Surface Igniter NR024KX VIKING Replacement igniter is made of the same materials and specifications as the OEM requires. The igniter is CSA-approved RoHS and Reach Complaint; It comes with the Prop 65 Warning. The NR024KX replaces |PB040001 | 065650-000 | AP5315579 | 702263 |SGR40001 | GR40001 | The Viking range replacement igniter kit is used to light the oven burners. The NR024KX Viking Range igniter comes with OEM terminals. Wire leads are 12″ long. The bake and broil igniters are mounted to the bake and broil burner and ignite the gas flowing into the burner. During a bake or broil operation, current flows through the igniter, gas valve, and thermostat to neutral. As the igniter starts heating and glowing, its internal resistance decreases, allowing more current to flow through the bake or broil circuit. When the circuit current reaches approximately 3.2 to 3.6 amps, the bi-metal arm in the gas valve flexes, opening the valve, and allowing gas to flow to the burner when it is ignited by the glowing ignite. The ignite will glow anytime the bake or broil burners operate and cycle on and off with the thermostat cycling contacts. This Viking Range Replacement Igniter is Used on all Viking Glow Bar Ignition Systems. If you need to replace this Igniter for the Bake function, we highly recommend replacing BOTH Bake Igniters simultaneously, never solo replace. It is also generally recommended to change BOTH Bake Igniters every 3 – 5 years for BEST performance. The connector plug might need to be removed and spliced to the oven wiring using porcelain wire nuts. Before you begin this repair, disconnect the power source from the dryer, and shut off the gas supply.
