Reasons Behind Your Oven Burner's Inability to Sustain a Flame
Dealing with an oven burner that refuses to maintain a flame can indeed be a nuisance. This inconvenience often stems from several prevalent issues, including:
· A malfunctioning or underpowered igniter.· Issues pertaining to the gas supply.· Blocked or clogged burner ports in the oven.
Let's delve deeper into these potential underlying causes.
Faulty Igniter
The igniter functions by heating to an intense white-hot state, subsequently igniting the gas emanating from the oven burner to warm the oven interior. As it is wired in conjunction with the safety gas valve, the valve remains closed until it senses that the igniter has reached a sufficient temperature to ignite the gas.A feeble igniter might adequately heat and ignite the burner upon initially starting the oven. However, once the burner has heated the oven to the desired temperature and cycles off, a weak igniter may fail to reach the necessary heat level to reignite the burner when it attempts to cycle back on in order to maintain the set oven temperature.
Should your oven's pilot light fail to remain lit, it might signify a problem with the gas supply. Ensure that the gas valve supplying your oven is fully open. Additionally, inspect the gas line for any obstructions or bends that might be impeding the flow of gas.
· Examine the Gas Supply Line
A clogged or malfunctioning gas supply line can cause the oven to fail in maintaining a flame. Always ensure that the gas valve is fully opened and check the line for any blockages.
· Purge the Burner Openings
Should the burner ports become clogged with debris, it may lead to the flame extinguishing. To resolve this, turn off the gas supply and meticulously disassemble the burner. Employ a soft brush or compressed air to clean the ports thoroughly, ensuring they are completely clear of any obstructions.
