Whirlpool Gas Cooktop - Low Flames
Hi,
I tried to clean the ignitor on one of the burners on my Whirlpool Gas cooktop. I turned off the GAS valve to the cooktop, cleaned the ignitor. WHen I turned back the gas valve on and lighted the burner, it burns with very small flame. All the 4 other burners have a small flame as well.
PLease help me. THe service guy can't take it make till monday. I need to get this fixed today.Thank you.

Try turning the valve off and on a couple times. It sounds like there is an obstruction or maybe the pressure regulator gave it up. You're sure you're turning the valve all the way? Let us know what happens. Thanks. The repair guy doesn't do Sat or evening appts.? Can you you post the model #?
