Ceran stock top chipped and cracked

Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly
Everything I am reading says this unit comes with an LPG conversion Kit. It may have been removed by the detailer / retailer that you purchased it from (when ever that was.)

The 0.0354 orfices are supposed to be in the front of the inside of the cooktop and are labeled LP.
It is a matter of removing the 4 Natural Gas orifices and installing the LP orfices and then adjusting the air-flow of the grill burner Air Shutters as shown in the manual on page 32.

The center nut has to be removed from the top of the internal gas regulator and the mini post / plunger inverted and then the nut is reinstalled.

Just note that any conversions are supposed to performed by a qualified gas technician as stated by the WARNING in the manual on page 30.

The manual is here:

The step by step instructions are in the product user guide on page 30

Yes the glass is replaceable, you will have to order a new one, and you could do so through an appliance parts store. They can even put it in for you.

Yes, thats okay when you turn the knob voltage gets sent to the spark module, Then the module sparks all the burner igniter. And frame ignition only happens on the single burner of the knob you turned that sends gas to the burner associated with that knob.


Please rate me a "4" if this information was useful.

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote that will help figure out why the burner spark keeps on clicking...

Yes you can as long as there ae two heat controls for the grill side of the stove/cooktop. That allows one burner control for each of the burners. You should be able to order directly from GE but I would also check out repairclinic.com since they normally sell OEM GE parts cheaper than you can buy them from GE. At least check out the price at both sources beforw purchasing.

It is sparking because the module does not sense the heat which would normally cause the sparking to stop.

It can be caused by a poor ground, make sure the ignitor at that burner is clean and free from any obstructions. If it is then it could either be a defective ignitor or spark module.

Hello
I have the one with the 4 burners and the grill, and when the grill in on the fan has to come on, and it does automaticly, but once you finish with the grill you have to change it back to stove mode by putting the 2 burners back or the fan will allways go on when you turn the switch. It is a safety regulation for the fan to be on with the grill to avoid the fumes......I know I hate that too.
Hope this help

I want to say that since I posted my original problem with black spots appearing on the Schott Ceran top, I took pictures of the top and attached them to a complaint sent to Maytag. Approximately 3 days later, a Maytag representative phoned and offered a brand new top-basically stating that there is a fault with the tops. They would not pay for the labor to replace the top. My husband downloaded the instructions from Maytag website and installed it himself. These spots actually appear from within the surface and are not the result of a boil over, etc. The spots on my burner grew to the width of the burner. If you search the internet, you will see many others with the same problem with the Schott Ceran tops. I will never buy another!
