The flame is too high on my GE Profile gas cooktop

This sounds as though the pressure is too high.

You may have to hold them down whilst turned on to intitise s flame then release the knob the flame should stay on as the fsd has proved to the gas tap there is a flame so will stay on

Hi, W/D here.

I can tell you how I have done a similar appliance. I contacted my local propane company. They had all of the orifices, and cross reference guides necessary to convert it over to propane and they did it for free. Contact your local company. If your's won't do it for free like mine, they can surely get you the parts reasonably, and provide further guidance.

Best regards, --W/D--

Hi,

Your problem could be or probably is with the regulator...too much gas pressure...

Propane, LP, or Natural Gas Regulator Problems

Hello, Is this a new unit? Is it still under warranty? Has it been recently worked on or converted to another type gas? I'd call the manufacturer (or the company that installed it) and have them send out a qualified technician to fix it. Are the burner flames a nice even blue color? Can you adjust the flames from high to simmer without them going out. If it was converted to another gas type, it's possible the wrong size orifices were put in or possibly that it needs to be converted because it is a natural gas unit that should be changed to propane, or vice-versa. Also be sure the appliance regulator was switched over to the correct type of gas. These are just a few ideas that come to mind. Let me know if any of these apply. Douglas

make sure the unit has been converted to propane they are naturally set for natural gas from the factory

hi gud day...try to remove the nozzle inside the burner base using open wrench(depend the size)the use vacium,put the vacium were the place of the nozzle,i think there some dirt inside..then return it again the nozzle to check if it works,,if not replace the regulator for the 2nd sollution.

You have trash, corrosion or a mis-aligned part.
Check and repair these and you will be fine.

Buy the Burners for my 36" GE Gas cooktop.

remove the burners and adjust the air ration with the slide at the bottom of the burner tube
