Has anyone found another source besides BlueStar Parts for their ignitor replacement? Part number is 741801. BlueStar Parts wants $20 per ignitor. This is an easy homeowner repair.

We were down to two burners on our 2006 30' BS range after continuous clicking occurred even after ignition when we used the other two. Checked the manual, called BS, got right through and spoke to Matt. We pretty quickly established that it was a bum igniter module and that I could replace it myself if I was at all handy (Im OK handy). Ordered the part (4 burner igniter module) for $85 plus $10 shipping and it came in 3 days. I unplugged power to the range and got started. Wasn't quite sure how to take the front/control panel off and I hadn't gotten specifics from Matt, but it is pretty easy once you remove the knobs and remove three screws above the knobs and two below. The angles are a little tough to get to the upper screws but be patient. Take the drip tray out to give yourself room to get the lower screws. Once the screws are out, gingerly pull the panel forward and it should come off and hang by the wires connected to the switches on either end of the panel. You'll see the igniter module in the center back behind a neatly bundled cluster of wires. I had read a post above from annalbin about modifying a 6-burner module for a 4-burner range and this operation was apparently much simpler since I had the 4-burner module (though BS kindly included instructions for the 6-burner operation). The wires all connect by plugs, so I one-by-one unplugged from the old and re-plugged into the new so as to get the sequencing right. My wires were actually numbered. No cutting or stripping of wires was involved. Once they were all plugged back in to the new module, I unmounted the old module and screwed in the new (with 3 screws easily accessible from under the front 2 burners). Carefully pushed everything back into the space behind the control panel and replaced the panel and screwed it back in. My wife helped hold the panel in place so we could line up the center screw. Plugged the range in and she fired right up on all burners with now continuous clicking. Probably took an hour. Hopefully this igniter module will last for the life of the range; IÂll be disappointed if it doesnÂt. I thought the response from BlueStar (Prizer-Painter) was actually pretty good. I hate to read negative experiences detailed here and I hope this will help anybody who has a similar problem. Good luck!

Hi. We have a BlueStar RNB36 that we've had for over 12 years. It needs a new oven burner and surface igniter. It does a good job of getting up to temperature, but has a hard time staying there after you open the door. I have a pretty good idea on what to do to change the surface igniter but have never swapped out an oven burner. Looks pretty simple but wondering if any BlueStar owners have done this work themselves. I paid $100 to a repair company to just tell me that they need to be replaced and don't want to spend another $200-$300 for what appears to be a simple 20-30 minute job. I can also get the parts for a lot less than the repair company wants to charge. I've replaced the burner igniters myself and am pretty handy. Thanks.

I don't have a Blue Star but recently the oven my 18 year old DCS range had the same problem as yours. Since the company has long been sold & no one services them in my area , my choice was DIY or replace an otherwise good stove. According to everything I could find on google, the Oven Ignitor was bad (which supposedly is a common 'maintenance' type issue) and is an easy fix according to YouTube. It was - and now my oven works like new.
