The Burner Cap is an OEM part for GE gas ranges. This component sits on top of the burner head, dispersing the flame evenly for optimal cooking performance and protecting the burner head from spills and debris.
You should replace the burner cap if it becomes damaged or worn out. Causes of a bad burner cap can include exposure to high temperatures, accidental drops or impacts, and buildup of food residues or cleaning chemicals that can erode the surface over time.
Symptoms of a bad burner cap include:
- Uneven flame distribution or yellow flames
- Difficulty in igniting the burner
- Visible cracks, chips, or warping on the cap
- Poor cooking performance due to inconsistent heat
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Replacing the parts was a 3 minute job, & my 14 year-old Kenmore cooker looks brand new.
