Twenty-seven are the Professional style, six are Classic and eight Contemporary. Burner counts run from four to eight, and the wider machines carry a griddle between the burner groups. Series 9 accounts for twenty-three of them. ### The failures behind the calls - **Ignition**: no spark, spark without lighting, or lighting and dropping out. Three different answers to one complaint. - **The low setting**, specifically — a flame that holds on high and dies on simmer, which points at flame sensing rather than gas. - **The oven sensor**, the commonest reason an oven runs hot or cold while looking entirely healthy, and a cheap part with an accurate diagnosis. - **Elements and the convection fan** on the electric side of a dual-fuel machine. - **Induction power boards and their cooling** on machines built into a warm run of cabinetry. - **The self-clean lock** and the door hinges under a genuinely heavy door. - **The griddle zone**, which is its own circuit and its own repair. ### Codes on a range The same short list as the wall ovens — **A1** overheat, **A2** and **A3** door lock, and an **F plus a number** the maker prints as a technical error with no table behind it. Note the exact code and let the machine cool before you cut power to it: the cooling fans need that power to bring the temperature down. ### What to have ready when you call Model number, fuel — gas, dual fuel, induction or electric — which burner or which oven, and the code if there is one.

What to have ready when you call Model number, fuel — gas, dual fuel, induction or electric — which burner or which oven, and the code if there is one. ### The flame goes out when I turn it down low. This is the maker's own most-linked complaint on a freestanding cooker, and it is usually the burner rather than the gas supply. A cap sitting a fraction out of place, ports blocked by boil-over, or a flame-sensing thermocouple that no longer holds the valve open at a low flame — that last one is why the flame survives on high and dies on simmer. Take the cap off cold, check it is seated squarely, and clear the ports. If a clean, correctly seated burner still will not hold a simmer, the sensing side is the repair. ### What is different about repairing a dual-fuel range? It is two machines in one cabinet. Gas on top with burners, valves and ignition; electric underneath with elements, a convection fan, a sensor and a control board. A complaint about the top and a complaint about the oven have nothing to do with each other, and a range where the ovens are perfect and one burner is out is a small job. Saying which half is misbehaving when you book is the single most useful thing you can do for the visit. ### My induction range cuts a zone out mid-cook. Usually heat rather than the coil. Every induction position has a power board under it, those boards make heat, and they are cooled by a fan that pulls air through the base of a range built into a run of cabinetry. Check that nothing is stored tight against the back or sides, that the plinth vent is clear, and whether the same zone drops out with a different pan. If one zone fails with everything clear, that zone's board or its sensor is the repair. ### Is the griddle repaired on its own? Yes, and that is good news for the bill. On these ranges the griddle is a separate heated zone with its own control and its own sensor, sitting in the middle of a cooktop that is otherwise fine. The rest of the range keeps working while a part is on order, and nothing about the ovens underneath is involved. ### The dial halo stays red when I use the grill function. The maker publishes an article about exactly this, and on most machines it is behavior rather than a breakdown — the halo indicates the function is engaged and stays lit while the grill element is being driven. What is worth a call is a halo that stays red on a cold, switched-off range, or one that no longer matches what the range is actually doing. That is the control side rather than the cooking side. --- **[Read full article: Ranges](https://fisherpaykelmiami.support/appliances/range/)**
