It looks like I need a new igniter for my Whirlpool gas range/oven. The oven won't heat up after 2 clicks. I've taken off the lower panel to see, but it looks complicated. The current igniter is the round kind, not the flat version. The top of it extends up above a panel. Do I have to take anything else apart in order to remove and replace it? Any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks You're missing part of your model no. I'm thinking you have spark ignition. In which case you could have a bad spark module Part number: AP3672576
Or maybe a bad ground, a leaky spark wire (worn spot shorting to frame), a bad gas valve, or even a partially melted or misaligned spark electrode.
