About Our Stove & Range Repair Service
A stove that won't ignite or heats unevenly shuts down your kitchen — and a gas range with an ignition or valve problem is a safety concern that shouldn't wait. Stove and range calls are among our most technically varied: gas valve diagnostics, electric element testing, dual-fuel control board troubleshooting, and induction coil replacement all require different diagnostic approaches.
Our technicians are licensed by California BHGS (#49152) and hold university degrees in radio engineering and electronics. We repair gas, electric, dual-fuel, and induction ranges from GE, Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and Frigidaire, as well as premium ranges from Wolf, Thermador, Viking, Dacor, and Bertazzoni — with OEM parts on every job.
Common Stove & Range Problems
We Fix
Stoves and ranges fail differently depending on fuel type — gas, electric, dual-fuel, and induction each have their own failure modes. Gas ranges involve ignition systems, safety valves, and gas supply regulation. Electric and induction units rely on heating elements, coils, and electronic control boards. We diagnose the specific system and component before replacing anything, and we use OEM parts on every repair.
For premium and built-in ranges — Wolf, Thermador, Viking, Dacor, Bertazzoni — see our dedicated High-End Appliance Repair page for the specialized handling these units require.
1. Burners Won't Ignite (Gas)
The most common gas range call. Typical causes: a cracked or carbon-fouled spark igniter, a failed spark module, a malfunctioning gas safety valve, or a clogged burner port. If you hear clicking but no flame, the igniter is usually sparking but the gas valve isn't opening — which points to the valve solenoid or the flame sensor, not the igniter itself. Gas ignition issues should be addressed promptly for safety reasons.
2. Uneven or Inaccurate Oven Temperature
The oven takes too long to preheat, runs hot or cold, or bakes unevenly. Causes: a failing bake or broil element (electric), a weak oven igniter that doesn't open the gas valve fully (gas), a drifted or failed oven temperature sensor (thermistor), or a miscalibrated control board. On convection models, a failed convection fan motor also causes hot and cold spots.
3. Electric Burners Not Heating
On coil-top ranges: a burned-out element or a failed burner receptacle. On smooth-top (radiant) ranges: a cracked element under the glass, a failed infinite switch, or a control board issue. On induction cooktops: a failed induction coil or a power board problem. Each technology requires a different diagnostic path.
4. Control Panel or Electronic Failures
Error codes, unresponsive touchpads, a display that flickers or goes blank, or cycles that won't start. Typically caused by a failed electronic control board, a damaged membrane keypad, or a wiring harness issue. On ranges with dual ovens or combination stove/oven units, isolating which board is responsible is the first diagnostic step.
5. Oven Door Won't Open or Close Properly
Broken door hinges, worn door springs, a warped inner door panel, or a failed self-clean door lock mechanism. A door that doesn't seal properly leaks heat, which wastes energy and causes uneven baking. On self-cleaning models, a stuck door lock after a clean cycle is a common call — usually a failed lock motor or a control board that didn't release the latch.
6. Gas Smell or Safety Valve Concerns
If you smell gas with all burners off, this is urgent. Possible causes: a leaking gas valve, a cracked supply line fitting, or a failed oven safety valve that isn't sealing when closed. We diagnose and repair the specific valve or fitting. Note: if you smell strong gas, ventilate the area and call SoCalGas (1-800-427-2200) before scheduling a repair.
