74007498 - Whirlpool Oven Igniter

This Oven Igniter (74007498) is a genuine part manufactured by Whirlpool, ensuring compatibility and optimized performance for Whirlpool ovens. It's also compatible with various other brands, including Samsung, KitchenAid, Maytag, Admiral, Amana, Jenn-Air, Crosley, and Magic Chef. Commonly known as a "range oven burner igniter," it is also known as an "oven burner igniter" and is designed for vertical mount bake and broil applications. This igniter comes with its own metallic mounting bracket and a 7-inch-long dual wire lead with a plastic plug. If your oven is not heating evenly, giving off no heat or very little heat, or if a smell of gas is present, it might be time to replace your igniter. Sometimes, even if the igniter is glowing, it could still be defective. To replace, you'll need a 1/4-inch nut-driver and a 5/16 nut-driver. Start by removing the oven door and racks, then use the nut-driver to unscrew the igniter. Before purchasing, please verify your device's model number to ensure compatibility.
