Five GE gas range symptoms. Clicking that continues even with every burner off points at a stuck knob switch first, then moisture or a misseated cap — a distinction worth making, because a switch failure keeps the module firing whether or not anything is wet. Uneven or yellow flames are usually ports clogged with food and grease, a crooked cap or an air shutter out of adjustment. A burner that will not light is most often a failed igniter or those same clogged ports.
Notice the state the stove is in when it misbehaves. Clicking with the knobs off is an electrical fault in the switch; clicking only while lighting is moisture or debris. That single observation reroutes the whole diagnosis, and it is why these guides ask what the stove is doing at rest before asking what it does under load. Cleaning comes next, and it resolves a large part of the flame complaints outright.
A burner that stays on after the knob is turned means the valve is not sealing, which is a hazard rather than an inconvenience — close the shutoff at the wall before anything else. A gas smell gets the same treatment: stop, ventilate, and do not keep testing. Clearing ports, drying electrodes and reseating caps are homeowner work; valves, orifices, air-shutter settings and gas connections are worth booking.

GE Gas Stove Uneven Flame? Causes & Fix
Most likely the burner ports are clogged with food and grease, so gas escapes unevenly. Other causes: a crooked burner cap, an air shutter out of adjustment (yellow sooty or noisy lifting flames), the wrong orifice after a propane conversion, or low gas pressure if every burner is weak. A correct flame is blue with small yellow tips; yellow flames make carbon monoxide.
