PROBLEMS
6.
Oven Burner/Broil Burner
will not turn on.
"SELECTOR" switch set
on "MANUAL".
Thermostat set at
350°/Broil Door latch in
cook position.
NOTE: The flat type
ignitor used in these
models has an operating
current range of from 3.2
amps A.C. to 3.6 amps
A.C. The gas valve is
calibrated to open at
slightly over 3.2 amps,
since the ignitor will be hot
enough to ignite any gas
flowing from the burner.
The current can be
checked using a clamp-on
ampmeter on an in-line
ampmeter. If the current
does not reach 3.2 amps,
replace the ignitor.
