How to Install an Ignitor on an Amana Range

Amana oven ranges are manufactured in a wide range of both gas and electric models, each with a distinct set of features. Each gas model is equipped with an ignitor that heats up to spark the gas supply. If the ignitor breaks or fails, the Amana range does not produce any heat. Install a new ignitor in place of the defective part to restore your Amana range to proper working order.
