Common Causes

Why Your Gas Oven Isn’t Working

Weak or Failed Igniter

The most common gas oven issue we see. A weak igniter glows but can’t generate enough heat to open the safety valve.

Safety Valve Not Opening

Often a downstream effect of a weak igniter, not a separate failure — the valve is working correctly by not opening for an igniter that can’t prove it’s hot enough.

Burner Issues

Clogged or misaligned burner ports can cause uneven heating or a burner that won’t light at all.

Faulty Temperature Sensor

Causes inaccurate oven temperature even though the burner is lighting and working normally.

Control Board Issues

Less common, but can affect ignition timing or temperature regulation on newer models.

A Safety Note

Why Gas Repairs Need a Professional

Unlike most appliance repairs, gas oven issues touch actual gas lines and combustion safety. Clicking with no ignition, a smell of gas, or a burner that won’t stay lit are all worth a professional look rather than DIY troubleshooting.

FAQs

That’s a classic igniter symptom — the igniter is trying but not generating enough heat to open the gas valve.

Is it safe to keep trying to light it myself?

Repeated attempts without diagnosis can be a safety concern. If it won’t light after one or two tries, turn it off and call for a diagnosis.

How much does igniter replacement typically cost?

It’s a routine, well-understood repair on nearly every gas oven brand — generally an affordable, straightforward fix.
