    FixBear you mentioned checking the Klixon switch but I have an issue trying to locate it? Do you know where it is for an SDG1 oven? The issue I am having it that the oven gets to temp, shuts off then won't relit? Lots of spark and pilot lights but no main burner.  It has a new Ignition board and I had to replace the 24V transformer for some reason it quit working?

    Thanks Fixbear for the tips with the Garland Ovens. New Ignitor was the fix and your suggestions on using the stones with water for steam is working great. The Bakers' production is up and the bread is awesome!

    I finally have the Oven working fine with the new Ignition board but when the bakers run it up to 500 and then add water into the oven for the moisture to bake bread I get shut down or popping of the main valve fire? Anyone had this problem before?

    Here is where I am at with this SDG1 oven: new pilot and flame sensor, valve was replaced with a confirmed working valve from the bottom unit, checked wired correctly,  110 volts at door switch and at oven switch, Baso spark unit delivers 24 volts of spark when it is working all seems good but its intermittent. I took off the power line to the Baso ignitor and put a new end on it thinking it was a short. It seems to work fine then hits temp, cycles off and sometimes reignites and sometimes not. No voltage to Baso when it doesn't ignites but jiggle the wires and the unit and sometimes it works. I don't want to replace the Baso unit because it works fine when it works?

    Pilot, flame sensor,  and gas valve all work. Ground wire clean. Seems to be a wiring issue? I am out of solutions!

    Sorry it is hard to put everything in an email that makes sense to me. Yes they are stacked gas convection SDG1 ovens. Bottom oven never has had a problem. Top one seemed to have intermittent problems. Light sometimes and other times nothing. After replacing the pilot and flame sensor on the top one, I switched valves from one to the other to see if it was the valve. The Top oven valve went into the bottom oven and the bottom one still runs fine. So I assume that rules out valve issues since the original top oven valve works fine in the bottom oven and the bottom oven valve that never was a problem is now in the top oven which worked fine yesterday but wouldn't light today? Any suggestions?

    Same issue again but I have replaced the Flame sensor and pilot and switched the gas valve with one from the lower identical unit that never had a problem. The Lower oven works fine so the valve is not the problem but now the top oven does not fire at all, no pilot gas etc. I have jumpered out the door switch so not that either. Any suggestions. Spark unit when working shows 24v?

    I have the same issue with a SUnfire SDG1 oven. I have replaced the thermocouple and flame sensor rod. When you turn on the oven, I get lots of spark but no gas at the pilot light for the flame sensor. It has been an intermittent problem for some time so I thought it was a weak spark and or flame sensor? Anything I should be checking?

    Everything else checks out fine. I can light the pilot line by manually lighting it with a sparker and main burners fire. Once it hits temp and shuts off, it won't relit. No spark at pilot. I jumpered the pilot spark line from the oven below and manually turned both ovens on and lots of spark and ignition. I think its time to replace the Baso ignitor because I can't get consistent spark at top oven?
