Robert for Model Number SGCS365RS

Serial Number 81070274NB I am having trouble with my XLO burners. Originally, one of two stopped working while the other worked fine. I just purchased and installed your Simmer Kit 497234 (AP3872617) - replacing the Simmer controller and both Potentiometers. With all three installed, my Spark Module "freaked" when I plugged in. It initiated sparking, and the light came one, without any of the gas valve knobs being turned. First - were these not the right components for my model/serial number? From the part numbers, it seemed correct. Then, after reinstalling my original Simmer Ctlr and Potentiometers, both XLOs now do not work. When either XLO knob is turned, no sparking begins. Any idea for what would cause that to happen? I double checked all the connections at the Simmer control, as well as the potentiometer harnesses, and they all seem solid.

Robert, This kit would be the correct simmer kit for your unit. You will want to check the wire harnesses for the potentiometers to make sure that they are not bad. This is what it sounds like the issue is.

Eric for Model Number Thermador SGCS365RS - Gas 5 burner cook top

How do I gain access to the potentiometers located just underneath the valve stems? I think I have a bad one and would like to test them by swapping the known good one with the bad one. Do I need a special tool to take off the burner assemblies or do I just put a 20mm hex socket on the burner base and give it a good pull, as they appear to be "baked" on? (I also see a very small hex nut deep inside the burner, does that need to come off too?) All of this is because one of the simmer burners (the front one) has virtually no range in heat and turns on the xlo function prematurely. Thank you

Hello Eric, You will need to remove the control panel to access the potentiometers. This is somewhat of a major job so I would have the replacement parts in hand before the procedure since it is too big a job to do twice. There is no special tool that works any better than a socket to remove the burners. You can soak them in penetrating oil overnight to make them remove a bit easier. Before re-installing them, be sure to put some cooking oil or grease on the threads to prevent thread seize. Do not tamper with the small hex since this is the orifice and does not hold anything in place.

Jennifer, To replace the potentiometer for your unit you will need to replace the simmer control kit which will come with the simmer control and 2 potentiometers. The part number for the Simmer control kit is 00497234.

Simon, The place to start would be the potentiometer 00422749, It's the more suseptable component in the system. Based on your post, thats where you want to start. Thanks
