Customer Questions and Answers for Valve Control (Gas) by Ge

This gas valve control regulates the flow of gas to a burner in your range, enabling reliable ignition and precise flame adjustment. Replacing a worn valve restores smooth knob operation and consistent burner performance.

• Meters gas to a single burner as the control knob is turned
• Works with the ignition system to light and sustain the flame
• Typical symptoms include a burner that won't ignite or lights intermittently
• Flame will not adjust or is unstable; knob feels tight, sticky, or turns without proper control

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Allow the appliance to cool and work in a well-ventilated area
• Note the valve's orientation; transfer any model-specific fittings or hardware from the original valve as needed
• After reassembly, restore gas and check all connections with an approved leak-detection solution; verify proper ignition and flame control
