Range Bake Igniter WP9758079

Replaced igniter and also DSI/direct spark igniter did not fix problem. Called out repairman turned out to be bad gas valve. Replaced that part , now stove works fine.

Replaced igniter

I was able to perform this repair without removing the oven door. Removed cooking racks (2) Removed oven bottom (2 screws), removed flame spreader (2 screws). removed igniter (2 screws - used a 5/16 hex socket wrench). On this model range the lower screw on the igniter is on an angle (about 45 degrees) and very close to the heat reflector pan; patience and perseverance was required to remove it. - do not know if there is a special tool that would help making removal of this screw easier. If it wasn't for this one screw, the repair should take about 15-20 minutes. Replacement of the igniter solved the ignition problem.

Removed bottom panel. Unscrewed igniter. Replaced igniter. Reinstalled panel. Started oven before replacing panel. Easy install.

Bought new igniter.
Pulled stove from wall and turned off gas and disconnected power cord.
Removed oven racks.
Removed oven floor.
Removed heat shield/dissipater thing.
Removed 2 screws holding igniter to gas burner tube.
Disconnected the wire (this was harder than expected because igniter had only a few inches slack in the wires), took off back to try to find better access to wires, no help there, door was not easily removable so difficult to reach in with 2 hands to pull wires apart, eventually I got it.
Connected new wires.
Replaced igniter to feeder tube with 2 screws.
Plugged back in, turned gas back on and tested.
Reassembled heat shield thing, oven floor, racks.
Done.

Remove;
Bottom drawer- pull open and lift up slightly when fully open then pull the drawer the rest of the way out.
Unplug ignitor terminal- there is a small tang inside the terminal end that needed pressed out of the small hole of the ignitor, with a pick.
Oven racks.
Oven bottom- 2 long phillips screws at the back. lift the back up 1st then the front comes up and out.
Burner diffuser- 2 small phlilips at front (they only prevent the diffuser from sliding, they don't screw into anything). slide diffuser forward out of the notch then lift the front up. pull rear tabs out of the notches to completely remove.
Ignitor- two 8mm (5/16) bolts holding ignitor to burner. pull ignitor out of guide holes.
Reverse to install new ignitor.

Just took the bottom cover off the bottom of the stove, pulled the old igniter and put the new one on.

This did not solve my problem.
What do I need to do next?

Initially called repairman to come diagnose problem. He determined it was the bake ignitor AFTER 15 MIN. I authorized the repair of $300 but after waiting a week, the part that arrived was wrong. He ordered the broiler ignitor and state the new part would be another week out. We mutually agreed this repair wasn't going to happen anymore. ZERO CHARGE.
I then began a parts search on my own and found it here at PartSelect for @ $50. I also needed a freezer shelf for another appliance. Got both parts for $120 including shipping. They arrived in 4 days.
The repair was pretty simple.
Open oven door. Open hinge clips on door with small flat screwdriver. Remove door in upward motion. Remove wire racks. Using Cordless drill remove fine thread screws at rear bottom oven tray. Remove heat shield by pulling back towards you while looking down where it attaches and remove from slots. There are 2 screws here. The screws are nearly impossible to take out because of the heat they have encountered. No need to bother with them. Just tug/pullout of designated slots and lift up and out. Bake ignitor will be mounted to the flame tube. Use a small towel to lay in the bottom to prevent from losing the small bolts used to attach to flame tube. Remove with small ratchet. Remove and unplug ignitor. Careful not to let wire fall down the hole. Watch when replacing to insert into the not so visible guide. Reassemble in reverse order.
I think this took me about 30 minutes to complete and the oven seems to be working just fine now. Good Luck! Hope this helps. And I saved @ $250.

As the 2 screws in the front of the flame spreader didn't screw into anything , and made getting the flame spreader very difficult to remove, once I got the flame spreader out , I did cut off the screws so future install & removal would be easy. I had to hacksaw the screws off , as the screws are otherwise impossible to remove. The screws were damaging the oven metal sheet work during first removal ! Otherwise the new bake ignitor install would have been a very quick 20 minutes. Also I watched u-tube bake ignitor install & oven door remove videos, which were extremely helpful.

Removed the bottom pan and heat shield plate, removed the drawer to get to the igniter disconnect the one wire from it and removed it and just repeated the same process backwards to put the new one in. All under 15 mins
