Shop here before other placesOur gas stove igniter quit working, replaced with this one , it was perfect. ( we had a model number to go by, very easy to find the one you need. My husband installed it. Saved us a few hundred dollars.

Looks and installed exactly as the original part. I ordered 2 to be safe. It’s been several months now and I haven’t had any problems. We use our oven excessively too.

I thought I was going to have to buy a new stove but my son checked it out and I just needed a new igniter. So instead of hundreds of dollars I spent about $15. Yeah! It took him just a little while to find the problem, order the part and fix it for me.

I was a little worried after reading reviews about part being broken when it was received. The part came wrapped in foam and bubble wrap an was in perfect condition. It took less then 20 minutes to replace bad igniter. No modifications had to be made, fit my Frigidaire model PLGFZ390ECD perfectly. Only time will tell on the longevity but for now I am very happy with this product.

The igniter is appearance wise and exact replacement the original igniter in the Kenmore stove I was fixing. It fit fine and is working perfectly. HOWEVER the ceramic wire nuts are an awful design. They are all ceramic (without the tapered metal spiral found in most wire nuts) and they are badly sized for the wire gauge that you will be connecting. The ONLY way I could get them to work was by making the stripped wire ends longer than the 1/2″ that I typically strip wires for wire nut use, twist the wires together with my fingers, then bend the combined ends back, effectively doubling the combined wire diameter. This still didn’t work nearly as well as plastic wire nuts (which you can’t use because they might melt). So, good igniter, BAD wire nuts.

I purchased the igniter to repair a Kenmore gas range. The installation was straightforward except I had to splice the original plug onto the igniter since the included plug did not fit.After about four months of occasional use, the igniter suddenly failed. There was no apparent crack in the igniter, but the resistance reading was way out of spec at around 2M ohms. Extremely disappointing since the previous igniter lasted about 5 years.

Item was fairly easy to install having done one before. it helps to look up a how to on youtube first and follow the instructions for the item in the package as well. Item worked great.

Was an exact match for Kenmore (Sears) natural gas oven model 790.71373703. Noticed that the old ignitor would glow but sometimes it wouldn’t produce enough current to open the natural gas safety valve and allow the gas to flow to the burner tube. The problem was intermit as sometimes the oven would work properly and sometimes it would not. Determined this was the issue by researching on the internet and watching various repair/troubleshooting videos that explained the exact issue I had with my oven.More research found the repair replacement part number and Amazon had it available from a seller. It arrived in 2 days and only took approximately 30-45 minutes to install (again, using the troubleshooting/repair videos I found on-line as a guide).Oven is working very well now and lights much quicker so it makes me think the old ignitor had been going out for years. In fact when the oven was turned on, it would make a “swoosh” sound when it finally would light. Now it’s much quieter and does not make that sound with the new ignitor. So if you have a gas oven and it makes that sound when you light it, you may want to consider replacing your ignitor.
