Should You Try to Resolve the Matter by Yourself

Strictly speaking, it might be possible for you to handle your Viking range repair by yourself, but before you start to remove various parts of your range top, stop and consider a few things.

  • How experienced are you when it comes to range repair? One of the things that make Viking ranges and freestanding ranges so popular is the state of the art technology that makes cooking with them a breeze. While all this technology makes cooking a pleasurable experience, it also makes do it yourself range repairs a great deal more complicated. If you’re not prepared to deal with the improve technology you should leave the Viking range repairs to the professional repair experts at Santa Barbara Appliance Repair.
  • Are you confident that you know what the problem is? If you haven’t diagnosed the issue and start pulling pieces and part out, there’s a real chance that you’ll do more damage than good. Besides, if you don’t know what the actual problem with the Viking range is, you won’t know what tools and parts you need.
  • Do you have time to see the project through to its completion? While the professionals at Santa Barbara Appliance Repair make repairing a Viking range or cooktop look fast and easy, you have to remember that it took them years to reach that point. Unless you have years of training and experience, you should anticipate the project taking a few hours to complete.

If you still feel that you’re ready to tackle the Viking range repair project on your own, the first thing you need to do is track down the owner’s manual you receive when you first purchased the appliance. This owner’s manual is a valuable resource. You don’t want to be without it. The best thing about the owner’s manual is that it’s full of all sorts of useful diagrams that show the various wiring patterns and the location of specific parts. It also includes a wide array of other general information you’ll find useful while you work on your range.

Different Viking Ranges

Viking has different ranges available and each one serves a different purpose. These ranges vary from small 30” ranges to large 48” ranges. Some are little more than a range top, while others are freestanding ranges and others have a custom sealed range top. While the basic function of each of these ranges is the same, the difference in each one poses different and interesting Viking range repair challenges. Another area where Viking ranges differ from one another is style. Depending on how you use your range, you might have one that features a very basic style, while others can be quite complex. Many of the commercial Viking ranges we’ve encountered have many special features that make repairing them uniquely challenging which is why we request information about the exact make and model of the Viking range you have when you book a repair appointment.

Common Viking Range Problems

While there are many different problems that can go wrong with a Viking range, the one that we get the most calls on is that the range’s heating element isn’t getting warm enough. There are several reasons that a Viking range may have stopped heating properly. When we get this type of call, the first thing we check out is the burner. We want to determine whether or not it’s producing the proper amount of heat. From there we look at the ignition switch. When these get old they will often become so worn that they stop producing the spark required to heat the range. We also check all of the wiring connected to the ignition switch. Before we can determine how to repair the Viking range that isn’t heating properly, we have to determine if the problem can be fixed by simply repairing a small problem with the burner or the ignition switch, or if we have to replace that entire piece. If the Viking repair expert that’s working on your range determines that the component needs to be replaced, they will only use parts that have been approved by Viking. We are diligent about only using Viking parts because we fell that the high quality of the factory approved parts makes it possible for us to guarantee any of the Viking repair jobs we complete. After all, a repair is only as good as the parts used to complete it. Additional Viking repair problems that we’ve worked to resolve to include:

  • Gas leaks
  • Controls that aren’t functioning properly
  • Burners that are either not working, or working sporadically
  • Broken sensors
  • Replacing faulty wiring
  • Broken auto ignitions
  • Digital display replacement
  • Burned out heating elements
  • Range hood repair
