Tappan Gas Oven Igniter going bad? Amps?
Model Number: 30-4387-00 Brand: Tappan Age: More than 10 years
The broil flame lights fine within 20 seconds of seeing the igniter glow. The bake igniter comes on and I have tried leaving it on for up to 2 minutes, but I never smell gas, so I suspect that the ignitor may not be pulling enough amps, or the gas valve may not be opening. Would measuring amps through the ignitor tell me anything? What should the amps reading be? Is the gas valve a probable cause?

Hi John,
Most likely the bake igniter is bad and has to be replaced. You can learn how the oven igniter works from one of my previous posts: Gas Oven not burning - The part number for the bake igniter is AP2150412 Gene.
