Hi, my oven stopped lighting itself and im unsure if its the safety valve or if its the igniter. Is there a way to test either? I read under the igniter description that if it doesn't glow or doesn't glow bright that it would be a bad igniter, so it does glow after about 10 secs, but i mean i don't have anything to compare it to for brightness and quickness. Thanks for any help you can give me
For model number fg500cebg
Hi Matt,
Thank you for your question. If the hot surface igniter does not glow you should first verify that you have voltage to the circuit. This is a live voltage check and should be performed by a qualified person. If voltage is lost at the valve terminals then you should verify the continuity of the bi-metal in the valve using a multi-meter. If the igniter does not glow at all, then check for power to the circuit. This is a live voltage check and should be performed by a qualified person. If power is present then the igniter may be open circuit and can be checked for continuity with a multi-meter. If the igniter is glowing, but the burner is not lighting, the igniter may be weak and still be at fault because it requires a certain amount of current draw to open the valve. This check requires the use of an amp meter and should be performed by a qualified person. If the igniter is defective then it must be replaced. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!
