DG94-01441A Range Oven Bake Igniter – Hot Surface Igniter

The DG94-01441A is a genuine OEM gas range oven bake igniter designed for Samsung and compatible brand gas ranges and ovens. This critical component ignites the gas fuel flowing into the oven bake burner, creating the flame necessary for baking and cooking.

Key Features and Design

• Hot Surface Igniter Technology: Uses electrical resistance heating to reach 2,000°F+, glowing bright red/orange when powered.
• Spiral Type Design: Compact, efficient igniter assembly with integrated mounting bracket for easy installation.
• Premium Materials: High-temperature ceramic element (silicon carbide), sealed metal housing, two-prong Molex connector.
• Improved Design: 50% longer lifespan than previous generation, enhanced spiral design for faster ignition.
• Precise Compatibility: Direct replacement for DG94-00520A, works with popular models like NX58R5601SS and NX58T7511SS.

Performance and Benefits

The igniter is essential for proper oven function—without a functioning bake igniter, the oven cannot ignite gas in the bake burner, preventing all baking operations. When the oven is set to bake, the igniter heats up, and when it reaches operating temperature, the gas valve opens and gas flows over the hot igniter element, igniting from the heat.

Common Symptoms of Failure

• Oven not igniting (no flame, no heat)
• Clicking sound from the oven (igniter not reaching temperature)
• Burning smell from the oven
• Visible cracks or damage to the ceramic element
• Igniter glowing dimly or not glowing at all
• Intermittent ignition (sometimes ignites, sometimes doesn't)

Installation Guidance

The igniter is located at the oven bake burner assembly. Installation requires accessing the oven burner and involves high-temperature components. Basic tools and mechanical aptitude are required.

Also known as: Hot Surface Igniter, Glow Plug, Ceramic Igniter, Bake Burner Ignitor, Spiral Igniter

IMPORTANT: This igniter is specifically for the bake burner function. The broil burner uses a different igniter part number.

CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING: Always turn off the gas supply and unplug the range before working on internal components to prevent gas leaks, electrical shock, accidental ignition, and fire. Allow adequate cooling time before beginning work.
