Perfect oven igniter replacement for Maytag Model 6498XVB
My product parts manual calls for this exact part number for the oven igniter (and also the broiler igniter), and this item was an exact match including the power connector. I did not have to splice any wires or use wire nuts: the existing connector was a match to the existing power connector.
Installation and testing took 2 minutes, though there was some prep work (removing the panel behind my under-over storage drawer to disconnect the power connector made a rookie installation a lot easier).
This part costs $90 from Sears and has wildly different prices elsewhere. This is a much better price for something of this (limited) complexity.
Saved us $$$$ on appliance repair
Our 2002 oven started to experience symptoms which included taking a very long time to get up to temperature and once it did the maintained temperature setting was becoming inconsistent. Their wasn't much help in the manual other than an 800 number to call. When I switched the top and bottom igniter's around the oven started working normal again.
I did a search on Amazon's website for Maytag igniter and found one that matched the one I had taken out. The whole repair only took about 15 minutes. My wife is happy again and I don't have to pay a repairman or buy a new oven.
works
works, no issues..... always cross reference with other brands to make sure your getting the correct part which could be an issue if you get the wrong part.
