RGJ616GEH3 Hotpoint Wall Oven - Instructions

Removed 2 screws and unhooked the spring. then hooked the spring back up installed 2 screws and I was done. Very easy

Of all times, my oven quit working the Friday before Thanksgiving. Since this has happened in the past, we knew it was the igniter. After placing our order with Part Select on-line, it was promptly shipped the same day and received on Monday!! Since my husband has replaced this before, he knew to unhook the electric wires from the igniter and remove the old one. Once we received the new part on Monday, it only took a few minutes to hook the igniter back up to the electric wires, push the wires to the back of the oven out of the way of the flame, and I was back in business ready to start cooking for the holidays!! Barbara and Derrick at Part Select on-line were so very helpful since I was not able to locate the part here locally, and they really came to the rescue for me!! Thanks so much!!

Fairly easy to accomplish. First unplugged the oven from the power outlet, then removed the oven racks and the bottom pan which required a screw driver to remove the two screws in the front of the pan. Then, using a socket wrench, removed the nut which holds the thin metal deflector/reflector on top of the gas burner tube. Moved the broiler drawer forward to provide room to work. Using a Phillips screw driver, removed the two screws holding the igniter in place and removed the igniter after pulling the wire connectors from the power and gas hookups. Cut the old wires about three (3) inches from the connectors (the ones farthest from the igniter). Stripped the wires and connected them to the new igniter using the ceramic wire nuts provided. Screwed the igniter back into the retaining bracket and connected the spliced wires into their oven connectors. Plugged the oven into the power supply and turn the oven control to 300 degrees, waited 10 - 15 seconds and watched the igniter glow. Shortly thereafter the gas kicked on and the oven tube ignited. Turned off the oven, reinstalled the deflector/reflector, and reinstalled the oven bottom. Put the oven racks in and plugged the oven back in.
