Oven and burners wouldn't light
Easy repair. I removed the module housing at the back of the stove (two screws) and slipped the wires off the old spark module (I had to use pliers to gently pull one or two wires off--it's an old stove). The existing wires slipped right on the new module. I did have to use the mounting adapter that came with the kit, but that was the fiddliest part of the whole repair. It took me longer to move the stove out and back than it did to do the repair.

Self tapping screws stripped out, one broke in mounting hole
Punched out broken screw. Drilled out damaged threads to same size as igniter mounting holes. I used nuts, bolts and lock washers to mount igniter. Would have been very easy if mounting screws had come out. Video very helpful.

Oven wouldn't heat/ turn on
If you watched the video on installing the part it IS that easy. The connector piece matched exactly with what my oven already had so it was as simple as disconnecting the old piece and plugging in the new piece. There was no hidden challenges or obstacles to overcome. The oven works perfectly fine there was a slight smell when I first turned on the oven but I am attributing that to a new part. The smell did go away. I am 24 years old and a female who has limited knowledge in electrical/oven work.

Gas range and top oven does not light up
I pulled out the gas range, unplugged the unit from the outlet. Unscrewed about two panels, one is the black cardboard panel located on top, then the aluminum main panel.
Located the spark module, unscrewed the unit from resting plate. Did not change the plate, although the new unit came with a new one, but it doesn't fit. So I just rested the new one on the old plate.
Pulled each wire slowly out and inserted it onto the new spark module.
Screwed in all the panels back and returned the stove to its proper place.
The range now works as well as the oven, but my broiler still does not light up.

Oven burner would periodically go out and re-light
The ignitor is held on by two screws which were rusted in place. When I tried to remove them, the screws became stripped and had to be cut off.
Once the part was free, the rest of the repair went quickly . At that point:
- Pull the element leads enough to get to the plastic connector
- Disconnect the old part
- Connect the new part
- Re-attach to the bracket with new screws.

Burner head were clogged with grease
First I removed the old burner head by twisting it counter clockwise by using wide channel lock pliers. When It completely came off, the burner head had deteriorated so much that it almost came apart. When I took off the 2 wires from the burner head it also easily came apart. The burner-head was in really bad condition. I cleaned the whole area and connected the 2 wires to the new burner head and hand tightened in a clokwise direcrtion. It took 20 minutes to install.

Burner heads were rusted out, releasing flames from underneath and also clogged with carbon dust
Very simple! Unscrewed the burner heads with a simple twist, unplugged the two wires from the old head, plugged them into the new one, then screwed that back in. The flames are MUCH better - more efficient and safe. thank you! ( Only issue was when we ordered we didn't see a choice of color and the new ones are different, but it really doesn't matter on an older stove anyway.)

Igniter glowed but oven would not light
The repair was straight forward. Turn off gas, unplug stove. Remove the oven door by opening slightly and lifting straight up. The bottom plate lifts from the back. Remove two screws and plug; install new unit. Turn everything back on; proceed with baking...

The problem was exactly what was described on your site.
I pretty much did the repair the same way the video described it. I first turned off the gas valve and disconnected the power. Then removed the two screws holding in the burner tube and removed it. Then I unplugged the old igniter. The screws were a bit corroded so I gave them a little spray of liquid wrench. They came right out them. After removing them I replaced the igniter plugged it in. Then I put the wire through the hole in the wall of the oven. Replaced the insulation that was included in the kit. Replaced the burner tube on the venture. And reinstalled the screws. It was pretty cut and dry. The glow plug had the burner fired up in 15 seconds.

gas burners would not light with electric ignighters
using the diagram shown on line Looked up the ignition module and ordered it by phone. Received it the next day and installed it within the hour. Previously I had called the repairman and he said it would be a couple of weeks before he could look at it and a service call was $75 plus parts..I fixed it for the cost of the module $34. I am very satisfied.
