4. Installation Instructions
Safety First: Always disconnect your appliance from the power and gas supply before attempting any service or installation.
- Prepare the Appliance: Ensure the gas range is completely cool. Turn off the gas supply valve and unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.
- Remove Old Burner Cap: Carefully lift and remove the old surface burner cap from the burner head. If the old cap is stuck due to residue, gently pry it off.
- Clean Burner Head (Optional but Recommended): While the cap is off, inspect the burner head for any food debris or residue. Clean as necessary to ensure proper seating of the new cap and efficient flame.
- Install New Burner Cap: Place the new TERGTIRY WB29K10023 burner cap directly onto the burner head. Ensure it sits flat and is centered over the flame ports. The cap should rest securely without wobbling.
- Reconnect and Test: Once the new cap is securely in place, reconnect the gas supply and plug the appliance back into the electrical outlet. Turn on the burner to a low setting to verify that the flame is even and properly distributed around the cap.

5. Maintenance
Regular cleaning of your burner caps is essential for optimal performance and longevity. Food spills and grease can clog the flame ports or cause uneven heating.
- Daily Cleaning: After each use, allow the burner cap to cool completely. Wipe it with a damp cloth and mild dish soap to remove any light spills.
- Deep Cleaning: For stubborn stains or baked-on food, remove the burner cap and soak it in warm, soapy water for 15-30 minutes. Use a non-abrasive brush or sponge to scrub away residue. Rinse thoroughly and ensure it is completely dry before placing it back on the burner head.
- Avoid Abrasives: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or steel wool, as these can damage the finish of the cast iron.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues after installing your new burner cap, consider the following:
- Uneven Flame: Ensure the burner cap is seated correctly and is not tilted. Check for any debris blocking the flame ports on the burner head or the cap itself.
- Cap Does Not Fit: Double-check that the part number WB29K10023 is correct for your specific GE range model. Compare the new cap with your old one to confirm it is the correct size and design.
- No Flame or Weak Flame: Verify that the gas supply is fully open and that the appliance is properly connected to power. If other burners are working, the issue might be localized to the burner head itself, not the cap.
If problems persist, please refer to your appliance's main user manual or contact a qualified service technician.
