Fisher & Paykel RDV2-364GD-N_N Dual Fuel Range with Griddle Service

The RDV2-364GD-N_N is a 36-inch Series 9 dual fuel range with four burners and a griddle. The cooktop is rated at 97000 BTU, with the strongest burner at 23500 BTU. That kind of output suits a home cook who runs the griddle and a few burners at once, and the range usually stands in a wall run flanked by cabinets.
With this much heat, the pieces closest to the flame wear first. Igniters foul with grease, and the griddle burner can develop a ragged flame as residue builds in its ports. Higher burner output also puts more thermal stress on the oven door gasket and hinges over time.
We start at the griddle burner and the closest igniters, then move to the oven sensor. Should you ever detect gas, get outside and call the gas utility. You will receive a written price before any work begins, and the repair is covered by our 30-day workmanship warranty.
A slow light-up usually points to residue on the griddle burner ports or a weak spark. We clean the burner, check the igniter, and test the flame along its full length before replacing parts.
A cooktop of that output throws off a lot of heat and grease, so a capable hood helps. We cannot size a hood from here, but we can tell you if poor airflow is wearing out the controls.
We place a thermometer in the cavity, run a preheat cycle, and compare the real temperature to the setting. If it drifts, the sensor is the usual suspect, and the door seal is the next.
