This flame spreader directs and evens the oven burner flame for more uniform heating and improved bake results. Replacement spreaders restore proper flame pattern and help reduce hot spots in the oven cavity. What it does:

• Distributes burner flame across the oven surface to promote even cooking and baking.
• Helps prevent concentrated hot spots that can cause unevenly cooked food.
• Can restore correct flame pattern when the existing baffle is warped, damaged, or missing.
• Supports stable burner operation by shielding and guiding the flame.

• Turn off power to the range and shut off the gas supply before servicing.
• Handle carefully to avoid bending or damaging the baffle; reinstall in the original orientation.
• Use appropriate hand tools and follow the oven's service manual for removal/installation steps.
• After installation, restore gas and power and check burner ignition and for any gas leaks per safety procedures.

The Burner Valve (RR) is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It controls the flow of gas to the rear-right burner, allowing for precise regulation of the flame during cooking. The valve ensures safe and efficient operation by opening and closing as needed to adjust the burner’s heat output.

Over time, burner valves can become faulty due to wear and tear, grease buildup, or internal damage. Exposure to high heat and repeated use may cause the valve to stick, leak, or fail to regulate gas properly. If the valve becomes obstructed or worn out, it can compromise cooking performance and safety.

Symptoms of a bad burner valve include:

• Inconsistent or weak flame
• Gas smell near the burner when turned off
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• The burner not shutting off completely

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