Kenmore / Sears Range / Cooktop / Oven Burner & Related Parts

The Regulator is an OEM part for Frigidaire cooktops. It is responsible for regulating the flow and pressure of gas entering the appliance, ensuring safe and efficient operation.

A bad regulator can be caused by faulty internal components, wear and tear over time, or damage due to improper handling. Signs of a faulty regulator include uneven heating, weak flame, or gas leaks.

Symptoms of a bad regulator can include:

• Uneven heating of burners or oven 
• Weak or inconsistent flame 
• Gas leaks around the regulator 

This Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

This governor assembly is the mechanical control that stabilizes and regulates motion within the appliance's drive mechanism. Replacing a worn governor restores smooth, consistent operation and helps prevent erratic movement that can strain connected components. What it does:

• Regulates and limits the speed/rotation of the linked drive for stable, predictable movement
• Helps synchronize gears or shafts so the mechanism operates smoothly
• Common symptoms: intermittent or no movement, jerky/erratic motion, clicking or grinding noises
• Visible wear, cracks, or a loose/broken hub on the original governor

• 1 governor assembly

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow moving parts to come to a complete stop
• Note the original orientation; take photos to aid reassembly
• Transfer any reusable brackets, clips, or spacers from the original if required
• After installation, rotate the mechanism by hand to verify free movement before restoring power

This small cap snaps into the center of a control knob. It refreshes the appearance and helps keep moisture and debris out of the knob interior so the control stays protected and easy to use. What it does:

• Seats over the orifice and spark igniter in sealed-burner designs

• Disconnect power and shut off gas; allow the surface to cool completely
• Remove grate and cap; lift off or unthread the old head, retaining any mounting screw
• Clean the mating surface; align the new head over the orifice and igniter so it sits flat; if screw-retained, tighten snugly only
• Reinstall cap and grate; restore gas/power and confirm proper ignition and flame

This orifice spud is the small gas burner fitting that holds the burner orifice and helps direct fuel to the burner for proper ignition. It restores correct gas flow to the burner assembly for reliable ignition and flame. What it does:
