What's the best way to get at it? Can it be done without pulling the
whole oven out and tipping it on the side?


On the oven I worked on, taking the oven out would not help replace
the ignitor.

Remember. Do not under any circumstances touch it when installing it.
Leave it in the plastic until it is in and then remove the plastic.
Touching it is a sure way of ending its life quick. You may be able to see
a crack in the old one avoiding the need for any test.


Don't some of them have a metal screen around them? And you can touch
the metal screen, right?

I got one in the mail today, but I haven't opened it, and I only saw
the original from a distance.

So if there is a metal cage around the thing, I can touch it?

Remove NOPSAM to email me. Please let
me know if you have posted also.
