burner ignitor assembly. Access to the leads is
located behind the storage drawer area. Remove the
two (2) wire nuts securing the oven burner ignitor
leads to the violet wires. (Note the position and
configuration of ignitor assembly to the oven burner.)
5. Remove the screw securing the oven burner ignitor
assembly mounting bracket to the oven burner and
two (2) screws securing the ignitor bracket to the rear
oven wall.
6. Remove the entire oven ignitor assembly. Slide
ignitor to the left keeping ignitor assembly horizontal.
BROIL BURNER IGNITOR
1. Disconnect electricity at main disconnect plug.
2. Remove the oven door and oven racks.
3. Remove the two (2) hex head screws securing the
broiler burner ignitor shield bracket to the mounting
bracket attached to the cavity wall.
4. Pull ignitor slowly toward the front of the oven cavity
until the white wires connecting to the ignitor are
visible.
5. Grasp the one (1) "WHITE" ignitor lead and GENTLY
PULL until the wire nut and approximately four (4)
inches of the attached wire is inside the oven com-
partment. Repeat procedure for remaining ignitor
lead. The hole in the left side of the oven wall is large
enough to clean only "ONE" (1) wire nut at a time.
6. Remove the tape and wire nut from each of the ignitor
assembly lead wires.
7. Reverse procedure to reinstall the broiler burner
ignitor assembly. Reconnect wires tightly and retape
the wire nuts. Be certain to insert wire nuts through
