American Range Residential ARROB Gas Stove Problems

Frequently Asked Questions

What goes wrong first on these appliances?

Ignition. A cap out of position, a blocked port or a damp electrode account for most burners that will not light.

Can burner parts go in the dishwasher?

Caps and crowns often survive it, but they must be bone dry before refitting. A damp burner is the usual cause of endless clicking.

Can I keep cooking on the other burners?

If there is no smell of gas and only one burner is affected, generally yes. Any smell of gas means stop.

Where is the rating plate?

Behind a drawer, along a front frame edge, or on the rear panel, depending on the model.

How dry does an electrode need to be?

Completely. A trace of moisture keeps a hob clicking, so allow hours rather than minutes.
