    Sorry to hear that your oven is not lighting.  What you describe means that the oven is getting spark, but no ignition.  Not knowing your capabilities, or what you have available4,   please register for the site so I can talk you through troubleshooting this.

     

     This oven is built by Vulcan for Hobart. It will probably have a Fenwal gas control.  Hobart does not share service information, only parts list.  However, if you know if this is a half size or full sized oven and the age,  It should be easy to cross to a Vulcan design to fugue out the ignition system.

     

    This is a common Vulcan service procedure.

     

    No gGas ignition – sparking occurs 1. Remove the right side panel as outlined under “ COVERS AND PANELS .2. Plug in the unit and set the temperature controller to 350. 3. Turn the power switch on. 4. Check for 24 VAC between the gas valve terminal and the ground terminal. The voltage should be present after the 15 second purge and during the 10 second ignition period. A. If 24 VAC is present, check the gas valve and gas supply. B. If 24 VAC is not present, replace the spark ignition control
