Sorry - this is not an answer but a question. Did you get your problem resolved. We just purchased a induction stove & oven and are having the same problem you described. Could you let me know what happened. Regards Bob

SOURCE: When I attempt to light

u can solve this problem by cleaning off the igniters. first of all unplug it from the power. Then take a small wire telcom pic tool to scrape the white and brown deposits from the sides of the igniters. You could probably use something else similiar to do the scraping. I noticed a shiny surface underneath. then go ahead and scrap it and brushed clean the mating surface where the spark travels. then vacuumed up the mess. your burners all worked great after this.

Turned off the power, removed the five knobs and corresponding rubber rings, and used a hair dryer on the five holes where the knobs were for about ten minutes in total. Hey presto, when I turned the power back on.

My Kenmore propane fueled gas oven gives off a powerful strong smell every time it is started. The burners on top do not. Is there any way I can correct this?

this is because the gas is on full before the oven lights
IT is an explosive situation and should be quickly corrected by an accredited gas fitter
the soot indicates an incorrect burn ratio and that will be the major part of the problem

My stove top works but oven and broiler will not heat

Good Afternoon friend, thanks for your post!

I see that your oven and broiler will not work on your Frigidaire range. It could be possible that your elements are bad or the thermostat may have shorted. I would suggest performing a reset on your range and you can do that by flipping the household circuit breaker off for roughly ten minutes. If that does not help resolve your issue you may need to have a professional technician come out to pinpoint the issue within your range. Best of luck! -Matt

How to remove oven thermostat on whirlpool stove

You don\'t need to remove the top. The thermostat is the long skinny tube in the oven that comes up to the railcock behind the oven control knob, remove the front panel to get the railcock/thermostat out which has the tube attached to it.
