Three days after using the self-cleaning feature on this Kenmore gas oven the bake igniter will not come on. The broil igniter works fine. I tested the voltage between the bake igniter terminals and obtained a reading of 120v when I set the controls to BAKE, so I am pretty sure the problem is not in the internal circuitry but rather that the igniter is burned out. Am I correct? Should I order and install a new igniter now?

Thanks,

Don

Hi Don,

You are absolutely right - the igniter has to be replaced. The model number you posted is incomplete and if you need the part number for the igniter, verify and repost the model number.

Gene.
