What it usually means when your GE oven is not igniting (gas)

Most gas ovens fail to ignite because the igniter is too weak to open the gas valve (even if it glows).

What a technician checks on site

  • Measure igniter current draw (amperage test)
  • Verify gas valve operation and supply pressure
  • Check flame sensor / safety circuit (if applicable)
  • Inspect control board ignition output
