We completed an oven repair on Gulf Street NW in Uniontown, OH for a Samsung gas oven that wouldn’t light. The customer reported that surface burners were working fine, but the oven itself wouldn’t ignite. Our diagnosis revealed a failed bake igniter that needed replacement.
The Problem
Oven not lighting. Surface burners fine.
Diagnosis
Bake igniter had failed. 120 v to igniter. Igniter tests open.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: 12400035 — IGNITOR
- Work performed: Replaced igniter
- Result: Good to go. Six month warranty on parts and labor.
Is It Worth Repairing?
Samsung gas ovens are generally reliable appliances, and igniter replacement is a common, cost-effective repair. This NX60T8311SG model is part of Samsung’s mid-range line and should provide years of additional service after this repair. The igniter is a wear item that typically fails due to normal thermal cycling over time.
Maintenance Tips for Samsung Gas Ovens
- Keep the oven interior clean to prevent grease buildup that can affect igniter performance
- Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on Samsung’s interior surfaces — stick to mild soap and water
- Check that oven racks are properly positioned to allow adequate airflow around the igniter
