The oven igniter is a silicon carbide heating element mounted next to the oven burner tube. When a bake or broil cycle is started, the igniter draws electrical current through the gas safety valve, which holds the valve open — and simultaneously heats to ignition temperature to light the gas. The igniter must draw at least 3.2 amps to hold the gas valve fully open; as the silicon carbide element ages and weakens, it draws progressively less current, causing the oven to take too long to light, not light at all, or glow without ever opening the gas valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flat-style igniter is rated 3.3–3.6 amps at 120V and measures approximately 4\" wide x 1\" high. It features a silicon carbide element, high-temperature ceramic housing, and metal bracket. The current part number W11590294 directly supersedes W11208965, W11613927, and W11506321 — all four are the same igniter across successive production revisions. It also replaces 4977065, AP7193166, PS16744629, and EAP16744629. Pre-attached wire connectors included. Note: do not touch the silicon carbide element with bare hands — skin oils cause premature burnout.

Always unplug the range and shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve before beginning any repair.

Do not restore power or gas until the repair is fully complete and all connections are confirmed secure.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-warning\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ Handle With Care — Do Not Touch the Igniter Element\u003c\/strong\u003e The silicon carbide igniter element is fragile and sensitive to skin oils. Handle only by the bracket and wiring — never touch the silicon carbide element itself. To install: unplug the range and shut off gas. Remove the oven racks and oven bottom panel to expose the burner assembly. Locate the old igniter mounted next to the oven burner tube. Disconnect the igniter's wire connectors and remove the two mounting screws securing the bracket. Note the wire routing inside the range cavity before removing — be careful not to let the burner wires fall back into the range body. Connect the new W11590294 igniter's pre-attached connectors to the matching wires from the range. Mount the new igniter in the same position with the two bracket screws. Reinstall the oven bottom panel and racks. Restore gas and power, then run a bake cycle and confirm the igniter glows and the burner lights within 60–90 seconds. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.\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\"\u003eWhat is the relationship between W11590294, W11208965, W11613927, and W11506321?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThese are all part numbers for the same gas oven igniter across successive production revisions by Whirlpool.

The gas safety valve requires at least 3.2 amps of current draw through the igniter to hold it open. As the silicon carbide element ages, it draws less current — eventually reaching a point where it glows visibly but no longer draws enough current to fully open the gas valve. If the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without the burner lighting, it needs replacement. The W11590294 is rated 3.3–3.6 amps, which is the correct range to reliably activate the safety valve on compatible models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhat is the difference between W11590294 and W11176454?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eBoth are flat silicon carbide oven igniters for Whirlpool-family gas ranges, but for different model series. The W11590294 is used on the WFG320, WFG505, and related entry-level Whirlpool and Amana gas ranges. The W11176454 (which replaces W10914411) is used on higher-end Whirlpool, Amana, and Maytag models across a broader range of WFG, MGR, and related series. They have the same amperage rating and igniter style but are not always interchangeable — always verify your model number before ordering to confirm which igniter is correct for your range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eHow do I test if the oven igniter has failed?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThe most practical test is observation: if the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without the burner lighting, the igniter is too weak. For a more precise test, use a multimeter in resistance mode — disconnect the igniter and measure resistance across the element. A working W11590294-style igniter typically reads between 40–100 ohms at room temperature. An open circuit (infinite resistance) means the element has burned through completely. You can also test in operation by measuring current draw at the igniter circuit — a reading below 3.2 amps indicates the igniter is too weak to reliably open the gas valve.\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.
