Maytag Wall Oven Burner & Related Parts

The burner base is the metal burner head that supports the burner cap and directs the cooktop flame. Replacing a damaged burner base helps restore steady ignition and more even heat for everyday cooking. What it does:

• Provides the mounting surface and gas-port pattern for a surface burner and accepts the burner cap.
• Directs the flame for consistent heat across cookware.
• Common symptoms of a failing burner base: uneven or weak flame, burner won't light, visible corrosion or physical damage.
• Can cause repeated ignition attempts or poor heating when cracked, bent, or clogged.

• Turn off electrical power and the gas supply before servicing the range.
• Remove burner grates and caps to access the base; depending on model the base may lift out or be secured with fasteners.
• Inspect the igniter and surrounding components while replacing the base; reassemble and test the burner for proper ignition and flame pattern.

This surface burner head replaces a worn or clogged top burner on gas ranges and cooktops, restoring a steady, even flame and reliable ignition so your burners heat consistently for everyday cooking.

• Mixes gas and air to produce the cooking flame
• Works with the igniter to light the burner
• Directs flame evenly around cookware
• Common symptoms: weak or uneven flame, yellow tipping, delayed ignition or no light, soot, or popping noises

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off the gas; allow the cooktop to cool completely
• Remove grate and burner cap; take out the mounting screw(s) and lift off the old burner head
• Align the new head with the igniter and orifice holder; reinstall screw(s) and the cap
• Restore gas and power; test ignition and verify a clean, even flame

• Many models use different burners by position and output; match the exact part number for the correct location
• Clear clogged ports with a soft brush or compressed air—do not enlarge ports with pins or drill bits

The Valve-Gas is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas cooktops. This valve is located underneath the cooktop and is responsible for controlling the flow of gas to each burner. 

Symptoms of a bad gas valve can include:

• Inability to ignite or adjust certain burner flames
• Gas leaks or smells around the valve area 
• Intermittent or irregular flame levels
• Yellow flames that pose a safety risk

Over time and with heavy usage, components inside the valve can wear down affecting proper gas regulation. 

Compatible models also include KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, and some Kenmore units. 

This burner cap fits over a gas cooktop's surface burner to help direct flame for even heating and protect the burner head. It restores proper burner appearance and helps maintain efficient flame pattern for cooking. What it does:

• Covers and protects the gas burner head from spills and debris
• Shapes and stabilizes the burner flame for consistent heat distribution
• Helps prevent flame disturbance that can cause uneven cooking or clicking
• Restores a finished look to the cooktop surface

• 1 burner cap

• Turn off gas supply and ensure all surfaces are cool before handling
• Remove loose debris and set the cap on the burner head so it seats evenly
• If cap is warped or does not sit flat, inspect burner head for damage or debris
• Use only manufacturer-recommended parts and follow your appliance's service instructions

Orifice spud secures the burner orifice to the gas valve/manifold and directs fuel to the burner for proper flame performance. Replaces a damaged or corroded spud to help restore correct gas flow at the burner. What it does:

• Holds the burner orifice in place and channels gas from the valve to the burner.
• Helps maintain consistent flame size for even heating and cooking.
• Commonly used when a burner has weak, uneven, or intermittent flame performance.
• Replace if the spud is cracked, corroded, damaged, or leaking.

• Turn off the appliance's gas supply and disconnect power before beginning any repairs.
• Remove burner components per the service manual and install the spud in the same orientation as the original.
• Hand-start threads, then snug with the appropriate wrench—do not overtighten.
• After installation, check fittings for leaks with an approved leak-detection method; if you smell gas or suspect a leak, stop.

The Surface Burner Orifice Holder is an OEM part specially designed for Whirlpool gas ranges and cooktops. This part holds and positions the burner orifice above the surface burner, facilitating the mixture of gas and air required for combustion. 

Symptoms of a bad orifice holder include:

• Yellow or incomplete burner flames  
• Flames not remaining centered on the burner surface
• Burners that will not light or stay lit
• Gas leaks detected around the burner area

This is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper gas ranges and cooktops. 

This saddle-style gas valve controls gas flow to the appliance, letting technicians create a safe, serviceable gas connection. It's used where a saddle/tap-style inlet is required for supplying natural gas to the unit. What it does:

• Provides a saddle-mounted gas shutoff and inlet for an appliance connection
• Restores gas flow when a damaged or leaking saddle valve prevents operation
• Commonly used when a service replacement or rework of the appliance gas inlet is needed
• Helps isolate the appliance gas supply for repair or maintenance

• Turn off the home gas supply and relieve downstream pressure before starting work
• Installation must follow OEM instructions and local codes; use appropriate fittings and sealants for gas service
• Check all connections for leaks with a gas-safe leak detector or soapy-water test after installation

This orifice directs a controlled flow of gas to the appliance burner, helping restore the correct flame size for reliable heating and ignition. Use when burner performance is weak or inconsistent to help return proper operation. What it does

• Restricts and meters gas flow to the burner for consistent flame characteristics
• Helps the burner ignite and maintain a steady flame when sized correctly
• Commonly replaces worn, clogged, or damaged orifices that cause low or irregular flames
• Resolves symptoms like weak heat, slow ignition, or uneven burner performance

• Turn off gas supply and electrical power before servicing; follow all safety precautions
• Inspect surrounding burner and sealing surfaces for debris or damage before installation
• Tighten securely but avoid overtightening; use proper fittings and thread sealant rated for gas if required

This burner cap covers the auxiliary (small) gas burner on your cooktop or range. It shapes the flame for even heating and protects the burner head—helping restore reliable ignition and a clean, finished look.

• Sits on the auxiliary burner head to shape and contain the flame
• Promotes even heating and dependable ignition when properly centered
• Shields the burner head from spills and debris
• Replace if the original cap is missing, warped, chipped, or discolored
• Typical symptoms: uneven or yellow flame, delayed ignition or continuous clicking without lighting, weak heat on that burner

• Shut off gas and power; allow the surface to cool before servicing
• Lift off the old cap, clean the burner head, and place the new cap over the auxiliary burner
• Align any locating features so the cap sits flat and centered; misalignment can prevent ignition or cause a yellow flame
