Samsung Gas Range Burner Won’t Light or Flame Is Uneven? DG62-00299A Burner Head – Fix It Fast
A cracked, clogged, or warped burner head is the most common reason a Samsung gas range burner won’t ignite or produces a weak, uneven flame. In most Samsung gas ranges, this is caused by a failed burner head assembly — the component that distributes gas evenly through the flame ports and works with the igniter to produce a consistent blue flame. When it cracks or warps from heat exposure, gas flow becomes uneven, the igniter can’t seat properly, and the burner either won’t light or produces an orange, sputtering flame. ⚡ High-wear failure point in Samsung gas ranges. Part DG62-00299A is the genuine OEM replacement burner head assembly that restores reliable ignition and a consistent, even flame immediately.
❓ Is This the Right Part?
This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:
- ✔ Your range powers on and the igniter clicks when the knob is turned
- ✔ Gas supply to the range is confirmed on and flowing
- ✔ Other burners on the range light normally
- ✔ The burner cap and grate are undamaged and seated correctly
- ✔ ONLY problem is this specific burner — won’t light, uneven flame, or flame goes out immediately after lighting

- Igniter keeps clicking after the burner is lit

- Type: OEM Gas Range Burner Head Assembly
- Replaces: Genuine OEM Samsung burner head — direct-fit replacement (no modification required)
- Brands: Samsung
While the burner head is off, inspect the burner cap and igniter tip — a worn or cracked cap causes the same uneven flame symptoms and is inexpensive to replace at the same time. Replacing both eliminates all the common causes of burner failure in a single repair.
⚙️ Installation
Skill Level: EASY — 15 to 20 minutes. Turn off the gas supply and disconnect power to the range before beginning. Remove the burner grate and lift off the burner cap to expose the burner head — the head lifts straight off the burner base with no tools required. Seat DG62-00299A flat onto the burner base, replace the cap and grate, restore gas and power, then test for even ignition and a consistent blue flame on all ports. Ensure the burner head is fully level on the base before replacing the cap — an off-centre head causes the same uneven flame symptoms.

💡 Pro Tip
Food debris and grease in the burner base ports cause the same uneven flame symptoms as a failed head — and they’ll contaminate your new part immediately if not cleared first. Use a straightened paper clip or a fine wire brush to clear each port on the base before seating DG62-00299A. Takes 2 minutes and protects your investment.
