our oven would not heat up
My husband pulled out the stove turned the gas off then he pulled out the part and replaced igniter....it took only about 20 min to do this job it was very easy and prior to us doing ourselves i called a well known company that does home repairs, I also called a few smaller businesses and to replace this part was anywhere from $175- 250 if not more. we are very very happy with our decision to replace the part ourselves unstead of spending extra money we didnt have .

The igniter would turn orange but wouldn't fire up, so the oven wouldn't heat up.
I just unscrewed the old one out, which was 2 screws and screwed this one in. But the thing that was best of all was how fast the part came in. It literally came the next day.

The (relatively new) gas oven would not light...oddly enough after a power outage. The recommended typical troubleshooting experience was that if the oven will not light: replace the igniter, even if it appears to be working fine.
I had already removed the 2 plates in the bottom of the oven to take an initial look. After not finding anything obvious, and searching on line for advice, I ordered the igniter. After the igniter arrived it was a matter of removing 2 screws, pulling out the lower drawer to gain access to the igniter disconnect, and done.
thanks for getting the correct part to me so quickly. Also the diagram and part number search was right on the money!

Oven would not heat.
Installing the part was really easy. I first turned the gas off, simply remove two screws tht hold the igniter in place. I then remove four screws from the back panel and disconnected the part. The feedback from other users on your site made me realize how easy it was. It took less than thirty minutes.

Gas Oven, started to Preheat then quit. Then would not even light
It is very simple to do. We called a repair man we normally use, but he does not do gas appliances. So started to research. I removed the bottom drawer, looked at the connection on the wires hanging down. Opened the oven removed the racks. On the bottom plate, loosened two screws and slid the bottom toward the front and removed it. Then removed two philips screws and removed the heat deflection plate, it slides forward and pulled up from the back. Then there it was- the igniter. I looked at it then looked at the connection behind the drawer. Went to PartSelect.com, found the part using the model number and used the parts diagram found the igniter and the picture matched what I had. I ordered the part, placed all parts back in place until part arrived. After part arrived, shut off breaker to oven removed all parts again disconnected the wire connection behind the drawer. Then on the side of the igniter, I used a nut driver, removed two bolts and took out the igniter. Matched it to the new one, including the power connection. Placed new one in and reversed the order. Turned on breaker, Pre Heated oven, been in service since. Ordered part before 3 on Wed, received early on Friday. Stopped home during lunch Friday and put it in place. 15 minutes and DONE Oven worked and fresh baked cookies when I got home! Thanks PartSelect.com!

Had to replace ignitor
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Replacing it was just as simple,only in reverse. The only tip I have that I should mention,is to UNPLUG the appliance first,as 110volts tingle your fingers!

Preheated the oven and after 30 minutes the temp did not change on the display i opened the oven and it was still cold, not warm at all. I cancelled everything and tried again but it didn't work. Which part do you think is best for me? Thank you
For model number wfg505m0bw0
Hi Mary,
Thank you for your question. If the oven is not heating correctly, then the issue is likely with the oven sensor, sometimes called the oven thermostat, and you will need to check it with a multimeter. When testing the sensor with a multimeter, the sensor should be tested at room temperature. You will need to measure the resistance between the two prongs at the end of the sensor connector. Replace the oven sensor if the reading is less than 900 Ohms or more than 1200 Ohms. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Is the part that I am going to order going to fit my model? I had ordered an oven igniter from a different company, and the one they sent was not the one they had in the picture. It did not come with the plug in adapter. I just want to make sure before I order it, thanks
For model number SF315PEPQ1
Hello Rene, Thank you for the question. Yes, the PS11770066 is the correct igniter for the model number provided. This flat style gas oven igniter has ceramic housing and comes with a connector. Good luck with the repair!

Does this part glow the whole time the oven is being used?
For model number WFG320M0BS0
Hello Gefro, Thank you for the question.The oven igniter will stay on continuously while the burner is operating. The igniter will turn off once the oven reaches the set temperature and then it will come back on and stay on again when needed to ignite the burner to maintain the oven set temperature. Hope this helps!

My oven will not lite. It seems as if its not getting any gas from the gas line. The igniter glows very bright though. What should I check first?
For model number FGP305KW2
Hello Raymond, Thank you for the question. First I would say test your igniters with a multi meter to see if they are working correctly or not. They should be reading between 0 - 1100 ohms to be working correctly. They can glow but not be strong enough to open the valve. Hope this helps!

The oven igniter was replaced by local technician. Oven lights only at 350-375 and then turns off when oven reaches that temperature. If i turn the oven control to a lower temperature, it goes out. I cannot cook that way. What needs to be done?

My Whirlpool gas stove burners work and light but when turning on the oven it lights but doesn't heat properly the temp does not change but when opening the oven it has little to no heat not enough to cook. What could the problem be?
For model number WFG320M0BW
Hello Brittany, Thank you for the question. We suggest testing the Oven Sensor. This oven temperature sensor, for ranges, works together with the oven control board to measure and regulate the oven temperature. Testing the temperature sensor probe on your oven is easy. With the sensor at room temperature, measure the resistance between the two prongs at the end of the sensor connector. The resistance of the sensor should read approximately 1080 – 1090 ohms at room temperature. We hope this helps!
Try to start oven, nothing. Igniter does not glow. Igniter or temp sensor?
For model number WFG320M0BB
Hello John, Thank you for the question. We suggest testing the Igniter. On a good igniter, there should be between 40 & 400 OHMS. A bad igniter will show no resistance or continuity.
