Gas Valve for Range, Stove, and Oven
Frigidaire and Electrolux, known for manufacturing products for Sears-Kenmore, offer the gas valve with part number 3203702. This genuine OEM part is crafted for specific Kenmore wall ovens with model numbers including 79030172, 79030179, 79030522, 79030529, 79045132, and 79045139.
The component also fits select Frigidaire models, such as FGB24L2, FGB500C, GG94BLW, and TGB500C; Tappan models 12-2299, 12-5299, and TGB500C; as well as the White-Westinghouse model GB222LM0.
Functioning as a critical regulator, the valve manages the flow of gas to the oven burner. Replacement might be necessary when the igniter functions properly, but the gas valve remains closed, resulting in the burner not lighting.
Ensure safety by disconnecting electricity and shutting off the gas supply before installing this gas valve. After completing the installation, perform a comprehensive check for leaks in the gas line connections.
