My sister just bought a house that came with a beautiful Frigidaire 1956 Imperial 40" range (see attached picture).
I'm going to try to get it running back up to snuff for her.
To start, I'll need to replace the right rear burner, the incandescent indicator bulbs, and the fluorescent tube. I plan to remove the old ballast and starter and replace them with a modern electronic ballast.
A kind friend on this forum sent me a copy of the Frigidaire Service Tech-Talk that covers this range, but sadly it doesn't have any part numbers.
Does someone have part numbers for this range?
Thanks!

My wife has an old one worse condition than yours but is weirdly wanting to restore it - She remembers it from her childhood - Any chance you would sell yours ? Just a thought 360 550 8835
 
Be sure the "modern electronic ballast" will tolerate the heat if it's mounted anywhere that would come into play. If the old one works, I'd leave it in place for another 45 years...

You can still find these on Facebook Marketplace pretty easily.
