Whirlpool WPW10128766 Washer Surface Burner Valve

The Whirlpool WPW10128766 surface burner valve is not intended for use with a washing machine. It's a part made especially to control the flow of gas to a cooktop burner on a Whirlpool range. This valve combines the functions of a switch and a flow control device. When you flip the burner knob on your range, it connects to this valve. A predetermined quantity of gas can pass through to the burner by opening or closing the valve by turning the knob. A malfunctioning surface burner valve can cause irregular flames, trouble lighting the burner, and even gas leakage. Replacing a faulty valve with a genuine Whirlpool WPW10128766 part assures appropriate gas flow management and the safe operation of your cooktop burner.
