Frigidaire Range/cooktop Repair – Hartville, OH (PLGF389CCC)

A Frigidaire range in Hartville wasn’t working correctly — the broiler worked fine but baking did not work, and customers noticed gas smell issues during operation. Our diagnosis revealed a visibly damaged and worn out oven bake ignitor that needed immediate replacement.

The Problem

The customer reported that their oven wasn’t working correctly. The broiler works fine but baking does not work. If you hit preheat it will warm up but bake does not work. Sometimes it will start to heat up and then it stops and you’ll get a gas smell.

Diagnosis

The oven bake ignitor was visibly damaged and worn out. This component is critical for proper gas valve operation — when it fails, the oven either won’t heat at all or creates unsafe gas conditions during the heating cycle.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: 5303935066 — Ignitor oven kit with nut
• Work performed: Replaced the damaged oven bake ignitor
• Result: Oven burner ignited in approximately 40 seconds, preheat completed in 10 minutes

Is It Worth Repairing?

Frigidaire ranges are solid mid-range appliances that typically justify repair when the issue is a single component failure like this ignitor. Gas range ignitors are wear items that eventually need replacement, but the repair extends the appliance’s useful life significantly. This model should provide years of reliable service after this repair.

Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Gas Ranges

• Keep oven burner ports clear of food debris that can block proper gas flow and put extra strain on the ignitor
• Avoid using harsh oven cleaners near the ignitor — the ceramic element can be damaged by caustic chemicals
• If ignition times start getting longer than normal, schedule service before complete failure occurs
