SOURCE: viking pro. gas range/oven leaks when all knobs turned off

check both oven ignitor and broiler by turning the oven first, and time the time that the ignitor takes before the flame lights up, it should not take more then 60 to 70 seconds, and do the same to the broiler.the one that takes the longer passing that mark of the 70 seconds needs replacing it 's not getting hot enough to light the burner on time that's the one that passes gas with out igniting. replace that one.

Hi,
If your electric2_bing.gif oven is not heating then you probably have a bad heating element in your oven. This is not that hard to fix yourself...
Check out this tip that I wrote about the Oven not heating problem..

SOURCE: Frigidaire gas range model FGF316WGSH, all burners

Electric gas igniters sometimes get stuck in one position causing a clicking sound. The clicking sound that you hear is the electric arc that is pulsing from the igniter conductor (wire) to ground (the gas burner). It receives power from the electrical outlet that the stove is plugged into.
Residue from food and sometimes cleaning products may be preventing the igniter from producing a spark (Arc) to the base of the burner. This is a common problem that occurs when the stove has been cleaned or food is allowed to build up. Make sure that the igniter and the burner base are clean and dry. This will help with proper operation. Oven cleaner and a small tooth brush may be used to accomplish this. Another problem with ignition may occur if you have too little (touching) or too much space between the igniter and the base of the burner; it will prevent the burner from igniting. You should only have a little more space than the thickness of a nickel between the burner base and the igniter. A good "blue" arc from the igniter to the burner base is optimal. If this doesn’t work, you may need to replace the electric igniter module. Good luck.

I have a Dynasty DGRSC range. It has 2 burners and a broiler. All 3 ignitors glow but the ignition is delayed. The burners are still ok.
if you are asking about the bake and broil igniters if they glow it doesn't mean that they're good,they work with amps,when the igniter pulls from 3 to 3.6 amps it opens the gas valve and then the flame ignites,easiest way to check them if they do ignite the flame is set it to bake,when the igniter starts to glow time it,if it takes longer than 40 seconds for the flame to lite the igniter is bad,also if you have two igniters for bake check the burner tubes,alot of times you'll see one igniter lites on time and the other is lazy,it keeps glowing and the heat burns a hole through the burner tube then you have to replace both the igniter and tube,you'll see the hole behind the igniter if it happens.it says your igniters are no longer available but you can use frigidaire or whirlpool but the frigidaire is cheap part 5303935066 i use this igniter in most ovens that have a flat igniter and it will work in your oven,the igniters come with ceramic wire nuts,just cut the wires from the old igniter and wire nut the new igniter to the wires,it's that easy,try to make the wires long enough so you can tuck them out of the oven,one more thing,the screws that hold the igniters onto the tube can be hard to turn,i wet a paper towel and wipe the threads on the screws,this makes a big difference the screws back out very easy when wet,you don't want to spray them with any chemicals because the heat will burn the stuff off and stink and could get into your food.good luck and hope this helps you out.

Viking oven broiler will not ignite
Your gas valve would be my first guess. Is this broiler (and bake ) lit with a glow coil or spark probe that goes (goes click, click, to light)??
If spark probe, you will have to replace either gas valve or spark board.
If glow bar lights the broil but does not glow, then replace glow coil.

Stove top burners ignite, the broiler works, but when I try to bake, i get no heat
Is this a GAS range? Or an ELECTRIC range?

If this is a GAS range and the broiler is working, more than likely you have a worn igniter on the bake manifold that needs to be replaced. A glowing igniter does not necessarily mean it is good. The following link explains a little theory on how these igniters work and how to replace them:

http://www.fixya.com/support/r3575727-replacing_an_oven_igniter_on_a_gas_range

If this is an ELECTRIC range, more than likely the lower heating element for the oven (Bake) is defective and needs to be replaced. The following link explains how to replace a heating element on an electric range:

Since all the oven features on either a gas or electric range are controlled by the Electronic Range Control (ERC) board, and the broiler IS working, it may be safe to assume this is not a control board problem.

Oven will not light. it is a frigidaire model #
When the bake igniter becomes weak or burns out, your oven will not bake. The bake igniter is usually mounted on the oven burner. It's about 1 inch by 4-8 inches (depending on the model), and comes in round or flat styles. If you don't see the igniter glow at all, it's probably burned out. Replace the igniter if found defective. Note: one of the exceptions could be that your oven is set to automatic mode instead of manual. If this is the case, set your oven to manual mode and check again.

If the bake igniter glows red and not bright yellow or white, it is probably because it is too weak. When this happens, the safety valve will not let the gas out into the oven burner. A weak igniter must be replaced.

A faulty igniter is probably the most common cause, however there are others:

  1. Defective thermostat
  2. Defective selector switch
  3. Defective gas safety valve
  4. Defective gas valve coils

The oven gas does not come on? Top and Broiler does. Oven igniter does glow
If your oven won't bake, check these:

Bake igniter
Other causes
Bake igniter Usually when an oven won't bake, it's because the bake igniter is weak or burned out. The igniter is a small, round or rectangular device, that's about 1 inch by 4 to 8 inches. It's near the burner itself.

The burner is the tube-type device the gas flows through before it's ignited. It has many small holes on the sides to let the gas, when ignited, form a long, low flame. If the igniter is weak, if it glows red but doesn't get hot enough, or if it's burned out, the gas doesn't flow to the burner and the burner won't ignite. If this is the problem, you may need to replace either the igniter or the gas safety valve. Usually the igniter is to blame.

Other causes Other reasons that your oven may not bake are:

  • The clock settings are incorrect (if you have timed baking or a self-cleaning oven).

  • The thermostat is defective.

  • The safety valve that prevents accidental gas flow is defective.

  • The selector switch is defective.
