I have a seven year ol gas range. The oven would not ignite. I replaced the ignitor. One of the wires looked black when I stripped it. I cleaned it as well as I could then attached the new ignitor with the wire nuts provided. I pluged in the oven and tried to turn the oven on before installing the flame spreader. The oven door was open. The contol pannel made a beep as I pushed the button and a few seconds latter it clicked. The ignitor did not begin glowing. I continued to observe the ignitor far a minute. I examined the flame bar and it did not seem corroded.

I believe that I may need to replace either the gas saftey valve (see part 17 - diagram Burner replacement parts for Frigidaire FGF337AWJ Frigidaire/gas Range | AppliancePartsPros.com) or the control panel. I don't know how to test for continuity. We think that the parts are to expensive to keep on trying things that don't fix the problem. Please advise.

Unplug the igniter from the wall connector and measure the voltage at the connector while the control calls for Bake.

The following article on our forum will explain in detail how to run a continuity test using either an analog meter or a digital meter - http://forum.appliancepartspros...continuity-ohmmeter.html
