Gas, Electric & Induction — What We Repair in Tampa Bay

We repair all three cooking technologies. Each has different failure modes — knowing the difference helps us diagnose faster and fix right the first time.

 

Gas stoves and ranges:

Burner won't ignite — usually a dirty igniter, faulty igniter switch, or weak spark module

Burner lights then goes out — thermocouple or flame sensor failure

Oven won't heat — igniter or gas valve fault (most common gas oven problem)

Gas smell — gas valve not closing fully — call us immediately, do not use the appliance

Brands: Wolf, Viking, Thermador, Samsung, LG, GE, Whirlpool, Bosch, KitchenAid

 

Electric stoves and ranges:

Surface element not heating — element has burned out or element block socket has failed

Oven not heating — bake element or broil element failure

Oven heats unevenly — one element working, one not, or temperature sensor fault

Control board not responding — panel fault or wiring issue

Brands: Samsung, LG, GE, Whirlpool, Maytag, Frigidaire, KitchenAid

 

Induction cooktops:

Burner not detecting pan — wrong cookware (must be magnetic) or sensor fault

Error code on display — usually pan detection error or control board fault

Burner not heating — induction coil failure or control board issue

Cracked glass — surface replacement required

Brands: Samsung, LG, GE, Bosch, KitchenAid, Wolf, Thermador, Miele

 

Oven Door Stuck After Self-Clean — What to Do

A locked oven door after a self-clean cycle is one of the most common oven calls we receive in Tampa Bay. The self-clean cycle runs at temperatures up to 900 degrees — the door lock is a safety mechanism that prevents the door from opening until the oven cools to a safe temperature.

 

If your oven door won't open after self-clean:

• Wait — the oven may still be cooling. Most ovens need 1 to 2 hours to cool after self-clean before the door unlocks automatically

• Try a hard reset — turn the oven off at the circuit breaker for 5 minutes, then back on

• If the door still won't open — the door latch motor or latch switch has failed and needs replacement

• Do not force the door — forcing it will break the latch assembly

 

We repair oven door latch failures same day. If the latch motor has burned out from the extreme heat of the self-clean cycle, we replace it with an OEM part in one visit.
