Top-selling Inglis gas range replacement parts

• Oven door light switch. The oven door light switch is a plunger switch on the frame of the oven above the opening to the oven. The oven door pushes the oven light switch plunger in when the door is closed to turn the light off. When the door is open, the plunger is released and the light is on.
• Outer oven door glass panel. The outer oven door glass panel is the heat-resistant piece of glass that forms the outer part of the oven door.
• Oven door hinge. The hinges on an oven door control the rate at which the door opens and also allow the door to stay open at an angle. Hinges are usually installed in pairs so the hinges and tension springs match, ensuring the smooth operation of the door.
• Oven door lock assembly. The oven door lock assembly is a safety mechanism that prevents accidental burns and oven fires by latching the door shut during self-cleaning. The door unlocks when the oven cools to a safe temperature (usually less than 200 degrees F). It's also used on ovens with the child lock-out feature. The assembly includes the lock and switches that detect whether the door is locked.
• Spark igniter electrode. The spark igniter electrode provides an ignition spark to light a surface gas burner. It's an insulated electrode that sends a spark to the burner head when the spark module provides voltage. It sparks with a ticking sound when you turn the burner switch on a control knob to the Lite position.

How to replace the oven burner igniter in your Inglis gas range

• Unplug the range and turn off the gas supply shut-off valve.
• Remove the oven racks. Remove the screws at the back of the bottom oven panel. Lift the back of the panel slightly and push back to release the bottom oven panel from the retaining lip. Push down on a front corner of the bottom panel so it tips enough that you can grasp the sides of the panel. Work the bottom oven panel up and out of the oven.
• Note how the carbide electrode on the igniter overlaps the holes in the burner. Use a 1/4-inch nut driver to remove the 2 hex-head screws from the bracket that holds the igniter on the burner.
• Detach the igniter plug from the wire harness by releasing the locking tabs on the connector. Pull the igniter out of the oven and set it aside for disposal.
• Being careful not to touch the carbide electrode with your fingers, plug the igniter into the wire harness.
• Position the new igniter so its holes line up with those on the mounting bracket. Insert the mounting screws and tighten firmly. Push the wires down, out of the way of the burner.
• Work the bottom oven panel into place. Slide the oven racks into the oven.
• Open the gas supply shut-off valve for the range and plug the power cord back into the electrical outlet.
