8583540139208 Genuine Medium Burner Cap (Burner Top) in Black for Electrolux Gas Cooktops, Medium Burner Replacement Top

Part 8583540139208 is a genuine Electrolux burner top for the medium burner on Electrolux gas cooktops, finished in black. The cap sits on the burner head and helps spread the gas evenly to the flame ports around its edge. Caps vary in size and design between cooktop ranges, so compare the diameter and look of your old cap before ordering 8583540139208.

Signs the medium burner cap on your cooktop needs replacing

The burner cap covers the top of the burner head and shapes the ring of flame. If it is cracked, warped, badly chipped or sitting crooked, the flame can burn unevenly, lift away from the burner, look ragged on one side or struggle to light. Enamel caps also lose their coating after years of spills and scrubbing, which lets corrosion start. A cap that has been dropped or bent rarely sits flat again. Fitting a new cap is the first easy check when one burner starts behaving differently from the others.

Seating the new burner top

Make sure the burner knob is off and the cooktop is cool. Lift away the trivet and the old cap, then wipe the burner head and check the ports are clear of food and grease. Lower the new cap on so it locates and sits completely flat. Light the burner and look for an even blue flame all the way round. If the flame is still poor with the new cap fitted, have a licensed gas fitter check the burner.
