Yes according to da google and U tube.
Just finished replacing with a fridgidaire igniter that was identical without the plastic connectors but came with ceramic wire nuts. Spliced in and fired up twice no issues.
I showed my wife the craftsman “ignition wrench set” I bought 50 years ago. (Back when vehicles had points and condensers and such). I said “see this?”
It took 50 years but it paid for itself.
I’m trying to teach her the value of tools. So next time I want to buy a tool I might not have to explain WHY I need it.
$42 part incl tax instead of a $300 service call from 50 miles away.
Still a Samsuck so another death or disease is probably right around the corner.
What we have here is failure to communicate.

I keep getting advertisements for Samsung products, including rather huge discounts off their appliances, because I'm a Samsung customer and because I work for AT&T.

Their big thing right now are "bespoke" appliances. Basically, you can custom design some aspects of the appliance, which makes it bespoke.

And I can't keep but thinking to myself... there's no way in hell that I'd buy a Samsung appliance, let alone a bespoke one. I can only see that introducing brave new avenues for the appliance to fail and for Samsung to say "well, because it's bespoke, it's not really covered under warranty."

MAGA unto others as you would have them MAGA unto you!

Dogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring—it was peace. — Milan Kundera


The gift which I am sending you is called a dog, and is in fact the most precious and valuable possession of mankind

As I said in the other thread we just had about this very subject the only Samsung appliances I got is a dishwasher I got for free and so far it's doing well.

And the inlet valve went bad, fills up with water even when off. Ordered a new one off Amazon for $12. Trouble is unlike most dishwashers where you remove the bottom access plate and there it is Samsung makes you disconnect everything, pull the whole thing out, flip it over, and take the bottom off.

But it's obviously a much better design.  Can't you see that?   :P
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

One thing I've learned over the years is the harder something is to work on the more of a POS it will likely be.
