The Burner Cap is an OEM part for LG ranges. It sits over the range burner and directs the flame for efficient cooking. Burner caps help spread heat across cookware while containing flames and sparks to the burner area.
Causes of a bad burner cap include wear and tear, cracks or breaks developing over time. If accidentally dropped or mishandled, excessive impact can damage the thin metal cap.
Symptoms of a bad burner cap include:
- Flames seen escaping outside the designated burner area
- Inefficient or uneven heating of cookware positioned over the cap
- Looseness, wobbling or inability to properly seat the cap securely on the burner
- Cracks, holes or other surface damage visible on the cap
This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.
