Voltage for stove Igniter?
Our oven broiler, which I don't recall ever being used since we bought
it years ago, won't turn on. Gas, with electric globar ignition. Before I remove it to test it, can someone let me know what voltage these igniters operate on (Sears Kenmore model)? Since the oven sections works properly, as do the spark ignited stovetop burners. For the time being, I assume the broiler control isn't defective, since it does control the oven section properly. Since I have the schematic for the oven, I took a look, but voltages are not shown. |

just replace igniter. full operating description at the samurai: http://fixitnow.com/2004/09/applianc...revelation.htm Thanks. Reason I asked was to check voltage to the igniter first to be sure no other problem might exist, since I replaced one in the oven section some time ago (Just assumed it was bad!) and they're not cheap! |

Dan,
Most of these use the household voltage of 120VAC, as that is the only source. ------------------------------------- Dan Wenz wrote: Our oven broiler, which I don't recall ever being used since we bought it years ago, won't turn on.

Hi, Model#? Before I remove it to test it, can someone let me know what voltage these igniters operate on Normally 110-120 volts AC. But, the ignitor can get voltage, glow red and still be bad as well! http://www.applianceaid.com/gas.html#glow I assume the broiler control isn't defective, since it does control the oven section properly. Never assume! Since I have the schematic for the oven, I took a look, but voltages are not shown They normally are not shown. jeff. Appliance Repair Aid http://www.applianceaid.com/ |

If it doesn't glow, remove it and inspect it. Look for a break in the ignitor indicated by a small white spot. |

These things do not draw much power. Some might even tolerate 120 or 240. Read the specs on your particular range. |

I knew they were idiots and now we have proof. |
