I have a magic chef furnace model #acd13-u60-4, 60,000 btu. When i turn on the furnace from the thermostat the unit lights up and the sound of the ignitor clicks for about 25 seconds What could be the problem? While there is already a little flame from the burners and then the furnace ignites then shuts back down to a low flame and continues to do the same steps then finally kicks in for a while. Sometimes when it finally kicks on i hear a boom and it opens the doors where the unit is located. I do smell gas sometimes for a little while so this is telling me that there is gas buildup at times. Need some help or suggestions.

SOURCE: Oven not working - strong gas ordor

man that is an old oven, according to the diagram ther is a pilot light in the oven compartment , access form the lower drawer/ cover panel, looks like a pilot for sure and problably has blown out

SOURCE: Burner flame shuts off during use and then you smell gas

all ovens, when they reach temperature they go off and on to kip the temperature, but if you smell gas the oven ignitor needs replacing, the ignitor gets red hot to ignite the burner ,but when ignitor does not get hot enough, it will have a delayed, that's the reason you smell gas.

SOURCE: Magic chef gas stove has flames coming from the bottom

Replace the burner. Quickly. Do not use that burner until it is replaced.

SOURCE: kitchenaid gas stove left back burner won't light. hear clicking

I have a Kitchen Aid gas stove. All the burners will not light. No clicking, NOTHING. Is there a lighting switch or something that needs to be replaced ?? Or do I replace all 4 lighters ??

SOURCE: burners sometimes will not light

You can check the ignitors/wiring by switching

the output wires at the spark module. If the

front ones work & back ones stop working, change

out the module. If no change take a look at the

ignitor(remove screw on bottom to remove

ignitor), ignitor wire & ground wire by removing

the burners.

Possible Causes Of Continuous Sparking:
Defective spark wires.
Continuous high heat can cause spark wires to

degrade. Use volt/ohm meter to determine

continuity
of spark wires. Look for obvious cuts/ abrasions

or pinch points. A defective wire can allow
spark voltage to transfer through insulation to

ground prior to reaching spark electrode. Under
normal circumstances all igniters fi re together

and if the burner in question has found an

easier
ground path the spark will go there. It will

not, however, in most cases have found a

CONTINUOUS
ground path such as what the fl ame would

provide under normal circumstances. This will

cause
the spark module to re-ignite.
