This burner ring cap base provides the support and alignment for a gas cooktop burner cap, helping direct the flame for consistent heating and safe operation. It replaces damaged or warped bases that prevent proper burner seating. What it does:

• Supports and centers the burner cap so the flame is properly directed
• Restores even heating and stable flame pattern when the original base is cracked or warped
• Helps maintain correct burner-to-cap spacing for reliable ignition and simmer control
• Prevents burner cap wobble that can cause uneven cooking or noisy flames

• Turn off the gas supply and power to the appliance before starting any work
• Remove burner cap and grate to access the base; ensure all surfaces are clean and dry before installing
• Fit the new base into the burner assembly and ensure the cap seats evenly and securely

Screw (bur) is a fastener that secures panels, brackets and small assemblies on select Whirlpool appliances. Replacing a missing or damaged screw restores proper fastening and helps reduce vibration, rattling and misalignment. What it does:

• Fastens panels, mounting brackets and small internal or external components to the appliance frame.
• Replacing a stripped or missing screw prevents loose parts and restores a secure fit.
• Symptoms of a failing screw include rattling, vibration, panels or trim that do not sit flush, or components that move during operation.
• Commonly used where a short machine screw or trim fastener is required for assembly.

• Disconnect power before beginning any service.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit and install straight to avoid stripping the head or threads.
• Do not overtighten — snug until secure to prevent damage to threads or parts.
• Keep removed fasteners organized and replace any damaged screws with the exact OEM fastener.
