# How to Replace the Ignitor for a GE XL44 Gas Oven
The GE XL44 is a free-standing self-cleaning gas range manufactured for residential use. The ignitor utilizes the gas supply to produce heat inside the oven. Older gas ovens used a pilot light for this purpose that would stay on continuously. The ignitor only comes on when the oven is turned on. If the ignitor breaks or fails, the oven will not work. Replace the faulty ignitor to restore your GE XL44 oven to working order.
