LG gas oven igniter
Common for gas LG ranges when the igniter glows weakly or never opens the gas valve.

An LG range HE message should be handled as a heating-fault warning until the model manual confirms the exact code wording. On most no-heat complaints, the fault path is the same: reset once, confirm the oven is getting power, then test the igniter or bake element before blaming the control board.
Quick Triage
| Range type | First likely part | What you will notice |
|---|---|---|
| Gas range | Bake igniter | Igniter glows weakly, burner stays off |
| Electric | Bake element | Element is blistered, cracked, or cold |
| Either | Temperature sensor probe | Oven temperature is far off target |
| Either | Control board or relay | Loads test good, but no output power |
Step-by-Step Fix
- Turn the range off at the breaker for five minutes.
- Restore power and start a normal bake cycle at 350°F.
- If the display clears and the oven heats normally, watch the next few cycles.
- If the code returns, turn power off again before opening any panels.
- On a gas range, watch the bake igniter. A weak glow with no flame usually means the igniter is failing.
- On an electric range, inspect the bake element for blisters, cracks, or open spots.
- Test the oven temperature sensor at room temperature. Many oven sensors read near 1080 to 1100 ohms, but confirm the model service sheet.
- Check harness plugs for heat damage, loose terminals, or pinched wires.
- Price the control board only after the heating load and sensor circuit test correctly.

When to Call Service
Call an appliance technician if the range is hardwired, the breaker trips, the oven has burn marks behind the panel, the gas burner does not light safely, or live voltage testing is needed. Ranges use high voltage and gas connections, so stop if the checks move beyond visual inspection and plug-in part replacement.
