The Cap-Burner (Black) is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas ranges and cooktops. This burner cap sits on top of the right rear burner head and helps distribute the flame evenly for efficient cooking. It also protects the burner head from spills and debris, ensuring proper functionality and longevity of the burner.

Over time, burner caps can become damaged or worn out due to constant exposure to high temperatures, spills, and regular cleaning. A bad burner cap can lead to uneven flames, poor cooking performance, and potential damage to the burner head.

Symptoms of a bad burner cap include:

• Uneven or irregular flame
• Flames that are too high or too low
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• Visible cracks or discoloration on the cap

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This orifice holder secures the burner orifice to the gas burner assembly, ensuring stable gas flow for reliable ignition and consistent flame performance. Use it to restore proper burner operation on compatible gas ranges and cooktops. What it does:

• Holds the burner orifice in the correct position so gas is metered properly to the burner
• Helps restore consistent flame height and shape when a worn or damaged holder causes poor combustion
• Common symptom linkage: burner won't light, weak or uneven flame, or inconsistent heating
• Works with the matching orifice size (12K) to maintain designed burner output

• TURN OFF gas supply and electrical power before beginning any service
• Remove burner parts and replace holder, then reinstall orifice and burner cap in correct order
• After reassembly, check for gas leaks at connections with a soapy-water test; do not use an open flame

This surface burner orifice holder channels gas from the valve to the burner and positions the orifice correctly for the 9.2K burner. Replacing a damaged holder restores proper gas flow, ignition, and consistent flame performance.

• Routes gas from the surface valve to the burner and houses the orifice
• Provides correct orifice alignment/seal for the designated 9.2K burner
• Helps ensure stable flame height and reliable ignition
• Typical failure symptoms: weak or uneven flame, delayed ignition, or gas odor near that burner

• Disconnect power and shut off gas; allow appliance to cool before servicing
• Remove burner cap and head to access, then support fittings with two wrenches when loosening/tightening to avoid stressing the manifold
• Transfer any reusable parts from the original assembly only as directed by your model's service information
• After installation, restore gas and check all connections for leaks with an approved leak-detection solution; verify flame and ignition

Causes of a bad burner head can include clogging from food debris or grease, corrosion due to prolonged exposure to heat and moisture, or physical damage from impact. Such issues can obstruct gas flow and result in uneven heating or poor flame quality.

Symptoms of a bad burner head include:

• Uneven flame or poor flame control
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• Low or inconsistent heat output
• Unusual noises such as hissing or popping during operation

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
