GE Central Burner Cap (WB29K10045)

The GE Central Burner Cap sits on top of the central burner on your GE gas range or dual fuel range and plays a key role in how the burner performs. It distributes the flame evenly around the burner head, directing heat outward in a consistent pattern so your cookware heats uniformly during use.

The GE Central Burner Cap can become damaged or warped from prolonged exposure to high heat, boilovers, and food spills that clog or corrode the cap surface over time. A cracked, chipped, or heavily soiled cap disrupts the flame pattern, which can lead to uneven cooking and burner performance issues that cleaning alone will not fix.

Look for these symptoms to help determine if the central burner cap needs to be replaced:

- Flame burns unevenly or only on one side of the burner

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

- Burner clicks repeatedly but fails to light consistently

- Visible cracks, chips, or warping on the cap surface

- Food or grease buildup that cannot be cleaned off the cap

- Burner lights but flame is weak or sputters during use
