KitchenAid KFGD500 Gas Double-Oven Range
Gas double-oven range where a burner will not light, the upper oven bakes unevenly or the lower convection fan stops.
Model overview
The KitchenAid KFGD500 is a gas double-oven range with five sealed gas burners on the cooktop. The upper oven holds 2.1 cu. ft. and uses thermal cooking, and the lower oven holds 3.9 cu. ft. and provides convection. Glass touch controls sit on the backguard for both ovens and the cooktop. The electrical specification is 120 V and 15 A, which powers the controls and the ignition. Owners across the metro areas we cover should check the gas supply and which oven is affected before a visit. For the booking form, give the full model number from the rating label, the burner position or oven that fails and any code shown.

What sets the KFGD500 apart
Gas double-oven ranges differ mainly in how the two cavities cook. This one pairs a thermal upper oven of 2.1 cu. ft. with a convection lower oven of 3.9 cu. ft., so the owner can bake two ways at once. The five sealed burners keep the cooktop tidy, and the controls on the backguard keep the cooking surface clear. Day to day, the lower oven suits convection roasts and the upper oven handles standard baking.
Service notes for the KFGD500
When a burner will not ignite or keeps clicking, a technician checks the igniter on that burner, the burner cap seat and the gas valve before anything else. The owner can safely lift the cap and clear spill debris from the ports. Uneven baking in either oven is usually traced to the bake element, the sensor or the rack position, and the owner can note which oven and rack were used. Convection fan or lower-oven light faults are typically the fan motor or the light socket. Oven controls on the backguard can fail from a loose connector, so the owner should check the display before the visit. Turn off the gas at the shutoff valve and disconnect power before any work under the cooktop.
The model number is printed on the rating label, usually on the frame behind the storage or warming drawer, or around the oven door opening; match it letter for letter before booking, because a single letter can change parts.
