The ignitor went out on one of the burners of the gas range

Remove the burner cover to reach the burner assembly. From the top of the cooktop you will see 2 screws holing the burner assembly. Using a T drive (6 point screwdriver)remove both screws and the burner assembly will come out of the cook top. Using a phillips head screw driver, remove the old ignitor from the burner assembly. Mine was galled up, so I had to use some penetrating oil and let it sit for a half hour. I then used a hammer and a phillips head screwdriver to tap the screw as I twisted to un-tightened the screw. Once it broke loose, I placed the new ignitor and reassembled the burner into the stove.

my knob broke

There is really nothing to replace a stove knob. What I was impressed with was the speed in which the knobs came to my house, the very next day from the day I ordered them.
Thanks a ton!

Range would not light.

First I removed the burner, two screws held it in place. The ignitor is attached to the burner with one screw remove the screw then remove the one wire connection. Reverse the steps to put back together. The whole job from start to finish takes about five minutes.

original knobs were broken. They are only plastic afterall and no did not hold on the stem to turn on and off without duct tape.

Simple. I went online, found the replacement part, ordered 5 new knobs. They came within 4 days and I put them on. Easy as can be. I saved this site so I can go back to it if I ever need to. Wonderful! Thank you..

Gas explosion due to bad Gas Pressure Regulator

First step is to turn gas off to cook top and also disconnect power to the unit. Than using a crescent wrench disconnect the gas line going to the unit from the Regulator. Than again using the crescent wrench disconnect the regulator from the bottom of the unit. Next remove the nipple that connects the gas line to the regulator from the old unit. Apply new pipe dope to the threads and screw it into the new one and tighten down. Next install the regulator to the unit and install the gas line to the regulator. once done with the install you can now plug the unit in and turn on the gas. You are now ready to use the cook top again

Broken knobs

We have had this appliance for 18 months. Within one month the first knob broke. A month later, the second knob broke. We have gently been using the remaining 2 knobs for 4 burner positions until recently when the other 2 broke. I am hoping these new knobs are made better then those that came with the appliance.
