Superior Quality & Long Service Life

Manufactured with an upgraded silicon carbide heating element and a reinforced ceramic holder, this igniter delivers fast heat-up and stable current draw required to open the gas safety valve. The high-temperature ceramic construction resists cracking and wear, offering up to 3× longer lifespan compared to standard igniters.

Note: The igniter element is fragile. Handle carefully during unpacking and installation to avoid damage.

Easy Installation

Installation is straightforward for most DIY users.

1. Disconnect power to the range and shut off the gas supply.
2. Remove oven racks and the oven bottom panel to access the burner.
3. Disconnect the old igniter wire connector and remove mounting screws.
4. Install the new igniter without touching the element surface directly.
5. Reconnect wiring, reinstall panels, restore power and gas, and test operation.

Safety & Performance Benefits

A properly functioning igniter ensures the gas valve opens correctly, reducing ignition delays, preventing gas buildup, and maintaining consistent oven temperatures for reliable cooking results.
