WB13X25500 Gas Range Oven Igniter - Compatible with GE, Hotpoint, RCA Ranges

Product Description

Restore your gas oven’s baking performance with the WB13X25500 Gas Range Oven Igniter from Express Parts Direct. This high-quality replacement flat-style glow bar igniter replaces the GE WB13X25500, designed for select GE, Hotpoint, and RCA gas ranges with hot surface ignition systems. Featuring a 3.5-inch ceramic body, 18-inch lead wires with a quick-disconnect plug, and a 3.2–3.6 amp rating at 120V, it heats to open the oven safety valve and ignite the gas burner. It’s a cost-effective solution for ovens that won’t start, heat unevenly, emit a gas smell without igniting, or experience delayed ignition. Handle with care to avoid damaging the fragile silicon carbide element.

Note: If the igniter glows but doesn’t ignite, check the gas safety valve for proper function.

• 🛡️ Reliable Fixes: Resolves issues like no ignition, uneven heating, gas smell, delayed ignition, or oven not reaching set temperature.

Installation Notes:

• Tools Needed: Phillips screwdriver, small socket set or nut driver, needle-nose pliers, wire splicing tool.

• Safety First: Disconnect power and shut off the gas valve before installation.

• Handle with Care: Avoid touching the silicon carbide element with bare hands, as oils can shorten the igniter’s lifespan. Wear nitrile gloves during handling.

• Installation Steps: Pull the oven away from the wall, unplug power, and turn off the gas line. Remove the oven bottom panel (2 screws) and access the igniter via the drawer area or rear panel. Unplug the igniter’s wire harness, unscrew the igniter (2 screws), and pull wires through. If the quick-disconnect plug doesn’t match, cut and splice wires using the included ceramic wire nuts. Install the new igniter, reassemble, and tuck excess wires near the gas safety valve to avoid heat exposure. Note: Fused or rusted screws may require a Dremel tool; removing the oven door aids access. If the igniter glows but doesn’t ignite, test the gas safety valve.
