Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• The individual burner will not light despite a confirmed spark and an unobstructed burner assembly.
• The burner flame is weak, unstable, or cannot be adjusted normally after basic burner-cleaning checks.
• Gas continues flowing or the burner remains on when its control is set to OFF.
• Gas odor is detected near the valve or connection; stop use immediately and have the appliance inspected.

Check Before Replacing

• With the appliance cool, confirm the control knob is fully seated on the valve stem and turns the stem through its normal range.
• Compare the affected burner with a functioning burner: check that the burner cap and head are correctly positioned and that ports are free of visible food debris or moisture.
• Verify that the igniter produces a spark and that the appliance has its required electrical power; do not disassemble or electrically test the gas valve unless qualified.
• If gas odor is present, turn off the appliance and gas supply if safe to do so, ventilate the area, and contact a qualified gas-appliance technician or the gas utility.
• If the burner will not shut off, do not continue operating the range; a qualified technician should evaluate the valve and the rest of the gas-control system.
