Gas oven not getting hot - glow bar works but no
This happens when an oven igniter
(glow bar) is bad. The igniter
must draw enough amps to turn on the gas to ignite the flame. If you have a square shaped igniter use this part#5303935066 If your have a round shaped igniter use part#wb2x9154. These igniter
will pretty much work universally for most gas ranges or ovens.
- Remove the racks
- Unplug unit
- Take out the screw holding the bottom pan
- Remove screws holding manifold where igniter is attached
- Remove manifold cut wires about 2in link from igniter and clean leads.
- Unscrew and remove igniter
- Replace Igniter with new one and fasten onto manifold
- Clean wires and screw on ceramic nuts to wires
- Tuck wires back and Reinstall all components
Test your new igniter. You might notice it taking a little longer to light up but that is okay.
Please let me know if this was helpful by rating me a 4.
Thanks so much have a great weekend.
How do I unlock the
Hello there:
This is a fairly common issue with ovens like these
You will need to unplug the oven from the wall or if it is hard wired find the breaker that feeds it and trip it now you will have to wait for 1 hour to allow the ovens internal reset feature to reset the oven controle panel now after is up AND NOT BEFORE plug in the oven AND YOU MAY HEAR A AUDIABLE BUZZ OR CLICK WITH IN ABOUT 5 MIN if so simply press the cancel button or if you have a reset button on it press it and now you will be able to resume what you were doing ok>
Hope this is very helpful for you

Gas range doesn't work and sets F1 code. What is
Here is some wisdom for understanding F1 fault codes.
In some models, there are subcodes that make diagnosis even easier.
Here's a simple explanation of what's going on and how to troubleshoot:
The F1 code indicates that:
a. The electronic range control (ERC) is sensing heat in the oven when in a time-of-day (i.e., not cooking) mode.
b. The ERC is receiving information to run multiple heat functions simultaneously.
Although different components (depending upon the model) could generate the code, simple and straightforward testing using your ohm meter is all you gotta do to test for it.
1. Check the oven temperature sensor. The oven sensor has to be within spec or it will cause the F1 code.
As an example of being out-of-spec, the ERC will generate an F1 fault code when the sensor shows 1650 ohms during a time-of-day mode.
This is equivalent to 350°F in the oven.
The resistance isn't high enough to generate an F2 code (runaway temp) or an F3 or F4 code (shorted/open sensor circuit).
The ERC monitors the sensor circuit after a heat cycle and expects the resistance to drop back to 1050-1100 ohms.
The fault code is generated when this doesn't happen. Checking the sensor circuit means also checking the harness,
harness connections and the sensor itself.
2. If the oven sensor circuit checks okay, then turn your inquisitive eyeballs to the touchpad.
If the range has a separate touchpad/keyboard, the keypad may have moisture that is shorting several circuits simultaneously.
If the F1 code is given immediately (instead of during or after a heat cycle),
remove the ribbon connector from the touchpad to the ERC after clearing the F1 code. If the F1 code does not return in five minutes,
then cast a suspicious gaze upon the touchpad/keyboard. Shorts may be caused by using an ammonia-based glass cleaner.
The touchpad surface will absorb ammonia-based cleaners that are sprayed directly on the glass surface. When heat is applied,
the surface material can break down causing shorts.
If you're gonna use ammonia-based cleaners on your control panel, then you should spray it on the rag and then wipe the touchpanel
-don't spray directly onto the surface of the touchpad.
3. On Amana ranges with a rotary temperature dial, be sure that the knob is in the OFF position when performing tests.
4. If these tests all check good, then replace the ERC.

Vent below clock puts out alot of heat
Hi,
That is the oven vent and it will throw alot of heat when the oven is on... that is very normal operation...the oven needs to be vented to for various reasons...
This can be a great benefit in the winter time but is very uncomfortable in the summer...so limit the summer use and use it like crazy in the winter...

Hi, Although some issues with Frigidaire gas ranges may be cause for a
service call, you should try to first determine if the problem can be
easily resolved. Some basic Frigidaire gas range troubleshooting can
often solve simple problems or give you an indication of what could be
causing the malfunction. Although different models of gas ranges from
Frigidaire may vary, you can still perform these basic troubleshooting
techniques.
Set the clock of your Frigidaire gas range. The gas range will not turn
on unless the time is initially set. To set, select the "Clock" dial and
arrow through the numbers until the correct time is reached.
Check that all of the wires of the Frigidaire gas range are connected in
the rear of the appliance. If you notice a connection is loose, call
for service.
Clean the burner ports of your Frigidaire gas range. Clogged burner
ports will cause the burners to not ignite properly. Use mild soap and
hot water on each burner after removing the grates. For a large amount
of build up, oven cleaner can be applied. You can also run a self
cleaning cycle for the oven portion of the range if you run into any
problems. Choose the cycle from the digital menu on the Frigidaire gas
range.
Press the "Cancel" key on the Frigidaire gas range if an error message
appears on the digital screen. This should reset the controls and allow
you to enter a new operation.
Re-power the appliance if the digital display is stuck and
will not operate. Unplug the gas range, wait five minutes and then plug
it back in. Set the clock and then try to operate it again.
I came home and one or more of the electric stove
are the plastic knobs wore out,or been rmoved? They may have not been putback on in te correct position,which would leave them on when they tellyou that they are off. otherwise,look for a short in the wiing leading from the knobs to the affected burners. sometimes the wires under there melt ad cause shorts. remove the burners and then lift up the top of the stove to gain access.
