		<description>My oven is slow to heat up, 45 min to 350. Ignitor and gas valve are both new. Flame is all blue at first and gets lazier with more yellow after 5-10 minutes. Gas is LP and ignitor reads 2.6-2.6 amps. Solutions??</description>

		<description>Hi Paula, 

It could be your ignitor. If you have a glow-bar ignition system, the glow-bar may be old and going bad. It will still glow, but not hot enough to open the gas safety valve. This is a safety feature that ensures there won’t be any gas available if it won’t ignite for sure. Try replacing the ignitor. It’s a relatively cheap part to replace.

Sometimes the oven thermostat or oven sensor can be calibrated wrong, or it may be faulty. If your particular range has an oven that uses an electronic thermostat, and the oven temperature is off by tens of degrees, you probably have to replace it.

On most units that have a mechanical thermostat, you can actually remove the thermostat knob, and adjust the knob to more accurately represent the actual setting of the thermostat. On many models, there&#039;s a screw on the back of the knob with a small calibration plate or ring. You can loosen this screw and adjust the calibration plate. Remember to tighten the screw again. If yours isn&#039;t adjustable, and the temperature is off by a large amount, you should just replace the thermostat.

Check the oven temperature. You can monitor the oven with a calibrating thermometer to check whether or not your thermostat is off. 

If you need help finding the correct part for your Gas Range, visit APWagner.com or call  at 1-888-279-2463
