PCFG3078AFB Frigidaire Range - Instructions

Tore the oven apart and replaced the igniter, then put the oven back together. Perhaps if Frigidaire manufactured an appliance that lasted longer than three years this wouldn't have been necessary. This is the second Frigidaire range that only lasted three years. Believe, the next stove we buy will definitely not be a Fridgidaire!

Unplug oven to prevent shore. Make sure to purchase ceramic wire nuts to complete repair. No access to able to plug in the plug. Need to unscrew the plates in the bottom of the oven to get to the igniter. Cut the plugs off and use the ceramic wire nuts to connect the wires. Put make together. It took a Month for the part to arrive.

The light apparatus was loose behind the panel. Remove the remaining part of the lens. Install the new lens from the outside of the panel and hold it in position, protruding into the inside of the panel. Slide the light apparatus onto the lens from the inside, allowing the bracket to hold it in place - it will be spring loaded, which will hold it in place.

I couldn't unscrew the leveling foot because it was rusted and corroded. The bracket holding it was easy to remove so I took the bracket with the corroded foot off and replaced it with the new foot and bracket. Very simple. I made sure I oiled it so it wouldn't rust again.

Watched the repair video on your web site. Used the video as a step by step guide in the actual repair.

First of all I am not Betty, I am her husband. Second I and a friend pulled the range out of the countertop (which was not necessary). The top can be raised on it hinges and the plate under the burners can be removed by taking out 8 to 19 screws and there is the thermostat looking at you. After doing this once and knowing where the thermostat is, the job could be done in less that an hour.. INSTRUCTIONS: Turn OFF the circuit breaker. Remove the burners. Remove the plate under the burners. Change the thermostat (making sure to place in correct direction as the one removed). Reassemble, turn on circuit breaker, test oven heat.

I searched the web for a replacement and Parts Select had a picture and part number for the exact same probe. I ordered the probe and it arrived very quickly. The problem was that the probe I received didn't match the picture as shown on the web site. Instead I received a probe that was a different color and the actual probe was about 2" shorter than the one I was replacing. I called customer service and was told that the probe I received was the new version that the older version was discontinued. If they had updated their pictures on the web site I would not have ordered the probe. Parts Select customer service did apologize for the issue and offered to have me return for a refund.

I will order from Parts Select but I will call first to verify that the item pictured is the actual item being shipped. Parts Select please update the part pictures to show the actual items being sold.

moved the range out to access back
removed 5 screws from back panel
removed 1 screw from thermostat installed new one
replaced screws, done in 20 minutes
problem solved

We carefully pulled the old seal out of the door ( staples hold it in place).Then took the replacement and laid it around the door. Starting at one side we adjusted the seal and pushed the staples into place. Making sure we folded the ends, we used a spoon to push them into the slots.

Went well, and working thank you ??

I followed the video on the website. The probe is on back of the oven. Just unplug part and replace. That was not our fix all though as I later found that the igniter was not working. The igniter is also an easy fix but you access it through the front of the oven. Also an easy swap.

Oven is working great now.

Our issues kind of fell between two of the descriptions so I went with high percentage cheaper fix first.

If your oven is intermittingly getting hot or to temperature of 100, it is probably the igniter.

Have used PartsSelect for Washing Machine, Dryer, Refridgerator and now the Range. Super easy to figure out needed parts and videos walk you through the repair.

Thanks

Used instruction video & replaced part.

Unplugged oven range, removed oven door (makes the work much easier, you can find how on YouTube) removed two bottom panels. Removed warming drawer to gain access to wires. Traced wire from ignitor unplugged it. Unscrewed ignitor from bracket. Carefully screwed new ignitor onto bracket. Plugged it in. Plugged in oven range. Turned on oven to verify proper operation. Turned off oven once it lit for a few seconds then replaced warming drawer, bottom panels and oven door.

I followed the guidance of the YouTube video presented by Steve from your company. It was very easy and direct. The only issue I had was disconnecting the igniter clip, once I wa able to remove the old one, everything else was simple. I really appreciate this video because it saved me a ton of money for repair cost. I will use this process again even if it is my refrigerator because it is a Frigidaire also. Thanks to Steve who was very direct, on point, and patient with making this repair video. Kudos!

first the temperature sensor then the igniter. started to do the igniter by using common sense then I used YouTube which made it a lot faster.
the temperature sensor installs from the back of the stove, the igniter installs from thr front ie, the drawer and inside oven.
