Maytag MGR5870BD Gas Cooktop Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Rattling or buzzing from the burner area
- Knob that clicks louder than before
- Fan or relay noise from the oven control
- Burner that hisses when lit
The MGR5870BD is a Maytag gas range, also listed as MGR5870BDB, MGR5870BDQ and MGR5870BDW. It burns gas at the cooktop and in the oven.
Noise is a good clue on a range like this. A hiss from a burner can mean gas escaping at a loose fitting or a blocked port. A buzz from the control area can mean a relay or a transformer. A rattle may come from a loose burner cap or a panel. We listen first, then trace the sound to its source.
Hissing is handled with a leak test at the burner valve and the fittings. Buzzing is traced with a meter at the control. Relays and burner parts are ordered by the number on the data plate. An estimate in writing comes first, and our labor carries a 30-day guarantee.

My MGR5870BD hisses when a burner lights. Is that a leak?
A soft hiss from the flame is normal air and gas mixing, but a hiss at the valve or fitting is not. We leak-test with a bubble solution to see where the sound comes from.
Why does the oven control buzz?
A relay or a power part on the control may be failing or loose. We locate the buzz, measure the output and replace the part only if it fails the test.
A burner cap rattles. Does it matter?
A loose cap changes how the flame spreads and can crack. We reseat or replace it, using the number on your label, and check the burner head underneath.
