KGRS205TSS5 KitchenAid Range - Instructions

replaced light socket but did not repair problem. must have burned the motherboard.


pleased with service from your company.

I turned off the gas at the back of the oven & unpluged it. I then removed the 2 screws that secure the oven bottom plate to the oven. Once removed, that exposes the oven burner & igniter. There are 2 sscrews that secure the igniter to the burner; remove those screws, & pull the igniter wires out, to expose the connector. Unplug the connector, & the igniter is free. Just reverse the process with the new igniter.

removed door (no tools required - just lift and pull door out of range). removed front door panel with a screwdriver. removed/replaced door hinge with nutdriver. replaced front door panel with screwdriver. replaced door on range (again, no tools required). then installed tip-over bracket to floor/wall behind range. measured location, drilled pilot holes and installed wood screws into the floor and rear wall stud.

Open oven door remove trays.. remove floor of oven...remove single screw holding heat shield... unscrew two srews holding ignitor and unclip plastic...done..reverse to install

I first tested the broiler and that worked so we determined that the igniter on the bottom was not working. I removed the grill and then removed the igniter ( it is attached with two screws and unplugs from the back of the oven. I then looked up the part we needed on the part select website by model number and found the exact one ( the picture was very helpful) We received the part in one day installed it and the oven is working better than ever.

First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires.
Plug in the element put the wires back in the hole and screws the element on and that was it. Worked great.

The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.

seamed easy enough. Found the part and it looked identical, However I could not see the connector in the picture because the logo covered that part of the picture. Had to cut the connector off the old igniter and crimp it on to the new ingniter.

We took the interior floor out, pulled the stove away from counter, before that turned all electricity to the house off. Then we unscrewed the ignitor inside then underneath unplugged it and plugged in the new one, cleaned to oven and screwed the ignitor in and replaced the interior floor and we were done.

Replaced gas oven ignitor

Turned off CB for the oven,Remove the oven from the cabinet , remove the back of the oven, replaced the light Assembly. turned on CB for the oven, tested the light. and truned off the CB and replace the back and reinstalled the oven in the cabinet.

I opend the bottom cover, which had for screws then , opened 2 screws that atached the igniter to the main gas pipe and pulled the whole wiring out and disconected the wiring , ordered the igniter two days later, I put the whole thing together in less than 5 minutes . put back the cover. and I tried it , everything was cool , accutaly hot and working .

Once I got the new Igniter, I unplugged the old igniter and took two bolts out. Then remounted the new igniter and plugged it in. Works like a charm!!

My husband took the plastic cover off and took out old bulb and screwed in the new one. Then put the cover back on.

Removed bottom tray in oven, used nut driver to remove igniter, pulled oven out from wall and unplugged cord, did steps in reverse and repair was done. Very good tip on what was wrong with oven and how to diagnose the problem. I will defintly use your tips and purchase parts from you in the future if the need arises.
