Troubleshooting common Hardwick range problems

Rather than guessing which part to replace, start by zeroing in on what’s causing the issue. Hardwick ranges were built for long-term reliability, but after years of use, some components can wear out or fail. Here are a few common problems you can diagnose at home.

Oven won’t heat

If your oven won’t heat, check for a burned-out bake element or weak igniter. In gas models, replace the igniter if it's broken. For electric ovens, test the bake element for continuity. If the element tests okay, inspect the control board for signs of damage.

Surface burner won’t ignite

When your surface burner won’t spark or ignite, clean the burner head and ensure the cap is properly seated. Moisture or residue on the igniter can also prevent sparking. If the burner still won’t light, check the igniter electrode or spark module for damage.

Radiant surface element not working

If your radiant surface element isn’t heating, inspect it for visible cracks or burns. A faulty surface element switch or wiring issue can also interrupt power. Testing each part with a multimeter can help pinpoint the problem.

Commonly replaced Hardwick range parts

• Oven door lock: If your oven won’t unlock after self-cleaning, the lock assembly may be jammed or broken. Replace the oven door lock to restore safe operation.

• Relay control board: If heating functions stop working, the relay board may not be sending power to the elements or igniter. Replace the relay control board to get your oven working again.

• Surface element switch: When a burner doesn’t respond to temperature settings, the switch may be faulty. Replace the surface element control switch to restore full control.

• Bake element: A burned-out bake element leaves your oven cold. Replace the exposed bake element if it’s damaged or fails a continuity test.

• Spark igniter switch: If burners won’t spark or won’t stop clicking, replace the spark igniter switch to fix the ignition system.
