Common Range Problems
A kitchen range combines the convenience of a stovetop with a full oven in one unit — and when either section fails, it disrupts your entire cooking routine. FixitBay LLC provides expert range repair throughout San Francisco, the Peninsula, and Marin County. We service freestanding ranges, slide-in ranges, drop-in ranges, and professional-style units from every major manufacturer.
Our licensed technicians are trained to work on gas ranges, electric ranges, and dual-fuel models. We diagnose and repair igniters, heating elements, temperature sensors, convection fans, gas valves, control boards, and door mechanisms. San Francisco's diverse housing — from compact apartment kitchens to expansive chef's kitchens — means we encounter every range type and configuration. We bring the right tools and parts for each.
Every service call begins with our $80 diagnostic fee, which is credited in full toward your repair. We stock common parts for popular range brands and complete most repairs on the first visit. For specialty or pro-grade range parts, we source from authorized distributors and schedule a return visit at no additional trip charge. All repairs are backed by our 180-day warranty on parts and labor.
When stovetop burners fire but the oven won't heat, the issue is typically a failed bake element, faulty igniter (gas ranges), or a broken temperature sensor. We isolate and fix the oven section.
Hot spots, underbaked centers, or burned edges indicate calibration drift, a failing convection fan, or worn heating elements. We test with precision instruments and restore even cooking.
Range burners that won't light or click endlessly have clogged igniter ports, failed spark modules, or gas valve issues. We clean, test, and replace components for reliable ignition.
Door locks that jam during or after self-clean cycles prevent oven use. We safely release stuck locks and repair the latch mechanism, motor, or control board causing the issue.
Ranges need orifice and regulator changes when switching between natural gas and propane. We perform safe, code-compliant conversions and test all burners and the oven afterward.
Error codes, blank displays, or unresponsive touchpads indicate control board or overlay failures. We diagnose electronic issues and repair or replace control components.
Bent hinges, broken springs, or misaligned door seals let heat escape, wasting energy and causing uneven cooking. We realign, replace, and adjust door hardware.
Dual-fuel ranges combine gas burners with an electric oven, doubling potential failure points. We diagnose both systems — gas supply, igniters, elements, and electronic controls.

Range Repair vs. Replacement — How to Decide
Ranges combine cooktop and oven in one unit. Most failures affect only one section and are very repairable.
| Situation | Repair | Replace |
|---|---|---|
Age under 12 years Ranges last 15–20 years. A single burner or element failure is an easy, cost-effective repair. | — | |
One burner not working Individual burner components (igniters, switches, elements) cost $100–$250 to replace. | — | |
Multiple system failures simultaneously If both the cooktop and oven sections have major failures, combined repair costs may approach replacement value. | — | |
Cosmetic or knob damage Knobs, grates, and drip pans are inexpensive replacement parts that don’t justify a new range. | — |
Range Symptoms Checklist
Usually a clogged igniter port, faulty spark module, or a worn igniter that isn’t generating a strong enough spark.
Often a burned-out surface element, failed infinite switch, or a loose wiring connection at the terminal block.
Points to a faulty bake igniter (gas) or burned-out bake element (electric), or a miscalibrated oven sensor.
A gas leak at the supply valve, burner tube, or connection fitting. Turn off gas and call for immediate service.
Worn or broken door hinges, a warped door frame, or a misaligned latch mechanism preventing a proper seal.
Typically food debris or grease buildup in the burner ports. A thorough cleaning often restores even flame distribution.
How We Diagnose and Fix Ranges
We test all burners, igniters, heating elements, switches, oven sensors, and the control board. Gas ranges get a full leak check at every connection point.
Written estimate on the spot. We stock igniters, elements, switches, and common sensors. Premium brand parts for Wolf, Viking, or Thermador are available next business day.
After repair, we test every burner for proper ignition and flame pattern, verify oven temperature accuracy, and confirm all controls function correctly. Backed by our 180-day warranty.
