The gas oven on my Range Master is not burning correctly.It makes a hissing noise when it is light,and doesnt heat up as is should.I cannot get to the burner to clean it.What can I do???

sorry but we do not advise self fixing of gas appliances they go BOOM and can burn your house down if not done properly

this is because the gas is on full before the oven lights
IT is an explosive situation and should be quickly corrected by an accredited gas fitter
the soot indicates an incorrect burn ratio and that will be the major part of the problem

Has the regulator been switch to Propane? this may be the problem if it was just put in service for propane.

Hey Larry Storck, thanks for your post!

It sounds like a potential problem with your ports being clogged or your igniter is not aligned. I would seek assistance from a professional to come and properly diagnose your range. -Matt

if the glow igniter is on and it doesnt light its probably the gas valve

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. If you have a electric oven or a gas oven that won't heat or doesn't heat properly, here are some things you will need to check. The most likely cause of a oven not heating correctly is a defetive heating element. You have two types of heating elements in your oven. The bottom element(s) are the baking elements. The element(s) on the top are the broil elements. If you don't see the bright red glow from the element, chances are they are not working or not working correctly. If a heating element is bad, you need to replace the entire element. If your oven is warm and not correctly hot, one of the elements may be bad. In most ovens, when you preheat, both elements are used. This would make the oven to appear like it is working correctly but it is not. If the elements are not working, they might not be getting power. Test the wires to the elements with a voltage meter to make sure they are getting power before you decide to change them out. Many electrical ovens have a sensor that monitors the oven temperture. Ovens that have this sensor usually contain a digital display on the oven. The sensor could be defective. Those without the sensor use the basic mechanical system to control the oven temperature. You also want to check the thermostat sensing bulb. Make sure the bulb is good and has not come loose. Now, if you have a gas range oven that doesn't heat properly, first, you want to check your bake igniter. It may have burned out or it could be not working properly. It will be located near your burner. It is also possible that you are not getting gas to the burner. If so, it may be the gas safety valve or the igniter. You need to check your selector switch and thermostat as well. They may be defective. Always make sure you test the parts for power with a voltage meter of some type before you decide to change the part. If you have a part that appears to not be working, it may not be getting power because of a bad wire or broken connection. Thank you for your time and thanks for choosing FixYa.

Hi. There is an adjustment screw on each burner. Just make tiny adjustments until you are happy with it. Regarding the gas hiss, yes that is normal.

3 thumbs up please. Thanks, Joe

igniter is burnt out there is a separate igniter for the broiler the gas shuts off to the oven when the igniter burns out

can you hear a hissing sound? if your element isnt working it will need to be replaced as a saftey measure most ovens will not "pass gass" without a working element to prevent explosions, try wiggling the connnections to the element and make sure everything is tight and see if it will heat
