3. ഉൽപ്പന്നം കഴിഞ്ഞുview
The Gas Oven Range Ignitor is a critical component responsible for igniting the gas in your oven's burner. It operates by heating up to a high temperature, which then ignites the gas flowing from the burner.

കുറിപ്പ്: Always refer to your specific oven model's service manual for detailed instructions and safety precautions. The following is a general guide.
നിങ്ങൾക്ക് ആവശ്യമായേക്കാവുന്ന ഉപകരണങ്ങൾ:
- സ്ക്രൂഡ്രൈവർ (ഫിലിപ്സ് കൂടാതെ/അല്ലെങ്കിൽ ഫ്ലാറ്റ്ഹെഡ്)
- Nut Driver or Socket Wrench
- Wire Strippers/Cutters (if needed for wire nuts)
- Multimeter (for testing, optional)
ഇൻസ്റ്റലേഷൻ ഘട്ടങ്ങൾ:
- Disconnect Power and Gas: Before starting, ensure the oven's power supply is disconnected at the circuit breaker and the gas supply valve is turned off.
- Access the Ignitor: Depending on your oven model, you may need to remove the oven door, bottom panel, and/or burner assembly to access the ignitor.
- Locate the Old Ignitor: The ignitor is typically mounted near the gas burner tube.
- വയറിംഗ് വിച്ഛേദിക്കുക: Carefully disconnect the electrical wires leading to the old ignitor. Note how they are connected. You may need to cut the wires if they are hard-wired, or simply unplug a connector.

- പഴയ ഇഗ്നിറ്റർ നീക്കം ചെയ്യുക: Unscrew any mounting screws holding the old ignitor in place and carefully remove it.
- പുതിയ ഇഗ്നിറ്റർ ഇൻസ്റ്റാൾ ചെയ്യുക: Mount the new ignitor in the same position as the old one, ensuring it is securely fastened.
ചിത്രം 4.2: താഴെ view of the ignitor showing mounting holes. These holes are used to secure the ignitor to the oven's internal structure.
- വയറിംഗ് ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Connect the new ignitor's wires to the oven's wiring. If using wire nuts, ensure a tight and secure connection.

- ഓവൻ വീണ്ടും കൂട്ടിച്ചേർക്കുക: Reinstall any panels or components that were removed.
- Restore Power and Gas: Turn on the gas supply and then restore electrical power to the oven.
- ടെസ്റ്റ് ഓപ്പറേഷൻ: Test the oven to ensure the ignitor is functioning correctly and the burner ignites properly. Listen for the click of the gas valve opening and observe the ignitor glowing before ignition.
5. പ്രവർത്തനക്ഷമത
The gas oven range ignitor serves as both an ignition source and a safety device. When the oven is turned on, the ignitor receives electrical current and begins to heat up. As it reaches a sufficient temperature (typically around 1800-2500°F), its electrical resistance drops, allowing a larger current to flow. This increased current signals the gas valve to open, releasing gas to the burner. The hot ignitor then ignites the gas. If the ignitor does not reach the proper temperature, the gas valve will not open, preventing unignited gas from accumulating, thus acting as a safety interlock.

6. പരിപാലനം
The gas oven range ignitor is a wear item and generally does not require routine maintenance. However, periodic inspection can help identify potential issues before they lead to complete failure.
- വിഷ്വൽ പരിശോധന: During any oven cleaning or service, visually inspect the ignitor for cracks, discoloration, or signs of excessive wear. A healthy ignitor should glow brightly and consistently.
- വൃത്തിയായി സൂക്ഷിക്കു: Ensure the area around the ignitor is free from food debris or grease buildup, which can interfere with its operation.
- പ്രൊഫഷണൽ പരിശോധന: If you suspect an issue, it is recommended to have a qualified appliance technician inspect the ignitor and oven system.
7. പ്രശ്നപരിഹാരം
If your oven is experiencing ignition problems, the ignitor is a common component to check. Always ensure power and gas are disconnected before performing any checks.
| പ്രശ്നം | സാധ്യമായ കാരണം | പരിഹാരം |
|---|---|---|
| Oven not heating or heating slowly | Weak or failing ignitor. Ignitor not drawing enough current to open gas valve. | Test ignitor resistance with a multimeter (refer to oven service manual for correct values). Replace if out of specification or if it glows dimly. |
| Oven burner not igniting, but gas is present | Ignitor not glowing or glowing intermittently. | Check electrical connections to the ignitor. Ensure ignitor is securely mounted. Replace ignitor if it does not glow at all or glows very weakly. |
| Oven burner ignites, then goes out | Ignitor not maintaining sufficient temperature or current to keep gas valve open. | ഇഗ്നിറ്റർ മാറ്റിസ്ഥാപിക്കുക. |
