Parts for Maytag MGC7536DE00: 03 - Burner Box, Gas Valves And Switch Parts

This gas valve assembly controls the flow of natural or LP gas to a range or oven burner, restoring proper fuel delivery for reliable ignition and cooking performance. Use as a direct replacement when the valve fails. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to the burner(s) so the oven or range can ignite and maintain a flame
• Works with the appliance's safety and ignition systems to stop gas when the burner is off
• Commonly replaces valves when burners do not light, have no gas flow, or flame is intermittent
• Matches OEM function to restore normal operation without modifying existing controls

• Turn off gas supply and unplug the appliance before starting any work.
• Gas fittings must be leak-tested after installation.
• Do not modify the valve; follow appliance manufacturer instructions and local codes.

The Valve-Gas is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas cooktops. This valve is located underneath the cooktop and is responsible for controlling the flow of gas to each burner. 

Symptoms of a bad gas valve can include:

• Inability to ignite or adjust certain burner flames
• Gas leaks or smells around the valve area 
• Intermittent or irregular flame levels
• Yellow flames that pose a safety risk

Over time and with heavy usage, components inside the valve can wear down affecting proper gas regulation. 

Compatible models also include KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, and some Kenmore units. 

This switch seal is a replacement gasket that helps keep moisture and debris away from the appliance's door/control switch, protecting the switch assembly and helping restore reliable door detection and operation. What it does:

• Seals the area around the door/control switch to block water, lint, and grime.
• Helps prevent intermittent trips or failures caused by moisture or foreign material contacting the switch.
• Promotes consistent switch actuation and can extend the service life of the switch assembly.
• Useful when the existing seal is cracked, torn, flattened, or missing.

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Access typically requires removing the door trim or control panel—follow your model's service instructions.
• Inspect the switch and surrounding area for damage or corrosion and clean before installing the new seal.

This gas pressure regulator controls and stabilizes incoming fuel supply to the appliance's burner system, helping ensure consistent flames and reliable operation. Replace it if pressure is unstable or burners/oven won't heat or ignite correctly. What it does:

• Reduces household gas supply to the appliance-rated pressure for proper burner performance
• Maintains steady pressure as burner demand changes to prevent over/under-firing
• Helps prevent yellow, lifting, or flickering flames and sooting caused by pressure issues

• 1 gas pressure regulator

• Shut off gas supply and disconnect power before servicing
• Observe flow-direction arrow on the regulator body; install between supply and appliance manifold
• Use approved gas-rated thread sealant on threaded connections; do not overtighten
• After installation, check all joints for leaks with a non-corrosive leak-detection solution; correct any leaks before use

This spark module supplies the high-voltage pulses that ignite the surface burners on a gas cooktop or range. Replacing a failing module helps restore consistent clicking and spark so burners light promptly and reliably.

• Supplies high-voltage to up to five surface igniters (5+0 configuration)
• Sends spark when a burner control is turned to Lite
• Failure symptoms can include no spark on all or multiple burners
• May also cause intermittent/weak spark or continuous clicking

• Disconnect power and shut off gas before servicing
• Note wire locations; move one connector at a time to matching terminals
• Mount securely in the original position and ensure proper grounding
• After replacement, if only one burner won't ignite, inspect that burner's switch and igniter

This orifice spud meters gas to the burner for a consistent, correctly sized flame. Replace a clogged or damaged spud to restore proper burner output and reliable ignition on your gas cooktop or range.

• Controls and meters gas flow through a calibrated opening to the burner
• Helps ensure proper flame size and color when matched to the correct burner and fuel type
• Common symptoms of a failing or clogged spud: weak or uneven flame, yellow tipping, or delayed ignition
• Damaged threads or a stripped orifice can prevent correct sealing and fuel delivery

• Shut off gas supply and disconnect power; allow the appliance to cool
• Access the orifice holder/manifold for the affected burner; remove the old spud with an appropriate orifice wrench or nut driver
• Start the new spud by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly—do not overtighten brass threads
• Restore gas and check for leaks with an approved leak-detection solution; verify flame quality and adjust per the service manual
