I know for a fact that about every occupation knmown to man has someone who is proficient at it on this site.
My oven is no0t working correctly. It is not igniting.
The igniter is glowing brightly.
Only a small amount of gas seems to be reaching the burner. If I light the burner manually, the gas jets are tiny, and do not heat the oven very much.
The oven is a twenty year old Kenmore. From replacing an upper burner, I know it uses at least some Frigidaire parts.
As at least some gas is getting to the oven burner, I am figuring the igniter must be intact, as well as from the brightness of the glow. I had a cracked igniter on it once, and the symptoms were different.
I am thinking that the gas safety valve, apparently called the oven valve, could be bad? There is plenty of flame height on the burners, so I do not suspect the regulator as being bad.
Any suggestions as to where I should look, or which component may be the culprit? From the illustrations and the schematic, it is relatively simple.
