Possible Causes

Dirty oven burner ports, Misaligned burner, Weak igniter not maintaining proper current, Low gas pressure

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.
