Top 20 Maytag CWG3100A Gas Single Oven Questions & Answers

My gas oven heats very slowly and sporadically.

Good morning, your oven most likely has a weak igniter. That would keep the gas safety valve from opening properly. It will get close to the required amperage but valve will only flutter and not allow enough gas to ignite. Hope that helps.

How to change the light bulb in a maytag 8114P732-60 oven

Hi Mary. I had a bad bulb in my Maytag new from the factory. I also had a hard time getting the glass lense cover off, and didn't want to be too rough with it for fear of breaking it. But it WILL come off if you turn it hard enough. I've since seen suggestions about putting warm water on it to loosen it up. And another person wrote and said using an oil filter wrench on it worked like a charm. Good luck

I just turned on our pilotless oven and noticed the smell of gas. Turned it off naturally. The stove worked fine earlier in the day.

Hi, You could have a weak ignitor which can cause a smell of gas, I would have it checked unless you have a way to test for amperage. Test with amp probe should read 3.2 -3.6 amps if less than 3.0 replace ignitor. I hope this helps. Good Luck I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

Starters will not stop clicking

That is usually a sign that the spark module has gone out and needs replacing. This is only if the clicking continues after all the burners are in the off position If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jason_4570d45317834dd3

Oven light stays on constantly

you have a stuck light switch, either at the door or on the control panel. either will most likely need to remove the oven at least part way. then a test of the door switch will tell you if that is bad or not.

Stove top burners work but when the oven is turned

Hello,


The problem beleive it or not is that the bake igniter is weak ,and it is not drawing the proper amprage to open the gas valve.If you have a amp meter access the wires to the bake igniter(usually behind the storage drawer) and check for 3.3-3.6 amps when oven is set to bake by clamping the meter around ONE wire wire of igniter make sure only one wire,either one and not both.
if amp draw less than 3.3-3.6 amps replace bake igniter. I know it seems improbable that if the igniter comes on that it could be the problem.Professional appliance technicians who would charge a average of $250.00 to repair your oven,have found when the igniter comes on yet the oven won't heat that a weak igniter is the cause 100% of the time

You need to remove the door before you start dismantling the door. It is labor intensive and to hard to explain but here is a diagram that shows you the break down. Here is a video to point you in the general direction for the repair.

Oven sometimes doesn't stay up to temp

The temp is controlled by electronics that monitor the oven sensor.
The sensor should ohm out at 1100 ohms.
If it is shirted to frame or open the open temp would not do right and the
oven control would not know what the temp was and would probably declare an F-3 error.
In your case I don't think that is the problem. What i think it is going to be is the ignitor. If it is getting weak it sometimes won't draw enough amps to open the safety bimetal inside the gas valve.
Probably the ignitor is on it's way out.

Maytag oven Model MGR 5720ADW

Hi dmtrans,

If your oven is heating up slowly then you probably have a bad baking element in your oven. This is the bottom element in your oven. By using an ohm meter you can check the resistance of the element. If you get no continuity through the element it is no good. On the other issue that you have, it is likely that the lower ignitor needs to be replaced. The range switches the gas valve on and off because it is not sensing the proper amount of resistance in the ignitor.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.
