General Electric Range bottom burner in the oven does not heat

Its your oven igniter that's bad.

The oven igniter connections are underneath the oven. To get access to the oven igniter glow bar electrical connector, I take out the bottom storage drawer completely then get a flashlight or floodlight to see under there, and then I can see the oven igniter glow bar connector.

Its easy to replace, just take the bottom oven panel from inside your oven off, then you remove the flame spreader metal shield, then you will see the oven igniter mounted on your burner tube, just remove the oven igniter off from your burner tube and install the new one.

Unplug your range first before changing it.

You will have to check that the switch is is working ok , with a vault meter check for voltage at the burner , if none check at the switch and so forth back to the wall switch, if there is vaults at the burner it is faulty .

Possible that the insulation of the heat was not protected well or that there is a misalignment of the burner in the oven /burner.
Please check carefully to ensure the fittings are in place and not heating the oven parts..

Hello,Please use the chart to determine which stove you have. You will have to look at the model number. The first 3 numbers will be the series on the chart.

If you have power to the stove as in the oven light works and the clock works but the burners and oven will not work you only have 120 volts coming to the stove. The stove requires 240 volts for the burners and oven to work. Check the service panel for a blown fuse. There will be 2 fuses in the fuse holder. One of them is blown. If that is not the case then one of the wires has come loose either in the service panel or in the outlet behind the stove. Use a multimeter to check the input voltage at the outlet.

Top burners are working, broiler is working, bottom oven burners dont ignite and dont heat the oven? What can we do?

Could you find the completer mode number because the number listed above your post is for a gas oven.
Look at following areas for the model number

• Under Right Front Burner
• Under Left Top Burner Front Or Rear
• Under Main Top Left, Rear Or Center Front
• Under Left Rear Or Right Front Element
• On Nameplate Inside Burner Box
• On Front On Burner Box Bottom
• On Nameplate On Oven Door Liner
• On Main Front Behind Oven Or Compartment Door
• On Front, Center Bottom Of Burner Box
• On Thermostat Cover Under Main Top
