SELF-CLEAN CONTROLS
The self-Clean controls for self-cleaning the lower compartment consist of the clock timer, the clean portion of the
thermostat, and the gas valve assembly.
PROBLEMS POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTION
1. Oven Burner/Broil Burner will
not turn on. "Selector" switch set
on BAKE/BROIL. Thermostat set
at 350°/Broil. Door latch in cook
position.
NOTE: The flat type ignitor
used in these models has an
operating current range of from
3.2 amps A.C. to 3.6 amps A.C.
The gas valve is calibrated to
open at slightly over 3.2 amps,
since the ignitor will be hot
enough to ignite any gas flowing
from the burner. The current
can be checked using a
clamp-on ammeter or an in-line
ammeter. If the current does not
reach 3.2 amps, replace the
ignitor.
