How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off gas and power before removing the burner.
Steps:
- Remove the oven bottom panel and flame spreader to access the burner.
- Clean burner ports with a soft brush or compressed air; do not enlarge the holes.
- Ensure the burner is properly seated over the orifice and aligned with the igniter.
- If the igniter is old, consider replacing it, as a weak igniter can cause poor flame stability.
If the problem persists, a technician should check gas pressure and the oven safety valve.
