I have had the same problem with my Amana range. I'd like to replace the igniter, but can't find the part. I assume, since my symptoms are the same as the others above (range top and broiler work, but the bake oven doesn't)that this should be my next step. Where are these available, on the internet, or otherwise?

** Amana ARG7301LL **

We would also need the unit's manufacturing number (MFG #) to properly identify the appliance. It will only be found right on the unit's model and serial number tag.

You can find tips for locating the model and serial number identification tag on your appliances at the following link:

** I'd like to replace the igniter. I assume, since my symptoms are the same as the others, that this should be my next step. **

*Inspecting* its operation and then *testing* it if necessary would be the usual way to proceed. Just replacing parts on a guess it not the recommended way to try to repair problems.

Your oven uses a 'hot surface' (glow ignitor) ignition system. You can read about how they are suppose to operate along with observations and tests that are needed to determine problems in such systems at the following link.

** can't find the part. Where are these available? **

You can see the bake ignitor used on at least one Amana ARG7301LL model at the following link:
