GE Gas Range Burner (WB16K10062)

The GE Gas Range Burner replaces the sealed burner used on the cooktop surface to ignite and distribute gas flame for cooking. It works by mixing gas and air at the burner ports, which are ignited by a spark and produce a controlled flame ring that heats cookware placed above it.

A GE gas range burner can fail when the burner ports become clogged with food debris, grease, or mineral buildup, preventing gas from flowing evenly. Corrosion, physical damage to the burner cap or head, or repeated exposure to spills and high heat can also cause the burner to perform poorly or stop lighting altogether.

Look for these symptoms to help determine if this burner needs to be replaced:

- Burner will not light or requires multiple attempts to ignite

- Flame is uneven, weak, or only lights on part of the burner ring

- Burner produces an orange or yellow flame instead of a steady blue flame

- Clicking continues after the burner has lit or when the burner is off

- Visible cracks, corrosion, or damage on the burner head or cap

- Burner lights but goes out shortly after ignition

- Unusual gas smell near the cooktop when the burner is in use
