Where to find model number on Frigidaire gas range?
On the Frigidaire gas range model FPGF3081KFN, the model and serial number identification plate is on the right-hand surface of the oven front frame. Open the storage drawer, warmer drawer, or broiler drawer to see the plate; the model number is printed there (see the installation guide).
- Turn the oven light on and use a flashlight for easier reading.
- Pull the storage or warmer drawer fully open (or open the broiler drawer, if equipped).
- Look at the right side of the oven front frame for the identification plate.
- Write down the model number, serial number, and any lot number/letter.
- Use that exact model number when ordering Frigidaire range parts.
The plate typically includes key details used for parts lookup and service.
| Item on plate | What it’s used for |
|---|---|
| Model number | Ensures you get parts that fit your exact range |
| Serial number | Helps match production details for service |
| Lot number/letter | Helps narrow down version changes within the same model |
| Fuel and pressure info | Confirms how the range was set up from the factory |
Frigidaire ranges can have small design changes within the same series. Using the exact FPGF3081KFN model number from the identification plate helps us match the correct igniter, temperature sensor, burner parts, and other components the first time.

Can I look up Frigidaire parts by model number?
Yes. For your Frigidaire gas range model FPGF3081KFN, looking up parts by the exact model number is the most reliable way to match compatible replacement parts, diagrams, and service information, because part designs can change across similar-looking ranges.
On this range, the identification plate is on the right-hand surface of the oven front frame. Open the storage drawer, warmer drawer, or broiler drawer (depending on your configuration) to access it; then record the model and serial number.
- Open the drawer below the oven to expose the front frame
- Look on the right-hand side of the oven front frame for the ID plate
- Write down the model number (FPGF3081KFN) and serial number
- Include the lot number or letter if shown (helpful for exact part matching)
- Use that full information when ordering parts or requesting service
Model-number search narrows results to parts that fit your exact Frigidaire range configuration (burner ratings, fuel type, and factory gas pressure setup are tied to the ID plate information).
| What you search | What you typically get | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Model number (FPGF3081KFN) | Model-specific parts list and diagrams | Correct fit and compatibility |
| Part ID/part number | One specific replacement part | Reordering the same part |
| Description only (example: “igniter”) | Many similar options | Early troubleshooting only |
- Match the full model number exactly (letters and numbers matter)
- If you are replacing an oven ignition part, confirm whether you need a bake or broil style igniter
- Compare your old part’s markings to the listing when possible
- Use the troubleshooting section in the FPGF3081KFN owner’s manual to rule out simple issues first
Using the model number prevents wrong-part returns and helps ensure safe, correct operation on a gas range, especially for ignition and temperature-control components.

Why does my Frigidaire gas range smell like gas?
If your Frigidaire FPGF3081KFN gas range smells like gas, treat it as a potential leak first: stop using the range and follow the “What to do if you smell gas” safety steps in the FPGF3081KFN installation guide. If the smell happens only during ignition, it often points to delayed ignition or incomplete combustion.
- Turn all burner knobs to OFF.
- Do not try to light any appliance.
- Do not touch electrical switches or use a phone in the building.
- Call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone and follow their instructions.
- If you cannot reach the gas supplier, call the fire department.
A brief odor at startup can happen if gas flows before ignition, but a strong or persistent smell usually means ignition is slow or the flame is not burning cleanly.
Common causes on gas ranges like the FPGF3081KFN:
- Weak oven igniter causing delayed ignition (bake or broil)
- Dirty or clogged burner ports causing uneven flame
- Misaligned burner cap or burner head on the cooktop
- Gas valve or regulator issues affecting gas flow
- Temperature problems that cause longer burner on-times
If troubleshooting points to ignition or flame issues, these model-compatible parts are common suspects:
| Symptom | What to check | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Oven takes long to light, then “whoosh” | Oven igniter | Tappan range oven burner igniter 316489403 |
| Oven temp swings, long heat cycles | Oven temperature sensor | Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000 |
| Cooktop clicking but poor ignition | Spark/ignition system | Range spark module 5304508269 |
A gas smell can signal a condition that risks fire or explosion. Even when it is “only during ignition,” delayed ignition can worsen quickly and can also damage components like igniters and gas valves.
For operating and safety guidance specific to your range, use the FPGF3081KFN owner’s manual.
