Whirlpool WPW10206287 Burner Valve (Lr) OEM Part

Ordered correct replacement parts (your online form helped to identify correct valves 2 had black dot on inside stem for back small burner 1 had red dot for larger front burner). locked stove, turned off gas, unplugged cord. removed knobs, 5 screws and front plate also removed L shaped plate below knobs for better access to comp. fittings. pulled off ignitior controls loosened compression fittings (hard to get wrench on nut but doable), removed screw holding valve to manifold. reversed order for new valves. Lit burners and sprayed soap solution on all joints to check for leaks. All good.

Watched a video on how to replace the valve and learned that you can lock the stove and disable the gas and electric to the burners to do the repair simply by holding in the Start button for 5 seconds. The rest was easy and only took less than15 minutes to complete. The part was identical to the one I replaced and works perfectly, and it came within two days of ordering it online with Appliance Parts Pros

I replaced the burner valve which did not turn and therefore did not allow gas to flow.

I ordered the replacement burner valve through Appliance Parts Pros after going to the web and typing in my Appliance model. I liked their pricing and the clarity of their parts search assistance on-line. The parts arrived as promised on time. The removal of the faulty valve and the installation of the replacement valve went smoothly. Opening up the stove top also allowed us to do a thorough cleaning. Cooking grease builds up over time and I probably would not have performed this deeply if the valve had not failed. So, things worked together for good and my stove performs perfectly once again. Thank you for your customer orientation and your offer to chat and help with appliance questions. I am blessed,!

This isn't the first time. I'm an old hand at it now. These valves, though expensive, go bad after a few years in that suddenly they refuse to turn on (It is fortunate that they fail in this manner - what if they wouldn't turn off?). The repair is simple, but the flange nut on the end of the valve (the pipe that goes to the burner) is difficult to get to with an open end wrench). One can take loose the supply manifold (the pipe that all the other valves are connected to) and that helps a little bit. I now have three spares (one for each type of burner (low BTU, high BTU, and griddle-in-the-middle), because another one will fail soon.
