The oven igniter is the component that lights the gas burner — when you set the oven to bake or broil, electricity flows through the igniter, heating it until it glows bright orange. This heat both ignites the gas and draws enough current to open the gas safety valve, releasing gas to the burner. When the igniter weakens with age, it may still glow but no longer pull enough current to open the safety valve — so the oven fails to light, takes a long time to heat, or heats unevenly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a flat-style, open-cage igniter. Electrical rating: 3.2–3.6 amps, 120V AC. Made of silicon carbide and ceramic for high heat resistance and long service life. Overall dimensions: 3-1\/2\"L x 1-3\/4\"W x 13\/16\"H with a 1.5\" ceramic block; the lead and plug measure approximately 16\" long. Includes the flat-style igniter assembly with bracket and leads\/plug.

Important: the igniter element is fragile — handle it only by the bracket, never by the element itself.

Shut off the gas supply to the range at the shutoff valve and disconnect electrical power at the breaker before beginning any repair. After installation, if you smell gas at any point, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility provider. If you're not comfortable working around gas components, have this repair done by a qualified appliance technician. Improper gas appliance repairs can cause fire, explosion, or carbon monoxide hazards.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-warning\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ Handle the Igniter by the Bracket Only — The Element Is Fragile\u003c\/strong\u003e Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the gas supply before beginning. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. \u003cstrong\u003eThe silicon carbide igniter element is extremely fragile and cracks easily — handle the new igniter only by its metal bracket, never by touching the element itself.\u003c\/strong\u003e Skin oils and any impact can shorten its life or break it. Locate the igniter: the bake igniter is beneath the oven floor panel (remove the oven racks, then the floor panel, and on some models the bottom drawer for access), while the broil igniter is mounted near the top of the oven cavity. Photograph the wiring connection before disconnecting. Disconnect the old igniter's wire leads at the connector (they're often joined with ceramic wire nuts). Remove the screws securing the old igniter bracket and lift it out. Install the new 316489403 by securing its bracket in the same position and orientation, then connect the wire leads (use the included or existing ceramic wire nuts — regular wire nuts can't handle the heat). Route the leads away from the burner flame. Restore gas and power. Test by setting the oven to bake (or broil, if that's the igniter you replaced) — the igniter should glow bright orange within a minute or so, and the burner should light within about 60–90 seconds. Tools needed: Nut driver, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves, safety glasses.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eMy igniter glows but the oven won't light — do I still need to replace it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eYes — this is actually the most common way an oven igniter fails, and it's counterintuitive. The igniter has two jobs: to get hot enough to ignite the gas, AND to draw enough electrical current to open the gas safety valve. As an igniter ages, it can still glow (so it looks like it's working) but weaken to the point where it no longer pulls enough current to open the safety valve — so no gas is released and the burner never lights. If your igniter glows orange but the burner doesn't light within about 90 seconds, the igniter is weak and needs replacement. A good rule of thumb: if it takes more than 90 seconds from glow to flame, the igniter is on its way out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eIs the 316489403 the bake igniter or the broil igniter?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThis is an important distinction, and there's genuine confusion in the industry about it. On many Frigidaire gas ranges, the 316489403 is used as the \u003cstrong\u003ebroil (upper) igniter\u003c\/strong\u003e with an approximately 14–16\" lead, while the \u003cstrong\u003ebake (lower) igniter\u003c\/strong\u003e is a different part — 5304506545 (which superseded 316489404) — often with a shorter lead. However, some sources and parts diagrams list them differently or even reversed, and on some models the 316489403 serves the bake position. The safest approach: look up YOUR specific model number to confirm which igniter you need, and compare your old igniter's lead length to the replacement. If your old igniter's leads reach a connector far from the igniter (14–16\"), the 316489403 with its 16\" lead is likely correct. Contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhy do I smell gas when I try to use the broiler?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eIf you smell gas when the broiler's safety valve opens but the burner doesn't light, it usually means the igniter isn't getting hot enough (or drawing enough current) to ignite the gas that's being released — so raw gas escapes before shutting off. This points to a weak igniter. To confirm which part is at fault: with the gas off, do a voltage test at the oven safety valve on the broil side — you should read between 3.0 and 3.3 VAC. If the voltage is correct but the burner won't light, the igniter is the problem. If there's no proper voltage, or the burner tube has spider webs or debris blocking it, address those first. Also inspect the gas supply tube from the safety valve to the burner for damage or loose connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhy do I need to handle the igniter so carefully?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThe igniter's heating element is made of silicon carbide, a material that's excellent at withstanding heat but is brittle and cracks easily from impact or flexing. Even touching the element with bare fingers can leave oils that create hot spots and shorten its life, and a small bump can crack it invisibly, causing premature failure. Always handle the new igniter by its metal bracket, never by the element or the ceramic block. When installing, be careful not to bump the element against the oven walls or burner. This care is the single biggest factor in whether your new igniter lasts years or fails early.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eIs this an OEM or aftermarket part?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThis is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards.
