Default Tappan Dbl Oven Top won't ignite
Brand: Tappan
Model Number: 72-7242-23
Age: More than 10 years

I am trying to find a replacement gas valve for the Tappan Dbl oven..
The top oven will not turn on, but oven does. I've isolated it to the valve, but no one seems to be ble to find a replacement part. In fact all services I've tried can't match up the the model # or part # of valve.
Anyone help, PLEASE!!!

Can you please verify your model number?

Are the numbers clear?

Not that I'm aware of. It was bought around 1984 and sold under the O'Keefe and Merit. Came new with the house in Corona California.

Okeefe&Merritt is the name on the oven door, but Tappan is on the tag wher the Model # and Serial # is stamped. OPkeefe is a division of Tappan

The model will not work in our database.

You should try calling Tappen at US 1-800-599-7569 Canada 1-800-265-8352.
