Replace burner for gas Stove

[DustinMobley232]

One of my burners on the stove in my 2019 E-PRO 19FBS has broke. Has anyone had to replace one of the burners, and if so where did you get the part?

Can you post a picture of it?
What make and model range/oven is it? Looking on the internet looks like it's a suburban.

It's very odd for an actual burner to break. Is it the actual burner itself that's broken?

Now that I've got all that out of the way. You may be able to find parts from the mfg. or you may be able to find parts for it at an RV salvage yard.

It is a suburban, still trying to find make and model. The part that broke is the part that sits on top of the metal bracket. Picture attached.

You might be able to get a small screw in there to hold it using a right angle sçrew driver. Looks like an Allen wrench but has a screw driver end. I would try that first.

I have a similar trailer and I'm sure the same range, gotta ask, how the hell does something like that break?

Looks like a pop rivit of some type.

I had the exact same thing happen on my stovetop not long after I bought my TT.

The burner "head" is secured to the support bracket with a small machine screw. It was loose and vibrated out while going down the road.

My solution:

Lift the top of the range. There's a spring clip at the center front. A stiff putty knife inserted, pushed in hard, and prying up will allow the top to swing up.

Remove the bracket which is held in place with a single phillips head screw.

Look around the area around the burners for the missing screw. Mine was under the igniter assy but it could be anywhere and it's hard to fall out of this "pan" that's designed to catch "boil overs".

Re attach the burner to bracket, reinstall bracket, and before tightening make sure burner tube is snug over the gas jet housing.

If you can't find the screw check out a hardware store like ACE, etc. They usually have trays of these small screws and you only have to buy one, of the right length (unlike Home Depot that forces you to buy packages of 3, 5, 6, etc.)

Hope you have the same luck as I had and find the screw. While you're at it, remove the other burners at the bracket, turn over, and tighten that same little screw. Heating and Cooling of the burner head's metal can cause the screw to loosen over time. Using thread sealer is ineffective due to the heat.

I agree with Titan Mike. The same thing happened to me. Look carefully inside the burner area of the stove. You will likely find the screw that fell out. It is pretty small.

this just happened to me on last trip, i can see the screw in the catch pan. Now I know how to repair this!

Thanks Folks.
