ELECTRICAL SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS The following information applies to the gas range wiring: WARNING • A 3-wire, single phase, 120-volt, 60 Hz, AConly electrical supply is required on a separate 10-ampere circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse, or circuit breaker, is recommended. The fuse must be sized as per local codes in accordance with the electrical rating of the appliance specified on the model/serial rating plate, which is located on the frame behind the storage door panel.
Cooking Products Service Manual Original July, 1996 4321891 © 1996 Whirlpool Corporation Page 1-5 Once you are sure that the plug is polarized properly, perform the next step. WARNING 2. Personal Injury/Fire Hazard Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the grounding prong from the range cord. Failure to provide proper polarization may cause shock and fire hazard. Connect the power cord plug on the gas range to a 120-volt AC receptacle that is on a separately fused line.
GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS This range is factory set for use with natural gas. It is designed-certified by the American Gas Association (A.G.A.) for natural or L.P. gases with the appropriate conversion. The model/serial rating plate has information on the type of gas that can be used. If the type of gas listed does not agree with the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier. Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

Cooking Products Service Manual Original July, 1996 4321891 © 1996 Whirlpool Corporation Page 2-1 THEORY OF OPERATION THE COOKTOP BURNERS Refer to the illustration below while you read this description. At the same time, line voltage is applied through the ignitor switch v to the ignitor module w, which produces high-voltage pulses to all of the burner ignitors x.
IGNITOR SYSTEM OVERVIEW This gas range uses two Carborundum ignitors to provide a source for igniting gas from the bake and broil burners. Norton ignitors were previously used in the Whirlpool gas ranges, and both of these ignitors operate the same way. The only differences are in the design (see the illustrations), and in the current ratings. A Carborundum ignitor uses a round design, and limits the operating current flow to between 2.5 and 3.0 amperes. Carborundum Ignitor 2.5 - 3.
Cooking Products Service Manual Original July, 1996 4321891 © 1996 Whirlpool Corporation Page 2-3 As the ignitor heats up and its electrical resistance decreases, current flow increases through the bimetal arm heater inside the dual gas safety valve. When the ignitor becomes hot enough and its electrical resistance low enough, sufficient current is provided (2.5 to 3.0 amps) through the bimetal arm heater, to cause the arm to flex.
TROUBLESHOOTING THE IGNITOR SYSTEM Diagram B—Broil: With the EOC programmed for the Broil mode, you should obtain a reading of 120 VAC between P2-1 and Neutral. Refer to the illustration below while you read the following troubleshooting information. Ignitor Does Not Glow Disconnect or remove the ignitor and measure its resistance. Cold resistance should be between 50 and 150 Ohms. (The value of the resistance is not important as long as the ignitor is not open or shorted).
