How to Replace the Top Burner Ignitors for a Maytag Gemini Range

If one of the burners on your Maytag Gemini stove top no longer functions, replace it -- instead of the entire cook top. Once you purchase the replacement burner, you only need a screwdriver and spare time to install the new part. Although you can schedule a service call for repairs, you'll pay more, of course, than if you replaced the part yourself.

  Remove the stove top and set it face down on several folded towels.

  Disconnect the broken burner. Set aside the screws and ensure all wires are disconnected before removing the burner.
