We completed a range repair on West McKinley Avenue in Minerva, OH for a GE dual oven range that wasn’t heating properly. The customer reported that the ovens were not heating up at all, and when the top oven was heating up, it was not maintaining the correct temperature even though it showed it on the display.
The Problem
The ovens were not heating up at all. When the top oven was heating up, it was not maintaining the correct temperature even though it showed it on the display.
Diagnosis
Upper oven pulling 2.9 amps Lower oven igniter tests open. Both cavities need igniters.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: WB13X25633 — igniter, WB13X24924 — ignitor
- Work performed: Replaced igniters
- Result: good to go
Is It Worth Repairing?
GE ranges are generally built to last, and igniter replacement is a common, cost-effective repair that can extend the appliance’s life significantly. For a dual oven model like this PGB960 series, replacing both igniters is typically much more economical than purchasing a new range of similar quality and features.
Maintenance Tips for GE Ranges
- Keep the oven interior clean to prevent grease buildup that can affect igniter performance over time
- Avoid using oven cleaners directly on the igniter — these ceramic components are fragile when hot
- Check that oven racks are properly positioned to allow adequate airflow around the igniter during heating cycles
