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.
