Customer Questions and Answers for Burner Valve (Gas Range) by Whirlpool

This burner valve controls the flow of gas to a single surface burner, restoring proper burner ignition and heat control. It's a direct-replacement gas valve that helps fix intermittent or no-flame burner operation. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to one surface burner so the burner lights and the flame responds to the control knob.
• Replaces a valve that is stuck, leaking, or not allowing gas through, which can cause a burner to fail to light or produce a weak/unsteady flame.
• Works with pilot/ignition systems to ensure consistent ignition when the knob is turned.
• Helps eliminate clicking or continuous sparking caused by failed gas delivery (when ignition sequence is otherwise OK).

• One burner valve

• Turn off the gas supply and unplug the appliance before starting any work.
• Verify valve orientation and connections match your appliance.
• Use approved fittings and check all gas connections for leaks with a soap solution or gas leak tester after installation.
• Do not attempt repairs if you smell gas; ventilate the area, avoid open flames.
