Viking pro-style ranges in Bothell, read at the flame
Burners that click without lighting, a simmer that flares, a griddle heating on one side: the gas side of a Viking range measured burner by burner in Bothell kitchens.
What people call about
- One burner clicks forever but never lights
- Simmer setting flares up and scorches sauces
- Yellow, lazy flame instead of a tight blue cone
- Griddle plate heats on one side only
How the diagnosis runs
On a pro-style range the diagnosis starts at the flame: whether each burner lights, how quickly, and what colour it burns. Then the spark — whether the module fires and whether the spark reaches the burner base — and finally gas pressure at the manifold, read on a manometer with the burners running.
A dual-fuel range adds an electric oven underneath, measured the way the oven page describes. A range that sits between built cabinets is brought forward on its own feet to reach the back, and goes back only once its anti-tip bracket is engaged again.
What the repair costs
These are the printed bands that can apply to this appliance. You hear which one yours is in, and the exact figure within it, before any panel is lifted.
Service call
One flat $89 pays for the technician's visit and a complete diagnosis; say yes to the repair and all of that $89 is knocked off its price.
After the diagnosis you get one written number for the repair. Agree to it and the $89 is subtracted from that number; turn it down and nothing more is owed.
Repair bands
- Igniter or burner assembly $180–$450
- Oven thermostat or heating element $200–$460
- Control board or touch panel $420–$600
The figure inside a band moves with the part your model takes and with how much of the unit must be freed from the cabinet run to reach it.

We could smell gas near the back of the range whenever the oven lit. He pressure-tested the manifold and found a weeping fitting behind the kick panel. Tightened, retested, reading shown to me.

Two burners on our 48-inch range had gone lazy and yellow, and another company wanted to replace both assemblies. He checked manifold pressure before touching a part — the regulator had drifted out of spec. Both are back to a tight blue cone.

Our rangetop lost the spark on two burners after a dishwasher flood soaked the cabinet. He replaced the module and dried out the harness plugs instead of selling us a whole burner assembly.

Tell us the symptom and the model; we will tell you what it points to.
Often the phone call alone narrows it to one part. If it needs a visit, the $89 service call is deducted from the repair you approve, and the price is written down before a panel comes off.
