What Igniter keeps glowing after the burner lights
actually means.
The Pizza Oven Plus lights its hearth and log burners with spiral hot surface igniters, and they stay lit through the whole bake, even at the lowest setting. If wind or a dip in gas pressure puts the flame out, the glowing igniter lights it again.

What to do when Igniter keeps glowing after the burner lights shows on the pizza ovenKind of codeMode, not a failure
No part of the oven has failed; the display is reporting a state someone chose or the oven entered on its own. A cool-down keeps the blowers turning after the heat is off until the cavity or the tunnel has dropped to a safe level, an energy save setting lets the decks sag between rushes, and a menu lock stops anyone on the line from changing the bake times. No part is needed: letting the cool-down run out, or the key sequence in the manual, brings the oven back.

Leave the glow alone; it is part of how the oven keeps its burners lit.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Alfresco's own guidance for Igniter keeps glowing after the burner lights on its pizza ovens. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Leave the glow alone; it is part of how the oven keeps its burners lit.
If you see the glow but no flame on the burner, turn that knob off and give the gas five minutes to clear before another attempt.
If a burner keeps losing its flame and relighting, move the oven so its back faces the wind, and book a visit if it keeps happening on a calm day.
Cleared?
The code has left the display, the decks or the tunnel come up to the set heat and hold it through a full service, the belt keeps its speed and the blowers run steady, all with no part changed. If the same code returns within a week, or on the next busy night, say so when you book.
What not to do
A glowing igniter during a bake does not mean the oven is overheating or that a wire is shorting. The problem Alfresco asks you to watch for is the opposite one, an igniter that never glows when you turn the knob.
