Oven igniter replacement

Your oven is not heating or failing to reach the proper temperature? If you own a Frigidaire gas oven model FGGF3030PFC, this issue may be more common than you think. One of our recent repair calls in Atlanta involved this exact model, and the solution was straightforward: replacing the oven igniter.

🔍 Why Your Oven Is Not Heating to Temperature

The oven turned on—lights worked, the display was active, and the cooktop burners were functional—but the inside of the oven wouldn’t heat correctly. If your oven is not heating, a faulty bake igniter is one of the most likely culprits, especially in gas models.

A weak igniter may glow but fail to get hot enough to open the gas valve, meaning your burner never fully ignites—resulting in an oven that stays cold or only partially heats.

🔧 Is Oven Not Heating? Here’s How We Replaced the Igniter

The oven igniter is responsible for igniting the gas that heats your oven. When it’s faulty, your oven simply won’t reach the set temperature—or it may not heat at all. Below is the procedure we followed to get this Frigidaire model baking again:

✅ Step-by-Step: How to Replace the Igniter When Your Oven Is Not Heating

    1. Safety First
      Always disconnect the power and gas supply before starting work on any appliance.

    2. Access the Igniter

      • Remove oven racks.

      • Unscrew and lift the bottom panel of the oven to access the burner area.

      • The igniter is located next to the burner tube. In some cases, it may be easier to remove the burner assembly to reach it.

    3. Replace the Faulty Igniter

  • Unplug the wiring connector from the existing igniter.

  • Unscrew and remove the defective igniter from its bracket.

  • Mount the new oven igniter and reconnect the wiring harness.

  1. Reassemble the Oven

    • Reinstall the burner assembly if it was removed.

    • Secure the bottom panel and return oven racks to their place.

  2. Test the Oven

    • Restore power and gas.

    • Turn the oven on and observe: the new igniter should glow, and the burner should ignite. Your oven should now heat up as expected.
