As one of the most essential ignition components in a gas oven, the ignitor warms to the correct temperature to open the safety valve and ignite the gas burner.

Function & Importance
The primary purpose of the range ignitor is to generate the heat required to ignite the gas burner. A strong, consistent ignition ensures your oven reaches accurate cooking temperatures and maintains them throughout the cooking cycle. Because this part is subject to wear over time, replacing it at the first sign of malfunction is crucial for consistent performance and safety.
