Is it cheaper to buy a new unit?

That’s a great question! While every situation is unique, when it comes to repairs, we typically advise against costs exceeding 50% of a new unit’s price unless special circumstances apply. Replacing an appliance involves various expenses like purchase, delivery, and installation fees, plus potential costs for old appliance removal and warranties. Disposing appliances improperly can harm the environment, release pollutants, and waste valuable materials.

BURNERS WORK. OVEN WON'T HEAT.

Why do my gas burners work but my oven won't heat?

Your stovetop burners and oven use different parts to ignite the gas.

That means the burners can work normally even when the oven won’t heat.

A worn or failed bake igniter is one possible cause. If the igniter isn’t working properly, the oven may not light or reach the set temperature.

The Problem

Burners Worked, but the Oven Wouldn't Heat

A customer in Libertyville, IL, had an Amana gas range with stovetop burners that worked normally, but the oven wouldn't heat.

Even though the range was more than 10 years old, the customer wanted to know whether the oven could be repaired instead of replacing the entire appliance. The customer could get back to using their oven without replacing the entire range.

The Repair

A Failed Bake Igniter Was the Problem

Our technician found that the oven's bake igniter needed replacement. The igniter helps light the gas that heats the oven. When it fails, the stovetop burners may still work even though the oven won't heat.

Fortunately, our technician had the replacement igniter stocked on the service vehicle and installed it during the visit.

The Solution

Oven Heating Restored Without Replacing the Range

After installing the new bake igniter, our technician tested the Amana oven and confirmed it was working properly.

The customer could get back to cooking without having to replace the entire range.

RANGE QUESTIONS

ask us
anything

Why does my Amana gas stove work but the oven doesn't?

The stovetop burners and oven use separate ignition parts. This means the burners may light normally even if the oven’s bake igniter has failed. Other electrical or gas-control problems can also prevent the oven from heating.

How do I know if my Amana oven igniter is bad?

Common signs include an oven that won’t heat, takes too long to heat, or fails to ignite. Some igniters may glow but still be too weak to open the gas safety valve. A technician can test the igniter to confirm the problem.

Can a bad igniter prevent a gas oven from heating?

Yes. The bake igniter is part of the oven’s ignition system. If it fails, the oven may not light or produce heat, even when the stovetop burners are working.

Is it worth replacing an oven igniter on a range that's over 10 years old?

It can be. If the range is otherwise in good condition, replacing a failed igniter may cost less than buying a new appliance. The best choice depends on the range’s condition, repair cost, and availability of parts.

Can I replace an Amana oven igniter myself?

Oven igniter replacement involves gas and electrical components. Incorrect installation can create safety risks. Professional diagnosis and repair are recommended, especially if the cause of the heating problem hasn’t been confirmed.
