Compatibility & Fitment

  • Compatible with Viking professional-grade gas ranges and built-in ovens.
  • Suitable for use in both bake and broil burner systems.
  • Fits various 30-inch, 36-inch, 48-inch, and 60-inch range models.
  • Designed for high-BTU burner applications requiring consistent ignition performance.

When to Replace

  • Oven fails to heat or the main burner does not ignite after several minutes.
  • Igniter glows but does not reach the required temperature to open the gas safety valve.
  • Visible cracks, localized pitting, or physical breakage on the silicon carbide heating element.
  • Gas odor is present without ignition during the start-up cycle.
  • Multimeter testing indicates an open circuit (no continuity) through the igniter leads.

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect the power supply and shut off the gas valve before performing any service.
  • Handle the new igniters by the ceramic base only; avoid touching the black heating element to prevent premature failure from skin oils.
  • If the original connector does not match, use the included ceramic wire nuts to splice the new igniter leads to the existing oven wiring.
  • Ensure all wire connections are tucked away from direct contact with the burner flame or sharp metal edges.
  • Verify the igniter is positioned so that the heating element is directly in the path of the gas flow from the burner ports.

FAQs

This igniter is a direct replacement for Viking part numbers PB040001, 065650-000, 702263, SGR40001, GR40001, 792263, and AP5315579.
The most common sign of a failing igniter is the oven failing to heat or taking an unusually long time to reach the set temperature. If you notice the igniter glowing but the gas burner fails to ignite, or if the igniter does not glow at all, it is likely time for a replacement.
This package includes two replacement igniters and four ceramic wire nuts to ensure a secure, heat-resistant connection during installation.
Installation is straightforward for most DIYers. You will generally need a screwdriver to access the burner assembly and remove the old igniter. Ensure the power to the range is disconnected before beginning. You will use the included ceramic wire nuts to connect the new igniter wires to your oven's existing harness.
Yes, the heating element of the igniter is fragile. Avoid touching the white ceramic heating surface with your bare hands, as oils from your skin can create hot spots and lead to premature failure. It is best to handle the igniter by its base or mounting bracket.
This igniter is designed for use with Viking glow bar ignition systems. Because Viking has produced many range configurations over the years, we recommend verifying that your current igniter matches the physical shape and mounting style of this unit before installation.
