Frigidaire Range/cooktop Repair – Louisville, OH (ES200/300)

A Louisville homeowner called about their Frigidaire range that won’t heat up. The broiler works, but the heating element on bottom does not. Our diagnosis revealed a failed oven ignitor that needed replacement.

The Problem

The customer reported their Frigidaire ES200/300 range won’t heat up. While the broiler was working normally, the heating element on bottom does not function at all.

Diagnosis

Testing confirmed the oven ignitor had failed completely. When an ignitor goes bad in a gas range, it cannot generate enough heat to open the gas valve, preventing the main burner from lighting even though other components like the broiler may still work.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: 5303935066 — Ignitor oven kit with nut
• Work performed: Replaced the oven ignitor
• Result: Issue is resolved. Preheat in 10 minutes 40 seconds

Is It Worth Repairing?

Frigidaire ranges are generally reliable appliances, and ignitor replacement is a common, cost-effective repair. These units typically provide many years of service when properly maintained, making this repair worthwhile for most homeowners.

Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Ranges

• Keep the oven interior clean to prevent grease buildup that can affect ignitor performance
• Avoid using harsh chemicals on the ignitor — gentle cleaning with a soft brush works best
• Check that oven racks are properly positioned to ensure adequate airflow around the ignitor
