WB21X20470 GE Oven Stove Burner Valve

Step 1: Unplug Your GE Stove

Before starting any repair work, make sure to unplug your GE stove from its power source. Doing so will eliminate any possibility of electrical shock or other hazards.

Step 2: Access the Burner Valve

Locate the burner valve by locating the screws in the back of the stove that secure the burner valve assembly in place. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws and carefully lift the burner valve out of the stove.

Step 3: Remove the Old Burner Valve

Now that you’ve accessed the burner valve, remove the old burner valve from its housing. Carefully disconnect the two wires connected to the valve and use needle-nose pliers to remove the nuts from the valve.

Step 4: Install the New Burner Valve

Once the old valve is removed, place the new WB21X20470 GE Stove Burner Valve in the housing and reconnect the two wires. Secure the valve in place using the nuts and washers that came with the new valve.

Step 5: Test the Burner Valve

Before putting the burner valve back into the stove, test the valve to ensure it is working properly. Plug the stove back in and turn on the burner. To test the valve, adjust the temperature settings and watch the flame size change. If the flame size does not change, shutoff the burner and recheck the connections.

Step 6: Reinstall the Burner Valve

Reinstall the burner valve by reversing the steps used to remove it. Secure the burner valve in its original position using the screws that were previously removed.

Step 7: Power Up the Stove

Plug the stove back into a power source and turn on the burner. If all of the steps have been completed correctly, the burner should function normally. If there are any issues with the burner, repeat the previous steps or call a professional for help.

Please keep in mind, these instructions are for general guidance and should always be used in conjunction with the manufacturer's manual, if available.
