Symptoms of an igniter going bad
- If the oven doesn't bake evenly
- doesn't heat at all.
- Igniter does not glow white, but more of a yellowish orange.
How to test: Over time all oven igniters weaken. As this happens, it will take longer for the gas valve to open and eventually not at all. If the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without igniting the gas flame, the oven igniter should be replaced.
