This auxiliary surface burner head mounts over the orifice on your gas cooktop/range and distributes gas through precision ports for an even flame. Replacing a clogged or damaged head restores fast ignition and consistent heat on the small burner. What it does:

• Distributes gas through ports to produce a stable, even flame on the auxiliary burner
• Interfaces with the igniter electrode for quick, reliable lighting
• Common symptoms of a worn/clogged head: burner won't ignite or clicks without lighting; weak, uneven, or yellow flame; delayed ignition
• Helps restore proper simmer performance after corrosion, warping, or blocked ports

• 1 auxiliary burner head

• Shut off gas and disconnect power; allow the cooktop/range to cool completely
• Remove grate and burner cap, then lift off the old head; clear debris from the orifice and around the igniter (do not enlarge burner ports)
• Position the new head over the orifice and igniter; align locating features and seat fully; if your model uses screws, tighten them evenly without over-torquing
• Reinstall the cap and grate, restore gas/power, and verify even flame and normal ignition

The Burner Head is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for distributing gas to create an even flame for cooking on the stovetop. This burner head ensures efficient gas flow and optimal flame control, which are essential for consistent cooking performance.

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.

This burner head mounts on the cooktop and distributes gas evenly to produce a steady flame. Replacing a worn or damaged head restores proper flame pattern and helps your burner light quickly and cook consistently.

• Directs gas through precisely sized ports to create an even flame
• Can resolve issues like uneven flames, yellow/orange flames, or delayed ignition
• Helps when the burner won't light or only lights partially
• Replaces a corroded, clogged, or warped burner head

• Disconnect power and shut off gas supply before servicing
• Allow the cooktop to cool completely
• Lift off the grate and cap; remove the old head and align the new head on the burner base
• Ensure ports are clean and seated correctly; test for proper ignition and flame
