James, thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. As a result, I was able to troubleshoot my own Whirlpool Accubake oven and make the decision to repair it myself. Other than my OEM part costing considerably more 7 years later, I still was able to save hundreds of dollars over buying a new oven. I was pretty excited when everything worked again after replacing the part. Thank you!

Thank you James for making this video. I was unable to get any oven repair people to come to my house due to Covid. My husband was able to repair our oven after watching your video, reading the comments, and doing a little research. (His career did not require mechanical skills, but he is a Navy vet, having served on a conventional submarine during Vietnam.) We have not eaten out since the Covid lockdown, so we really missed our oven. Thank you so much for helping this pair of seniors get through the pandemic!

Yes i agree whirlpool should take responsibility! Ive seen a number of the same issues on whirlpool ovens!

Just repaired my stove. Thanks for the video. My top 4 burners were working fine. But the bake/broil was not working. It would just make 2 clicks but no gas. Apparently the gas valve was bad. I took a gamble and ordered one. It came, I swapped it out fairly easily, and now the bake/broil works great. This video is exactly what I did

Thank you for your time and help so im able to fix my accubake oven, broiler, and warmer drawer all in one go 🙏

your a genius!!!! I now have a working oven. Thanks James!

Thanks! The valve now costs about $163, but, replacing it fixed our oven. Symptoms same as you, stove top good, oven no heat at all...

Awesome video, found this after I ordered an igniter, that being said I just ordered the safety valve and am actually excited to see this looks like a promising fix! I’ll let you know how it works out.... thank you again!!

Jeff looking forward to how it works out for you! Cheers!

Thank you so much! I had the same issue, and fixed it with no problems.

darn good video! gonna jump on mine in the next few days, now I have more confidence. thank you!😀

James, thank you very much. My sister has the same stove band and the same issue. It clicked 2 times and nothing happened after.

Having the same problem with my oven. Just ordered the replacement gas valve assembly W10293048. Here's hoping the replacement goes smoothly! EDIT: Worked like a charm. Oven is back up and running. Hello tater tots!

having the same problem with the same Whirlpool model!

It worked!!! Thanks for making this video!

Thanks for the video, fixed my stove with no issues. The solenoid was a little black when I removed the valve so it was easy to identify.

Nice video! I have the exact same valve to replace. Do you run Natural gas or Propane? Did the valve come with any instructions for converting to propane? Mine has nothing but I suspect something has to be changed to work for propane...

Highly recommend! !!!

Instead of having to"goose" it in and out, where the valve connects under the stove and goes into that small shroud, you can just take off the small set screw in the shroud and it all comes out very easily

Thanks! Even though video was reversed😂 Total cost for me with all parts $160. Better than $800 + for new.

I've had a few hvac guys tell me that you shouldn't use putty on gas lines, and thoughts on this? Thanks for the video!!

Cody Stegeman hey Cody, I did some research beforehand and the consensus was, some people swear by it, others think it’s not effective. I only did it because I could tell that was what was on the unit when I first took it off to trouble shoot it. I’ve since sold the house, but my renters said it worked fine for the 4 years they lived there. Hope this helps!

Only pipe threads require dope or tape. Flare fittings never use either.

Flared need a backup wrench no dope VERY IMPORTANT! . Compression single wrench no dope. I never use tape in 30 years. Dope gas fittings but not as much as the video 😁. Soapy water test when done. He didn't show testing for leaks.

Ik this is an old video and long shot but can the top oven burners still work and broil and oven doesn't have gas flowing through. and how many volts does it need for that particular one

@davejohnsonnola2758

Depending on your model, yes top burners will work, but if gas valve solenoid fails there will not be any spark signal sent to the bake or broiler igniters.

Hello! I have the same problem! ;-(

what the repair guy said I needed, $525 parts and labor

Don't you need any teflon tape on the front fitting?

@davejohnsonnola2758

the flare fittings should NOT use teflon tape or pipe dope. Only the pipe threads require either of those.

Never use Teflon tape for any pipe or appliance repairs it's not made for gas it's made for water pipe only.Use only gas type tape or pipe dope for gas. Teflon tape is paper thin when you screw on to the threads it will cut on the threads and cause micro holes and that could leak gas from the threads and you will not know until your house fills up with carbon monoxide and that can be serious to your health or death. Friend of mine learn that the hard way. And install carbon monoxide detectors. DO AT YOUR OWN RISK. This is Bad information you are telling to the Public. I'm a gas installer for 30 year's.

Hockey27tom the flex hose only goes through our cabinet, which in my home abides to local codes. However, I agree, flex through sheet rock would be a god damn nightmare.

What to do if you strip the threads? Gas line going into stove.

Emma Robbie Us on the line itself, or the controller? Either way, I’d play it safe and replace both, no amount of Plummer’s puddy or Teflon tape is going to airtight seal natural gas. It isn’t worth risking your family’s safety
