The gas presure is fine. The electrical circuit registers a voltage going to the valve/safety when the oven is turned and the glow elemnet lights. There is no detcetable click from the valve when the oven is turned. I surmise that I need a new valve but could there be another cause, if so how do I eliminate it?

GREAT POST !!!!

To expand on this post.... When the Igniter glows very bright it supplies about 3.3 volts to the safety valve.

When the Igniter goes bad at about 5 years depending on use.... It will glow but DIMMER.... When it is dimmer it is only supplying about 2.? volts to the safety valve. Not enough to light it....

I have seen my share of Igniter's failing..... I lived in a Track Home in San Diego for about 13 years and at the 5 year point most of the Neighbors started to have Igniter problems.... I even had my Igniter go bad on Thanksgiving Morning.... Thankfully my Neighbor let me steal the igniter from her oven as she was going out of town. I replaced hers with a new one and hers worked about 2 years.

So the trick is KNOWING that a DIM GLOW is not a GOOD GLOW.... Don't be fooled...

The Picture above is the Igniter I used... I bought the first one from a local supply place.... It had the opposite plug on it and I took it back.... Use the Model Number as there are a few flavors of this part, the difference being the plug.

Good Luck,
