is not shorting to the frame of the range and therefore causing a shock hazard. Nice find, and thanks for sharing something else to look out for.

Thanks Chris! I'll be working on my Samsung gas oven after this. Now I know what to look for. You gave me more info than the manufacturer, that's for sure.
Thank you! New Year's Eve 2020 goes out with a busted ignitor. Your video really helped calm me down and given me the confidence to be able to repair this.
Hey man I really appreciate all you did for this video and just so you know I got my oven up and running and you probably saved me a lot of money thank you sir and I’ll recommend you and your videos too everybody that needs a little help bro thanks
Hi, I hope this great channel still on and you can help me with my issue. My not so old but cheap range Amana all the time ignites oven to some 100 degrees and shuts it off. Non stop. What can I do, beside replacing this range. Thanks!!!
Hi Chris great video of a bad igniter. ❤ But I’ve replaced the igniter and the safety valve and still have nothing. No gas no glow from igniter. It’s dead
Great video! I watched this along with me wife and then proceeded to troubleshoot. It was the igniter. We ordered a replacement online for about 18 bucks and waited for its arrival. Taking the old one out was more of a pain than putting the new one in, surprisingly, but overall it went well. I will add that if you can get to the back of the stove then push all the wire that comes with the igniter out the back and then fish that down to where the gas connects. There you'll find a nice workable opening. Splice into the harness feed there with you're wire nuts and tape. Better those plastic nuts be out of the oven than in, as they and some corroded igniter wire were the issue to begin with.
No problem, glad I could help. Also, don't forget to keep an eye on my channel, we are working on a project that will make troubleshooting appliances easier for you DIYers. Thanks
Good job. Great presentation. Good camera use. And great orientation. My oven is an older model GE XL44. There is no electrical plug in. It just has a pilot lite. The pilot lite is lit, but the oven will not lite up. Please explain what might be the malfunction.
Thanks for the video, man. It's going to save me a lot of money. I do have a tip, though I'm not an appliance guy by any stretch of the imagination. I use this tip on all projects: once I have something torn apart for repair, I get in there with a ShopVac and a dry rag and clean everything I can. I'm most likely only going to open most things once or twice in their lifetime, so it's a good chance to clean everything. Again, thanks for the great video. You just got another subscriber.
You are welcome. Glad this video was able to help you and SAVE you some money. Also, don't forget to keep an eye on my channel, we are working on a project that will make troubleshooting appliances easier for you DIYers. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I have a problem with the top broiler element. It doesn't ignite but makes a popping thud sound when I release the gas knob. Still hoping to find a video on how to tackle the top element.
OMG!!!!! best video for this problem, you are a GURU my friend. all steps covered start to finish... my kind of guy... throw the BS away. Cheers from Canada
I really appreciate the kind words. Also, Thanks for taking the time to leave a positive and detailed comment. Canada? Are you guys getting a lot of snow this time of year? Thanks Again & Be Blessed
Good tip about the ignitors breaking. I was changing jets on a stove for a client a few years ago and managed to break the damn thing before I even saw where it was because for some reason it wasn't caged like this one is. Thanks for the great video.
This is great. My wife will appreciate getting back to baking and so will I. One question, what is the safety valve for? Could it be a problem with the safety valve that's preventing the ignitor? Are oven was working fine till we ran out of propane. Refilled our propane and the burners work fine but nothing from the oven. Anyway, thanks again.
Great informative video. Question: If all 4 burners up top are working correctly, and there is zero heat coming from the oven when turned on, is there any chance it could simply be a pilot light that needs to be relit? I was always under the impression that the stovetop and the oven had separate pilot lights, and that the oven had a constant low-level pilot light on. I don't smell any gas when the oven is turned on, even though it's not heating. I have a GE gas oven. Not sure the model, just a cheap one they put in apartments.
It sounds like the oven thermostat is not working (oven control thermostat). Are you sure you have a pilot light in the oven and not an electronic igniter?
Thanks, my igniter glows and gets hot but the gas doesn't come on. I'll replace the igniter soon and hope that's the problem. I cleaned the igniter with a brass brush and hoped that fixed it but it didn't.
So an righting this because i fix mine looked uo loads of vids none help me to het it to switch on teh bulb try set the BLOOMING CLOCK!!!!!! It worked for me this might save some1 3 hours😊
If the igniter glows brightly for about 2 minutes before the gas turns on, and the resulting gas flow is very weak (tiny flames, barely enough to stay lit) and the igniter never turns off, is the igniter faulty or could it also be the safety valve?
So my ignitor lights up but I get no flame. I do get gas to the top of my stove so it shouldn't be a gas problem. Can your ignitor glow but still be bad?
Yes, you need to test the ignitor for amperage (AMPS) to test it correctly you will need a multi-meter that has a clamp and Amps, most oven ignitors (that are working/good) should reach amps of 3.2 to 3.4. If it is less than that the gas valve will not open. Which means your stove will not light/flame. Hope that helps.
I experienced the same issue and I fixed. Though, now after a month of fixing the issue the stove lighter and oven stopped working. It appears that there is no electricity coming through. None of the stove igniters operating and the oven does not turn on. How do I troubleshoot? Thank you!
You will need a multimeter to check voltage coming in to the range. You MUST check voltage SAFELY for 110 - 120 voltage. It is highly unlikely that EVERYTHING on appliance stops working all at once. Definitely, start with voltage (ie receptacle, plug, breaker etc). Hope that helps. Thanks Again
i got a tappan 110 series and my over just stop working but the burner still works i have had this stove when i just bought my housr wish was in 1993 so i have had the stove for along time so what do you think it might be..
If this is a gas stove (you didn't say), just because the igniter is lighting doesn't mean it is good. Igniters are the most common failure when gas ovens do not heat. If you have a multimeter you will need to test the igniter or if the igniter is weak, replace the igniter. Don't forget, SAFETY FIRST!! Always unplug the appliance and in this case turn off the gas as well. Hope that helps. Merry Christmas & Be Blessed
My breaker tripped only where my gas oven line is on. I tried to reset it but it just stays in the middle. To use the stove I have to light it with a lighter. The clock, fan and light doesn’t go on. It’s just the oven line cus everything around the oven works? What could this be. Thank you for your help and have a good day.
It sounds like you have a short circuit from your stove. I recommend unplugging the stove and try to reset the breaker. If it works, you need to have someone find the short circuit in your stove. Hope that helps. Thanks
Hi Cris! My problem is-I turned oven on to pre-heat. Went back to check it. Igniter was glowing, but the kitchen smelled like gas(BAD!), and oven wasnt hot. Had to open all the windows. Tried it days later and it worked fine! But, now it does it 50% of the time(not get hot+ kitchen reeks of gas). What do you think?
If you have a multi-meter I would check the igniter for correct amps, need to reach 2.8 or higher to open gas valve every time. Also, check oven burner tube for blockage (burner holes clogged) or damage to burner tube (sometimes they will have a larger dime size hole in the side). Lastly, if all the above checks out, change the igniter. Hope that helps. Thanks
Chris Stokes Thank you sir. Yes, I was thinking it must be the burner tube, since the gas valve seems to open, filling kitchen with gas. I didnt want to take it apart w/out knowing what to look for. I will let you know. Thanks again!
I Replaced My Igniter On A Kenmore About A Week Ago, Now It Won't Glow, But I Hear A Click, But No Glow, Put The Old One Back In Because It Did Light Up, But Nothing...What's The Next Step?
I would ensure that your oven thermostat is operating correctly. And test your igniters for ohms of resistance. Finally, ensure that you have correct voltage. Thanks
my oven ignite working but the flame not coming up .also if coming up when getting 350 F after turn off automatically didn't come flame back again and we will smell gas(My oven its kitchenaid)
You are getting gas on the top of the stove, right? Also, glowing bright to most people (if you are NOT an appliance tech) doesn't mean that the igniter is good. If you are getting/smelling gas when you turn the oven on, REPLACE the igniter. Also, check the burner tube for damage (large holes) and blockage. Hope that helps. Thanks
sometimes my oven works sometimes not, sometimes it will only get slighty warm and sometimes i smell gass. anyone know what my ovens issue sounds like is wrong with it?
I would recommend (SAFELY) checking your ovens burner tube. Sometimes that will have a small hole in them (other than the flame burner holes of course). If so, it will need to be replaced. DON"T FORGET TO TURN OFF THE GAS... FIRST!! Hope that helps. Thanks
OK - I have an oven with an electric igniter. Now when I turn the gas on for the oven - I am supposed to hear 2 pops in sequence (that is the igniter sparking), repeated a few times, and before that, I hear that gas going on. I will need to hear the poof after the sequence of these electrical pops - which is the deflagration of gas to its so-called blue flame. If I do not hear the poof - the igniter is likely faulty.
Well, not really. Is the igniter performing properly? If so, is there a hole in the tube? Is the tube blocked/obstructed (clean it)? Are you getting gas to the stove (check burners)? Are you getting gas to the oven? You will need to check the above areas first and then go from there. Hope that helps. Thanks
I don't see the point in using electric tape. The wire connectors are ceramic for a reason. I suppose it is fine if you leave the wires long enough to put through the hole and behind the heat shield, but it's unnecessary.
Good Video. I like how you mentioned the possibility of faulty diagnosis after ohming out the igniter. Watched a dozen or so videos without mention. I really appreciate true and helpful information from real life ACTUAL technicians. Thanks
Sir, the information in this video was well-presented. You are a respectable and qualified teacher.

