I have a propane Jenn Air gas wall oven. The broiler works fine, the bottom log will not light because it isn't getting gas. The light to ignite the gas is working fine. What do I do? I do not hav
most likely you have a bad bake igniter go here and look at part if it looks like this get it and replace the igniter,if your igniter that you have now glows but doesn't lite the flame within 40 seconds it's bad,when the igniter gets 3.6 amps it opens the gas valve and the heat from the igniter or glow bar ignites the flame,no more pilots it's all electronic now.hope this helps,it comes with two ceramic wire nuts,cut the two wires that come off the old igniter close the the body,strip the wires back,and here's a tip,wet a paper towel and wet the threads on the screws that hold the igniter in place,they come out alot easier and don't strip,you don't want to use wd or anything that will smell when it heats up water works great,then you want to make your new wires long enough so you can tuck the wire nuts down into the floor if the tube goes down but get the nuts out of the direct heat in the oven cavity and reinstall the igniter to the tube. and then wire nut the wires together,shut the breaker off or unplug it depending on what model you have,but usually there's no power there and you don't have to shut the gas off,no gas will come out,the igniter is what opens the gas valve so it has to be on,it's a pretty easy job,you can go on utube if you need to see a video but it's that simple,cut the wires,reconnect the new igniter to the wires and wire nut them together,it doesn't matter what wire goes where,just make sure you wet the threads and make sure the wire nuts don't pull off,if they don't thread onto the wire,make one of the wires a little longer and then when you twist them together fold the wire over so it's thicker and it will thread into the nut better,just on the top bend the wire over so it's thicker with a pair of needle nose plyers.just the tip of the wire.
