Sixty inches wide, the PRD606WEG is the flagship of Thermador’s dual-fuel line. Two open gas burners share the cooktop with a double griddle, and below sit two electric ovens. Unlike the 48” dual-fuel models, which pair a large oven with a small one, these are equal at 3 cu ft each, with their own 3-level telescopic racks, so the approach to a cold cavity does not depend on which oven it is. Finding out which one is affected always comes first.
The double griddle takes up most of the cooktop. A griddle that heats unevenly is a common complaint, and we trace it first to the valve and igniter that serve the griddle, not to the open burners.
Given the amount of gas hardware involved, a burner or griddle that will not light, together with any gas smell, means closing the range’s gas valve before any other step.
It means a heating problem in either one follows the same steps. First we establish which cavity is affected, then we test its element, sensor, and wiring.
We start with the valve and igniter dedicated to the griddle, since it is controlled apart from the open burners. Fixing the wrong part first would only waste time, so the order matters.
Frequently. Binding tends to come from the telescopic mechanism itself, so we inspect the slide and the oven's rack supports during the visit. If a rack is damaged rather than just stiff, we tell you before replacing it.
