How to Replace the Oven Igniter on a Frigidaire FFGF3054TS Oven & Range — Step-by-Step Instructions
Step-by-step instructions for the Frigidaire FFGF3054TS (gas range, sealed burners). Parts and access points can differ slightly by production year — the steps below cover the common layout for this platform, and the model notes flag its quirks.
This is a GAS appliance repair. Unplug the range AND close its gas shutoff valve before starting. Never touch the new igniter’s grey element with bare fingers — skin oils shorten its life. If any step feels unclear, this is a very reasonable repair to hand to a pro.
Tools
- Nut driver
- Small socket set
- Wire connectors (usually included with part)
Parts
- Igniter for your model — round or flat style, they are not interchangeable
Step by step
-
1 Cut power and gas
Unplug the range and turn the gas shutoff (behind the range or in the cabinet) perpendicular to the pipe. Confirm the cooktop won’t light.
-
2 Expose the burner tube
Remove the oven racks and the flat floor panel (a few screws) — the burner tube and its glow-bar igniter sit beneath.
-
3 Unbolt the old igniter
Two small screws hold it to the burner bracket. Follow its wires to the connector block or splice point.
🔧 Hand-off point: If your model’s wiring is spliced (no connector plug), you’ll be cutting wires and joining with ceramic wire nuts — a fine job for confident hands, a fair hand-off point otherwise. find a oven & range repair pro near you → -
4 Connect the new igniter
Plug or splice per the part’s instructions, handling the element only by its ceramic base. Mount it in the identical bracket position beside the burner tube.
-
5 Restore and test
Reassemble the floor panel, open the gas valve, plug in, and set a bake: glow within 30 seconds, flame within about 60. Watch the first full ignition with the door open.
Frigidaire FFGF3054TS notes & error codes
F10 on a Frigidaire is not automatically a control board. Check the sensor probe and its harness first — a probe reading low tells the board the oven is cold, so the board keeps heating, and the runaway code is the symptom rather than the fault.
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| F10 | Runaway oven temperature |
| F11 | Shorted key on the touch pad |
| F30 | Oven sensor probe circuit open |
| F31 | Oven sensor probe circuit shorted |
| F90 | Door lock motor fault |

Any hint of gas smell after the repair, an igniter that glows without flame, or splice wiring you don’t love — stop and get a pro. Gas margin-of-error is not like other appliances. If you'd rather skip it entirely, find a oven & range repair pro near you →
