How To: Frigidaire/Electrolux Oven Safety Valve 3203459

[@danwebster7120]

One thing you failed to mention is: the new part is not adjusted for Nat or propane gas. A good tip is: sit the 2 parts side by side and make sure the orifice on the new part is at the same height as the old part. -PawPaw (retired appliance parts sales)

Thanks for that tip!

Is that the only orfice in the oven for the burner and broiler? For this stove model?

[@creekbottomtradingco.4556]

Just replaced a dual out out safety valve now one side flame is insanely high and full of carbon. Any chance you could tell me how to adjust the orifice?

[@Cassandra112]

yeah. just had to replace the safety valve on mine. "for LP gas installation, the hood should be screwed down against the hood pin. For natural gas installation, the hood should be backed off two or three turns from the hood pin." is the instructions. the hood in question is the orifice/nozzle. 1/2" wrench. hand tight.

Thanks for the video, now I know how to install our new safety valve once it comes in.

What symptoms do you encounter to determine there is a problem with the valve?

[@chuckhaller1519]

Whats happened to good old American pride. My grandmas stove still worked after 30 years. Now a 700.00 stove quits twice in 5 years.

[@amyhazelvang7198]

Could we use any kind of gas approved thread tape? Of it has to be a paste, due to the heat it may get while using the oven

[@kameron118]

Is that the only orfice in the oven for the burner and broiler? For this stove model? I’m converting from NG to propane. I already changed the stovetop but I haven’t found any orfices inside oven.

[@joerussell7856]

The safety valve I need to replace is a Y-30128-35 for a frigidair but it is on average 50 dollars more expensive than the GE Y-30128-77 which seems to look exactly the same (except for a small mounting bracket) and has all the exact same Voltage, Amps, PSI, etc. Can I just use the cheaper one? Thank you in advance!

great video and footage

Thank you. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

My Frigidaire oven is not lighting up. I thought it is igniter is going bad, but after replacing the igniter and it is still same, not lighting up. No gas coming out either. Anyone knows what happened? Thanks 🙏

[@slipperyslope5364]

check by your regulator at the back of stove there maybe a little flip switch which turns off the gas to the oven. If your oven don't have one you need to check the safety valve

[@TerryMorris-i9b]

You don't have to put no sealer on the gas tube to the safety valve ?

[@appliancepartspros]

What is your model number?

[@TerryMorris-i9b]

The video you showed didn't show you putting no sealer on the gas tube to the safety valve , just being safe

[@appliancepartspros]

It doesn't appear that it is required to use sealer for this part.

[@Hannibal54689]

I had both boiler and bake not work on my Frigidaire stove at the same time. Does it have something to do with the control panel or this safety gas valve?

[@Lando1020]

Possibly the "ignitor" as it signals to valve when to open and allow gas in. There are a couple ways to test ignitor. Do a quick search and you'll find em :)

[@ImTheeBatman]

@@Lando1020 would they igniter still heat up if the safety is broken

[@Lando1020]

@@ImTheeBatman it's possible. There are different ways the safety valve can fail. For example the safety valve on my stove needed to be replaced because it was not shutting off completely. It had no issue turning on the stove, oven or broiler. It just wouldnt close all the way when everything was off. I had to manually open/close valve at shutoff valve by wall. Safety valve replaced and issue was resolved.

[@ImTheeBatman]

@@Lando1020 Ok thanks I think the safety valve is the next part I have to try. I've replaced the igniter and temperature sensor and nothing. But my igniter still won't heat up.

[@jgeorge659]

@@ImTheeBatman I’m having this same exact problem. New thermostat and igniter but the igniter still does nothing. Did you resolve your issue? If so, what was the problem?

[@tiffanybaum6147]

Does the larger end also connect to the igniter?

[@appliancepartspros]

I'm sorry, I don't understand your question. The larger end of what?

[@tiffanybaum6147]

AppliancePartsPros the wire with the larger metal connecter that goes to the right side of the safety valve, does that wire also connect to the igniter.

[@appliancepartspros]

Oh, I see. Yes, it does. We have a video for the oven igniter where you can see this better here kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3OrY56ZfpqhftE

[@stevenmcclain6336]

Any way to "repair" this type of safety valve vs replacing it. I removed the valve then tapped all around it in an attempt to un-stick it. Then put it back in. Nothing. Then, without putting the bracket back on, tapped it while energized. Nothing. Any tricks besides replacing it?

[@danwebster7120]

this is non-repairable however if you do have continuity it may be your ignitor is weak or if water got into the valve its a dead duck.

[@ladonnad.steele2470]

Hard hits ruin them

[@dosmastrify]

8:00 you don't need new tape on the threads?

[@appliancepartspros]

There is no tape required for this repair.

[@amyhazelvang7198]

You forgot to seal the gas valve

[@chuckhaller1519]

The only place fridgidair is any count is in a recycling yard.

[@chuckhaller1519]

I won't ever buy a fridgidair nothing.ever again. Had a new refrigerator, it broke down with in two years. Ordered part installed it 3 years later broke again. Same thing . New dish washer broke in 4 years , bought a GE. And a new stove 5 years ago. And it broke in 3 years. Replace ignitor. And now tonight ignitor and safety valve. Broke. Now place to get parts on thanks giveing and can't cook turkey with 7 guests coming over. Fridgidair sucks. I wouldn't ever buy any thing fridgidair ever. Again. They will break or quit within first 3 years

[@CRAPO2011]

Did you get your frigidaire going again?
