ACF3355AC (PACF3355AC1) Amana Range - Instructions

The website helped me to troubleshoot and identify my issue. They had a complete database to find my part and some instructions to how to install it.The repair was easy: 2 screws to remove at the bottom of the inside oven to remove the large plate. Then 2 more screws to remove the ignitor. Now to unplug the ignitor, I really had to access the back of the stove. i saw videos of people doing this from the front under the stove (not moving it). In my case, for this model, I had to move the stove to the "middle of the room", to access the back. Then 2 more screws to remove a small plate where I could see the cable to unplug.It was advised to close the gas faucet, and unplug the stove. I only unplugged the electricity, and it was fine. Then I tested the repair before I put back the large plate at the bottom of the oven.My only issue was the isolation "tube" going around the 2 wires ad connected to the new ignitor. I had them on my previous model, but not on the new model. So I managed to put it back to cover/isolate the new wires. Then everything worked again.

I took a jewelers screwdriver and completely cleaned out what was left of the old pads. Then applied a small amount of heat resistant rtv sealant to each hole, slid in the new pads and wiped off the excess. I let everything set overnight. The next day everything was solid. Job was complete. Note I've done this before and did not get the results I did this time. I believe it was the instruction that came with the pads and the tip-off to use the rtv.

got new horizontal igniter from Parts Select pulled stove out from wall unplugged old igniter took out bottom oven pan loosened two screws. used same two screws to put new igniter in place, put back bottom oven pan pushed bake button on front of oven and the old was lioke new again

took the bottom of oven out.Took the ignitor off the bar. Took the center panel off of the back of stove. Unplugged the ignitor, plugged new one in. Attached ignitor to bar.Put bottom panel back in stove. all done.

Insert one end of the railing into the slot in the back of the stove. Align the front end of the railing with the hole at the front of the stove. Align the roller with the hole. Secure the front end of the railing, roller ,and hole with the shoulder bolt using a 10mm wrench. Tighten just enough but don't over tighten.

The repair was easy. Used an ohm meter to find problem, if you follow wiring schematic , it is fairly easy to trace. Found open circuit across igniter. Repair was easy, only needed to remove part of back plate and bottom shel in oven and replace igniter, the repair took about 30minutes.

The broiler igniter and oven igniter are the same - WITH ONE MPORTANT DIFFERENCE- the plug! I tried to just switch them since we dont ever use the broiler but could not, due to the plug. I think that is part of planned obsolescence ! Anyway, I left the door and the power on - you guessed it, rebel! If you get a tingle from replacing this part you shouldnt be trying to fix it on your own! I removed the oven racks, took two small screws from rear of oven floor out, removed base plate. Two more small screws released the defective part. Pulled the plug wire through the back of oven and unclipped the connector. Plugged new part in, tucked the wires back into the insulation, replaced two screws on the igniter. Test fired oven- worked like a champ. Shut burner off, reinstalled base plate and screws and put the oven racks back in. Easy!

I was able to order the part I needed. The faulty pad had a broken stem.Several pads came in a bag so if I have the problem again I will have the parts on hand. I bought some RTV glue suitable for items at high temperatures; used a probe to make sure the hole in the grate was clear and clean and glued the new pad in place.
