Three open burners fill out the 24-inch CG243T/S, Wolf’s mid-size sealed gas cooktop in Transitional trim, with mechanical knobs and spark ignition rather than any electronic touch panel. Being a fully mechanical design keeps the list of likely failure points short: burners, valves, igniters and the gas path between them.
A burner that will not hold a low simmer, with the flame lifting or turning yellow, is one of the more common calls on a cooktop this size — it usually means the burner’s simmer opening specifically has narrowed with debris or the burner cap has shifted slightly out of position, rather than anything involving the knob or valve.
