Description
Restore the primary heating function of your gas oven with the Whirlpool 814269 Gas Oven Igniter. This genuine OEM part is a flat-style silicon carbide igniter that is critical for starting the flow of gas to the main oven burner. The igniter must draw a specific amount of electrical current (typically 3.2 to 3.6 Amps) to signal the gas valve to open and allow the burner to ignite. If your oven won't heat, or the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without the gas lighting, replacing this igniter will resolve the issue.
Features & Benefits
- Genuine OEM flat-style silicon carbide igniter for gas ovens and ranges.
- Heats up to signal the gas valve to open, initiating the bake or broil function.

Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
