Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Uneven flame pattern or localized hot spots
• Weak flame or reduced heat on the affected burner
• Delayed ignition when the burner head is obstructed, damaged, or misaligned

Check Before Replacing

• Turn the burner control off and allow the burner to cool completely before inspection.
• Confirm that the burner head is the correct size and is seated flat in its intended position.
• Visually inspect the burner head ports and openings for food residue, spillover, corrosion, or visible damage.
• Compare the affected burner’s flame pattern with another burner of the same type; do not diagnose the burner head solely from a no-heat or no-ignition symptom.
• If the burner head appears correctly seated and unobstructed but the symptom remains, stop use of the burner and consult the appliance’s model-specific service information or a qualified technician.
