Broiler won't light
The burner for a broiler won't light.
It glows fine, but never lights. It has been taking a long to light up to this point. It's a Tappan Gas Range, 30 Series. The stove top burners work fine. Thanks, Andy |

There were 3 wires going to the ignition unit. The readings were 2.34, 2.46, and 2.62 amps with the broiler knob turned on. Is there some place I can find out what they should be? Andy |