So an righting this because i fix mine looked uo loads of vids none help me to het it to switch on teh bulb try set the BLOOMING CLOCK!!!!!! It worked for me this might save some1 3 hours😊
If the burner heat up but not right, is it both the igniter and burner?
Question, I have a Maytag propane oven, it comes on and ignites but shits off right away. I can't find anything to help with that
If the igniter glows brightly for about 2 minutes before the gas turns on, and the resulting gas flow is very weak (tiny flames, barely enough to stay lit) and the igniter never turns off, is the igniter faulty or could it also be the safety valve?

What if the oven and the boiler igniters are not getting red
I would ensure that your oven thermostat is operating correctly. And test your igniters for ohms of resistance. Finally, ensure that you have correct voltage.

Got a oven not working
mine glows real bright but never seems to light the burner.....any suggestions
You are getting gas on the top of the stove, right? Also, glowing bright to most people (if you are NOT an appliance tech) doesn't mean that the igniter is good. If you are getting/smelling gas when you turn the oven on, REPLACE the igniter. Also, check the burner tube for damage (large holes) and blockage.

Are you getting gas to the oven? You will need to check the above areas first and then go from there. Hope that helps. Thanks
You have an electric okay that's a no no no no I will use ceramic connectors not electrical tape
He clearly says AFTER he puts the wire nuts on then he uses electrical tape ( the part usually comes with ceramic nuts)
there is such a thing as high temp electrical tape
I don't see the point in using electric tape. The wire connectors are ceramic for a reason. I suppose it is fine if you leave the wires long enough to put through the hole and behind the heat shield, but it's unnecessary.
