Compatibility & Fitment

• Compatible with Frigidaire, Kenmore, Electrolux, Crosley, Tappan, and White-Westinghouse ranges.
• Fits various freestanding gas ranges, slide-in models, and built-in gas ovens.
• Designed for use in both bake (lower) and broil (upper) burner configurations where specified.

When to Replace

• Oven fails to heat or takes an unusually long time to ignite the gas burner.
• Igniter glows orange but does not get hot enough to trigger the gas valve release.
• Visible cracks, breaks, or white chemical "burn" spots on the dark gray heating element.
• The element does not glow at all when the oven is set to a bake or broil cycle.
• Multimeter testing shows no continuity across the igniter terminals.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect the appliance from the power source and shut off the gas supply before beginning.
• Remove oven racks and the bottom floor panel to access the burner assembly.
• Handle the new igniter only by the ceramic base; do not touch the gray heating element, as skin oils can cause premature failure.
• Unplug the existing wiring harness and remove the mounting screws (typically 1/4 inch hex head).
• Secure the new igniter in the exact same orientation as the original to ensure proper flame travel.
• Reconnect the wiring harness and ensure no wires are touching the burner or metal shielding before reassembling.
