Maytag MGC6536BD Gas Cooktop Repair

Most common issues on this model

  1. Burner that will not stay lit
  2. Uneven flame around the burner ring
  3. Smell of gas when a knob is turned
  4. Knob stiff or turning without effect

The MGC6536BD is a Maytag gas cooktop, also sold as MGC6536BDB and MGC6536BDW. It is a neighbor of the MGC6430BD in number, though we treat the two as separate models.

A burner that will not stay lit may have a poorly positioned electrode or a clogged port, and an uneven flame around the ring tells us part of the ring is blocked. A gas smell when a knob is turned deserves an immediate stop: close the supply valve and call us. A knob that turns without effect may have a worn stem or a damaged valve, and we confirm which before replacing anything.

We leak test after all repairs, read the label for the full number, and give you a written price first. A 30-day workmanship warranty covers the work.

MGC6536BDMGC6536BD questions
Why does the flame go around only part of the ring?

Some ports are blocked. We clean the whole ring and check the cap seating.

What should I do if I smell gas at a knob?

Close the supply valve, ventilate the kitchen and call us. We inspect the valve and connections and test them for leaks before the cooktop is used again.

What if the knob turns freely?

The valve stem may be worn or detached. We inspect it and replace the knob or valve, depending on what we find.
