[FIXED] Frigidaire Gas Oven & Broiler Not working
Seems to be a common/classic problem: Stove Top burners still function, but the Oven and Broiler do not ignite or work.
I've read that the Oven Igniter Bar is the major culprit. BUT...
My question is: Is it just the Oven Igniter that needs replacing, or is it also the Broiler Igniter?
The Oven Igniter is not even glowing. Whereas the Broiler Igniter does glow. And no gas is coming out. I do not smell any gas, even after leaving both either the Broiler or Oven on for a few minutes.
Thank you all in advance for your assistance.
And thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise.

Did the oven igniter and broil igniter stop working at the same time?
The broil igniter is getting power because its getting 120 volts, but its not opening the gas valve, so thats usually the igniter itself is bad.
Now for the oven igniter, you'll need a volt meter to check for 120 volts at the connector that the oven igniter plugs into when your oven is set to ON.
The oven igniter electrical connector is below the oven, just remove the storage drawer and get a flashlight/floodlight to see better.

Hi Jake & everyone else:
I was running out of time and took a chance that it was just the oven igniter.
Replaced the oven igniter and all is well!
Thanks for the great advice and willingness to assist.
All the best.
