PSA: The oven igniter on a Whirlpool WFG320M0BS will fail the day before Thanksgiving, it happened to me on Nov 27
Customer called at 6am saying the oven wouldn't light and she had a 22 pound turkey ready to go in. I pulled the igniter and the reading was 3.2 amps, should be over 3.5, so it was weak but not dead. Swapped in a new one from the truck and got her back in business by 8:15. Now I stock two of those on the van from October through December, does anyone else keep seasonal parts like that or am I just paranoid?

Paranoid? Nah, you're just running a turkey insurance policy out of your van lol. That 3.2 amp reading is the worst kind too, because it's not dead enough to explain to the customer why you're swapping it, but it's dead enough to ruin her holiday. The day before Thanksgiving is basically the Super Bowl for ovens, so stocking up in Oct is just smart. I'd honestly start hoarding them in September at this point.
