GE Range Burner Valve (WB21X25979)

The GE Range Burner Valve controls the flow of gas to the burner on your range, regulating how much fuel reaches the igniter and flame to give you precise heat control from low simmer to high output. It connects your control knob to the gas supply line, opening and closing as you turn the knob to adjust or shut off the burner flame on your GE dual-fuel range.

A GE range burner valve can wear out over time from repeated use, exposure to heat, grease buildup, or corrosion around the valve seat that prevents it from sealing or opening correctly. Internal components can crack or stick, causing the valve to deliver too much or too little gas, or fail to shut off the flow entirely when the burner is turned to the off position.

Look for these symptoms to help determine if the burner valve is the cause of your range problem:

- Burner flame will not ignite even when the igniter is clicking

- Flame stays on or will not fully shut off after turning the knob to off

- Burner produces an uneven, weak, or excessively large flame

- Strong gas smell near the burner when it is off or in use

- Control knob turns but has no effect on the flame level

- Burner lights inconsistently or only at certain heat settings

- Visible damage, cracking, or corrosion on or around the valve body
