Frequently Asked Questions
•What is the correct gas pressure for my Maytag range?
The correct gas pressure is typically 4-5 inches of water column (WC) for natural gas and 10-11 inches of water column (WC) for propane. Refer to the range's model specific installation guide or the rating plate located on the unit for precise pressure specifications.
•How do I test the gas regulator solenoid with a multimeter?
First, disconnect power to the range. Then, disconnect the wires from the gas regulator solenoid. Set your multimeter to measure resistance (Ohms). Place the multimeter probes on the solenoid terminals. A healthy solenoid should have a specific resistance value (typically around 100-300 Ohms depending on the model). An open circuit (infinite resistance) or a short circuit (zero resistance) indicates a faulty solenoid.
•Where can I find a replacement gas regulator for my Maytag range?
You can find a replacement gas regulator from authorized Maytag parts dealers, appliance parts suppliers, or online retailers that specialize in appliance parts. Make sure to have your range's model number handy to ensure you get the correct part.
