This is a free-standing gas range/oven. The range burners all work, but today the oven won’t do anything (bake or broil). I need some guidance to figure out where to start. Thermostat? Safety Valve? Igniter?
Just a little more info: this oven has only one igniter / glow bar; the bake and broil functions out of the same buner. In reading this and other forums, it seems that some GE’s have two different igniter / glow bars.
Anyone have any suggestions? I just want to replace the broken item on this oven and it appears that the issue may be with one of three things: 1) Thermostat (could be, b/c it appears to be the switch that controls the oven/broiler operation and the ignitor is not doing anything)
2) Safety Valve (not likely from what I can figure)
3) Ignitor (most likely? as it simply does not glow or show any signs of life)
I guess it says something about our eating / cooking habits that we are able to be OK without our oven working — :rolleyes:
