Range Repair
Ignition, simmer control and altitude-related burner faults on Viking professional ranges.
What people describe when they call
- Burner ticks for a minute or more before it finally catches
- Flames burn tall and orange instead of tight and blue
- Simmer setting drops out and the flame dies
- Griddle or grill section heats at one end and stays cool at the other
How the fault gets found
A professional rangetop is mostly gas and metal: an orifice, a venturi, a spark electrode and a burner cap. Nearly everything that goes wrong at the burner is one of those four, and three of them are cleaning or adjustment rather than parts.
Altitude is the part nobody mentions on delivery day. The higher you are, the less gas a burner needs for the same flame, and Denver is a mile up. A rangetop still jetted for sea level burns tall and orange, sooties the grates and will not hold a simmer no matter how carefully you set the knob.
- Manifold pressure at the regulator, read against the rating plate
- Orifice size on every burner, and whether an altitude set was ever fitted
- Spark electrode and igniter cap for cracks, soot and moisture
- Air shutter position and blocked ports across the burner head

What the visit was actually like
4.9/ 51,040 reviews
Front burner ticked away for a minute before catching, every single time. It was a cracked igniter cap, not the spark module we had been told to replace. Lights straight away now.
Orson B.Sloan's Lake
Griddle heated along the back and stayed cool at the front. One element leg had gone open, which he measured in front of me. Part swapped, then he cooked a pancake on it to be sure.

Two burners kept dropping out under a full pot in the galley kitchen of our 1890s Victorian. A soaked spark electrode and one worn burner cap. Properly fixed; the star is for the wait on parts.
