RDV-486GL
DCS RDV-486GL Six-Burner Grill Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Grill burner flame and radiants
- Six surface burners
- Electric oven bake and broil
- Hood and ventilation use during grilling
- Door and gasket wear
With six burners and a grill, the RDV-486GL is a 48-inch dual fuel range that gives owners both stovetop and indoor grilling in one appliance. The oven is electric. It is an older model from the DCS Professional line and is still found in many large kitchens.
We check the grill first because it works hardest: the flame should be even along the burner, and the radiants should not be clogged with grease. Then we test each of the six cooktop burners, and move to the oven for bake, broil and temperature checks. If you use the grill often, a weak flame may only mean it needs a thorough cleaning, and we will tell you that rather than sell a part.
Some parts for this older range are scarce, so we confirm them before repairing and give you a written price. Any gas line or shutoff work beyond the appliance should go to a licensed plumber. We back our repairs with a 30-day workmanship warranty, and we read the model and serial number from the label before ordering.

Error codes this model can show
My grill range smells like grease when it heats. Is that a problem?
Often it is built-up residue, but we check to be sure. If you smell gas, turn off the burner, ventilate, and call your gas provider before using it again.
How is the 486GL different from other 48-inch DCS ranges?
It has six burners and a grill, while other 48-inch models in this family have a griddle or a different burner count. The grill adds radiants and its own burner to our checklist.
Can a weak grill flame be fixed without replacing parts?
Sometimes. Cleaning clogged ports often restores the flame. We test first and quote any part in writing. If a part is needed, the price is in writing before we replace anything.
