Maytag Gas range

I have a Maytag gas range model MGS5870ADC. We recently noticed a gas smell when the oven is turned on. Right after a self cleaning process, the oven was not heating properly. Soon after the smell started. Any suggestions?

Had the same problem.... just replaced the ignitor in the bottom of the oven... worked like a charm. 10 minute fix

We had the same thing happen and had the Atco Gas company come out to look at it.  Our regulator was not working properly which caused CO to be relased.  We were told that the problem could be fixed for about $250-300 (CAN.) including parts and labour.

Oven will not reach desired temperature and slight gas smell

Just had same problem it was nice it waited until christmas dinner, all i did to resolve the problem was switch the upper broiler igniter with the lower one for the oven. I tuned on the oven & it fired right up i never use the broiler on my oven so itll buy me some time. So if you can get the broiler to light try that but i did have the same low temp. & the smell of gas. Good Luck

The Maytag gas oven Model: MGR4452BDW and Serial:

Are you sure it's clean/ Does the smoke smell like wire burning or plastic? Is there a chance that there is some left over spill just burning off?

My maytag gas oven model #MGR5755QDW makes a loud poof noise when first turned on. It doesn't do it all the time and it only happens when it is first lights.

You are getting a delayed ignition fom the oven burner. Either the ports on the burner near the ignitor are clogged or you have a weak oven ignitor. part # 12400035 @ $70.00
