Viking Gas Range Parts, Defined
In one sentence
A gas range part is one of the handful of components that between them decide whether a Viking burner lights, holds a low flame and stays lit — and knowing which of them your range is complaining about is the difference between a repair you can price and a morning of guessing.

Seven definitions, written for the person describing a fault down a telephone rather than for the person who will fix it. Each says what the part does, how it behaves when healthy, what it does as it fails, and what it costs to keep ignoring. None lists a part number: a number quoted against the wrong model wastes a visit, so it is read off the rating plate at the call.
Seven components, in alphabetical order
- Appliance pressure regulator
- Steadies what the house supplies before any burner on the range sees it.
- Burner gas valve
- The tap behind the knob that decides how much gas one burner gets.
- Burner head and cap
- The two loose pieces that decide what shape the flame takes.
- Griddle burner
- The long burner beneath the plate, and the control meant to hold it steady.
- Orifice
- The drilled fitting that meters gas into a burner, sized for one gas only.
- Spark electrode
- The ceramic spike at the burner rim that the spark jumps from.
- Spark module
- Steps mains power up into the pulses every burner lights from.
Follow-ups
Do I need to know which part has failed before I ring?
No. Describing what the burner does is enough, and it is usually better evidence than a guess at a part. These pages exist so the conversation is quicker, not so it becomes an exam. Viking Pro Appliance Repair Los Angeles takes that description on (213) 516-4020 and works the rest out at the range.
Will you fit a part I have already bought myself?
Talk to us first. Half the parts bought online for a professional range are for a neighbouring model and will not seat, and a part fitted before the fault is confirmed usually leaves the fault. Call Viking Pro Appliance Repair Los Angeles on (213) 516-4020 before ordering anything and we will say what fits.
Are these Viking parts, or copies?
Genuine and factory-approved parts, chosen to match what came off the range. Where an equivalent is the sensible choice you are told which it is before it goes in, never afterwards. Any question about a specific component goes to Viking Pro Appliance Repair Los Angeles on (213) 516-4020.
