Refurbish a Universal Chef Range by Waste King Universal

Hi,

Please set up an appointment with a handyman with a site like Angi or Home Depot repair services to get an intial diagnostic. You might need to have the whole door replaced as the current oven door is safety hazard.

Thank you.

Plugged gas pipe which connects to the burner.

the ovan could be a thermostat 3" 2 6'' long probe my first gess or the ignitor top you need more help with could be a lot of things hope this helps a lititel

i have a magic chef gas range. broiler work, burners work, fan works when you turn the oven on, but oven does not get hot. could it be the electronic ignitor or does even have one.

The main solution of it is to clean the gas tube.

I have an old Universal Chef stove - we are replacing - it is probably a mid to late 60's - the oven pan is warped - otherwise it works fine - burners, knobs, grates etc. are good - willing to let go cheap - contact Chester Koch 573-898-5508 (Elsberry, MO)

try this.

If it doesnt fit your specs. then i would suggest u find a thermador parts place and begin to buy the parts for the griddle as replacement parts. find a model of the stove set up that you want and make a list of all the parts that go to the griddle attachment.

My guess is that the reason for the flat "No" on the retrofit was that griddles require a thermostat similar to the one on the oven and broilers do not. So if their is no room behind the face plate where the knob would go then you can't put in a griddle. The other issue might be that the burners for the griddle wont line up with the brackets that are holding up all the broiler burners now. The griddle burner looks exactly like the one from the over only smaller so it has to line up strait where a regular front and back burner have to line up offset. maybe since you have the broiler already that should not be an issue? Then the problem is finding the griddle top it self that is going to be spendy. I think the link i gave at the top is your best bet. good luck.

This happened to my DCS when the Hot Wire Relay went out. It isn't an expensive part, but finding someone that knows what needs to be replaced, and then can replace it is hard. My oven also did the opposite and continued to heat without shutting off, and it was once again the hot wire relay.
