Wall ovens, ranges and the burners on top
A range is an oven and a cooktop in one cabinet, and the two halves fail for different reasons.
We work on freestanding and slide-in ranges, wall ovens and pro-style ranges from brands such as Wolf, Viking, Thermador and BlueStar: gas, electric and dual-fuel, where the burners run on gas and the oven bakes electrically.
When the oven won't heat
In a gas oven the usual suspect is the igniter. It has to draw enough current to open the gas valve. As it ages it still glows but no longer opens the valve, so the oven never lights.
In an electric oven, start with the bake element: a visible break or blister means it has failed. Hidden elements, the temperature sensor, the control relay and the thermal fuse are checked with a meter, not guessed.
Uneven baking, or an oven that runs hot or cold, points to the temperature sensor, a stopped convection fan, a worn door gasket or a control that needs calibrating.
Burners that click, won't light or burn yellow
A burner that clicks but won't light is usually wet, clogged after a boil-over, or has its cap sitting crooked. Clicking that goes on with the knob off usually means a wet or worn spark switch.
A healthy gas flame is mostly blue. A yellow flame or soot on the pans means the gas is not burning cleanly: a dirty burner, or the wrong orifices after a natural gas to propane conversion. Stop using that burner until it is checked.
On an electric range, a coil or radiant zone that stays cold, or only works on high, usually means a failed element or the switch behind it.
What it is doing, and what that usually means
Gas oven won't heat, igniter glows
The igniter is too weak to open the gas valve. Replacing it is the usual fix.
Electric oven won't heat
A failed bake element, temperature sensor, control relay or thermal fuse, each tested before anything is replaced.
Door locked after self-clean
If the oven has cooled and the door still won't open, the lock motor, the lock switch or the control has failed.
Oven shuts off mid-cook
Often a cooling fan or a thermal fuse that protects the controls from heat, or a failing control board.
Gas: we repair the appliance, not the line
We repair gas ranges, ovens and cooktops: the appliance itself, from igniters and burners to spark modules, oven valves and controls.
We do not repair the gas supply line, the piping or the shutoff valve. That is work for a gas line contractor or your gas utility.
If you smell gas, do not use the range and do not switch anything on or off. Leave the house and call your gas utility or 911 from outside.
Self-clean, door locks and controls
Self-clean runs the oven far hotter than cooking does, and that is when weak parts give out: thermal fuses, lock motors, control boards.
A door that stays locked while the oven is hot is normal; the latch releases once it cools. Still locked hours later, or showing a lock or error code, means the lock assembly or the control has failed. Forcing the door can bend the latch and make the repair bigger.
Unresponsive touch controls or a blank display usually trace back to the control board, the keypad or a faulty sensor. Power flickers during summer storms can damage boards too.
