SF380PEWN0 Whirlpool Range - Instructions

bought used, oven light was damaged from previous repair attempt, without installation instructions removing the fixture was tricky, had to bend the housing tabs inward w/screwdriver to release fixture (more damage). once out the new fixture went in place quite easily, wires simply hook up, re install back panel, re-connect power, Have a nice Day!

Removed old igniter and replaced with new one.Tested oven and it went on. You need a phillips screwdriver to remove two screws and a small socket for the third screw to remove the igniter cage. Then pull out the wires from under the oven and disconnect. Reverse procedure to install new igniter. Reuse original connectors. Be very careful with the igniter because the tip is very fragile and can break easily.

Discriptions provided by others in this section made it easy and there is little additional insight I can add. The part was delivered the next day. I don't reply to these requests for comments, as providing what I paid for is the expectation. But, this outfit did a good job.

Take top cover off take gear box cover off. check all gears for wear and clean all of above. Be sure you identify all parts needed before you order plus assembly grease!

Turned off gas supply and power. Removed four wires by hand and with a needle-nose pliers after making simple schematic. Disconnected gas supply to valve and valve outlets to broiler and oven. Also loosened other end of gas supply (on regulator) to swing it out of the way. Tools used....open end wrenches. Removed two nuts on left side of valve holding valve to bracket. Tools used...1/4" socket set. Since the nuts holding the right hand bracket were difficuly to reach, I removed the bracket, allowing the valve to be removed. Tools used....1/4" socket set. I then removed the right hand bracked and mounted it on the new valve. I then installed the new valve in the reverse order. I then opened the gas supply and tested the inlet connection(s) for leakage with soapy water. Perfect seal. I turned on the power, set the clock, and tested the oven and broiler. Worked perfectly. The only thing that prevented this from being a really easy job was the location of the valve....in cramped location.

Used grinder to cut the screws. All 4 screws had to be cut to remove from burner assembly. Once this was acomplised it went fast with no problems

First, my wife and I pulled out the oven from wall to disconnect electric plug and, also with a wrench; I shut off the gas connection on the wall. I then removed front door of the oven by pulling up on door to have easy access to lower part of oven, and then removed pan to get to Igniter. Removed the three screws on cage that supported the Igniter and, I also had to remove several screws to the manifold and bottom pan that supports the manifold so that I could disconnect Igniter. I then was able to pull out old Igniter and, reconnect the new one. After that, I reinstalled everything in reverse. Before pushing oven back into wall; we made sure the new igniter worked. It worked just great. My wife and I were so happy and proud that we done it our self, and not have to call someone to do it for us. It took me and, my wife about an hour and a half to complete the job. I believe the reason it took us as long as it did was because we really didn't know what to expect. Now that we know; I am sure that we could do it again in 30 to 45 minutes. Dave & Marsha; 8/23/2013

Replaced the igniter. Took out the 20 screws holding the bottom plate of the oven. Removed the igniter and gas tube mounting screws and bracket. Took off the wire nuts that attached igniter to stove wiring. Carefully installed new ignitor, using reverse of the steps above. Igniter tip is very fragile, so beware as you handle. All went very well, and oven now works like a charm

Removed the oven doors for access; removed the burner onto which the ignitor is attached, disconnected the electrical wires (power off). Reversed the procedure to put it back together. We are now cooking with gas again. Thanks. Fletcher
