How do I tell what model my Frigidaire stove is?
Your Frigidaire gas range model number is printed on the appliance’s serial plate. On model FFGF3013LWB, the serial plate is typically located in the broiler drawer or storage drawer area; pull the drawer out and look for a sticker or metal tag.
Check these common serial plate locations:
- Inside the broiler drawer (some models)
- Inside the storage drawer (some models)
- On the frame around the drawer opening (front lower frame)
- On a side wall just behind the drawer cavity
- On the oven frame behind the door opening (less common on this style)
Tip: Use a flashlight and take a photo so you can zoom in on characters like 0 vs O.
Record both numbers exactly as shown:
| Item | What it’s used for | Example format |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | Ensures you get the correct parts and diagrams | FFGF3013LWB |
| Serial number | Helps match production run details for service and compatibility | Letters + numbers |
Parts for ranges can vary by production run, even within the same Frigidaire series. Having the exact model number (and serial number when possible) helps us match the right igniter, control board, oven sensor, and other gas range parts the first time.
For the serial plate location and where to record the model and serial numbers, use the FFGF3013LWB owner’s manual.

Can I look up Frigidaire parts by model number?
Yes. For your Frigidaire gas range model FFGF3013LWB, looking up parts by the full model number is the most accurate way to match the correct replacement part, because it filters results to the exact version of your range and its compatible components.
The model and serial tag is typically located where you can see it with the drawer open. On this range, check the broiler drawer or storage drawer area as described in the FFGF3013LWB owner's manual.
- Pull the broiler or storage drawer fully open
- Look for a rating plate on the frame or inner side panel
- Copy the model number exactly as printed (letters and numbers)
- Keep the serial number too; it helps confirm production details
Once you have FFGF3013LWB, use it to narrow parts to your exact Frigidaire range configuration.
- Search using the complete model number (not a partial)
- Match the part by name and ID, then confirm it fits your symptom
- Compare your old part’s markings and connector style before ordering
- Use the manual’s “Before you call” section to rule out simple issues first
| Symptom | Common part to check | Example part for FFGF3013LWB |
|---|---|---|
| Oven will not ignite or heats slowly | Oven igniter | Range oven burner igniter 5304509706 |
| Oven light is out | Light bulb | Appliance light bulb, 40-watt 316538904 |
| Baking temps seem off | Temperature sensor | Range oven temperature sensor 316233903 |
Frigidaire ranges can look similar across model families, but burner systems, control parts, and wiring can vary. Using FFGF3013LWB prevents ordering a part that mounts differently, has the wrong connector, or is calibrated for a different control.

How to remove the top of a Frigidaire gas range?
On the Frigidaire FFGF3013LWB gas range, we do not remove the cooktop as a service step; this model’s cooktop is not removable. For access needed for most repairs, we remove surface parts (grates, caps, burner heads) and use the access points described in the FFGF3013LWB installation guide.
- Turn off electrical power to the range at the breaker.
- Shut off the gas supply valve.
- Remove the burner grates.
- Lift off the burner caps.
- If you need deeper access at a burner, remove the burner head mounting screws (some versions use square-drive or 3/16-inch hex-head screws).
- If your repair involves gas conversion or regulator access, remove the storage drawer or warmer drawer to reach the regulator area.
| Task | Typical access method | What you remove |
|---|---|---|
| Clean or inspect burners | From the top | Grates, caps, burner heads |
| Replace a weak/no-spark igniter at a burner | From the top | Burner head (after removing screws) |
| Access pressure regulator area | From the front/lower area | Storage drawer or warmer drawer |
| Oven won’t heat (ignition issue) | From inside/bottom service area (varies) | Often involves burner/igniter components |
If the goal is to fix ignition or uneven flames, the issue is usually in one of these areas:
- Burner head not seated correctly on the igniter
- Food spill blocking burner ports
- Loose burner head screws causing misalignment
- Failed spark module or switch harness
- Weak oven ignition (for bake) that points to the igniter
If the oven burner is not lighting reliably, a common replacement part is the range oven burner igniter 5304509706.
Trying to pry up a non-removable cooktop can bend the top, damage igniters, or create a gas leak risk. Using the correct access method protects the burner alignment and keeps the gas system sealed.

Why does my Frigidaire oven smell like gas?
A gas odor from your Frigidaire FFGF3013LWB while the oven is trying to light usually points to delayed ignition (gas flows briefly before the burner fully ignites). If you smell gas when the oven is off, treat it as a supply-side issue and stop using the range until it’s corrected.
- Only during preheat or right after you turn Bake on: delayed ignition or incomplete combustion is most likely.
- Any time, even when the oven is off: a gas leak or valve/regulator issue is most likely.
- With a yellow, lazy flame or soot: airflow or burner port restriction is likely.
- Ventilation and airflow: Keep the oven vent area clear; blocked airflow can worsen combustion and odors. See the safety and venting notes in the FFGF3013LWB owner’s manual.
- Oven ignition: If the igniter is weak, the burner can take too long to light, letting gas build up briefly.
- Burner condition: Food spills or debris in burner ports can cause uneven ignition.
- Gas pressure regulation: Incorrect pressure can affect flame quality and ignition timing.
| Symptom | Most likely area | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Gas smell only while lighting, then normal | Weak oven igniter | Range oven burner igniter 5304509706 |
| Yellow flames, poor ignition consistency | Regulator or supply pressure | Range pressure regulator 5304521339 |
| Oven won’t light or lights intermittently | Burner/ignition system | Range oven burner 316114300 |
A persistent gas smell is not normal operation. Delayed ignition can worsen over time and can also lead to poor baking performance. Keeping vent ducts unobstructed and addressing ignition issues early helps the range operate safely and consistently.
- Do stop using the oven if you smell gas when it’s off.
- Do verify the oven vent area is unobstructed.
- Do watch the ignition sequence: it should light smoothly without a long delay.
- Don’t use the range as a space heater (this can create carbon monoxide risk).
- Don’t cover oven bottom slots or passages with foil; it can block airflow.
