Maytag Range / Cooktop / Oven Burner & Related Parts

For Use With LP

This orifice spud meters gas to a burner on your range or cooktop, setting proper flame size for efficient, even heating. Replacing a damaged or incorrect spud restores consistent burner performance and flame quality.

• Meters gas flow through the burner orifice to control flame height and shape
• Supports efficient combustion and consistent heat output
• Common fix for flames that are too high/low, yellow/sooty, or uneven
• Used when setting up or converting a model for the specified fuel type (LP or natural), per the position of each burner

• Shut off the gas supply and disconnect electrical power before servicing
• Remove the burner cap and head to access the spud; lift the cooktop or open the range top if required
• Remove/install with a properly sized wrench; do not overtighten. Apply thread sealant only if specified by the manufacturer
• Match each spud to the correct burner and fuel type per your model documentation; after reassembly, restore gas and leak-test with a soapy-water solution

The Surface Burner Cap is an OEM replacement part designed for Whirlpool gas ranges. This component covers and protects the burner head, helping to evenly distribute the flame for consistent cooking heat. It also shields the burner from debris and prevents clogs that could impede performance.

Over time, burner caps can suffer from regular wear and tear, high heat exposure, or damage from accidental impact. 

Color: Black

Symptoms of a faulty surface burner cap include:

• Uneven or inconsistent flame pattern
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• Visible cracks, warping, or discoloration
• Poor fitting, leading to debris buildup around the burner head

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Note: LP Bake Orifice  (#56 on the orifice)

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

• Helps maintain steady, even flame output
• Common failure symptoms: burner won't light or takes too long to ignite, weak or uneven flame, repeated clicking without ignition

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Remove grates, burner caps, and burner heads to access the holder
• If present, label and disconnect the igniter lead; transfer the existing orifice spud and any seals from the old holder
• Reassemble, restore gas, and leak-test connections with a soapy water solution; verify burner operation

This gas surface burner cap sits on top of the burner head to shape an even flame and shield the burner from spills. Replace a missing, chipped, or warped cap to restore proper flame pattern and appearance.

• Directs and evens the flame across the burner for consistent heating
• Shields the burner head and ports from spills and debris
• Helps promote reliable ignition when properly seated on the burner head
• Common signs it's needed: uneven or yellow flames, delayed ignition, flames lifting or noisy, visible chips/warping

• Ensure the cooktop/range is cool; disconnect power and shut off gas if working near igniters
• Lift off the old cap and clean the burner head/ports; do not enlarge or damage the ports
• Place the new cap on the matching burner, centered and seated flat; do not interchange sizes between burners
• Light the burner and confirm a steady, even blue flame; reseat the cap if the flame is uneven

The Regulator is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for controlling the flow of gas to the burners and ensuring the proper gas pressure for efficient and safe cooking.

A bad pressure regulator can occur due to wear and tear, clogs, or damage to the internal components. If you notice symptoms such as weak or inconsistent flame, gas leaks, or difficulty in igniting the burners, it may indicate a faulty valve and pressure regulator.

Symptoms of a bad regulator include:

• Weak or inconsistent flame
• Gas leaks
• Difficulty in igniting the burners

Restore your range by replacing the faulty or damaged valve and pressure regulator with this genuine OEM part.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
