CTD-365
DCS CTD-365 Gas Cooktop Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Simmer staying too hot on the low setting
- Ignitor wiring shorting out beneath the top
- Burner cap discolored or warped
- Burner clicking but not lighting
The CTD-365 is a five-burner drop-in gas cooktop for 36-inch cutouts, sold around 2006 to 2008. Its Dual Flow Burners cover everything from a gentle simmer to a full boil, and the sealed surface makes it easier to wipe clean.
When owners tell us the simmer will not go gentle enough, we look at the burner’s inner ring, the low-flame setting at the valve, and the ports. Ignitor wires can also be a problem on a cooktop this age; heat and moisture damage insulation, and a wire that shorts under the top can make a burner click without lighting. We trace that wire when the signs point to it.
We confirm the availability of parts before work, tell you plainly if a repair is not worth it, and give a written price first. The exact model and serial from the data label go on the parts order.

Why is my simmer too hot?
A simmer that stays too hot can come from the low-flame setting at the valve, a clogged inner port, or a worn valve. We check the setting and the ports before replacing a part.
What does a shorted ignitor wire do?
It can make a burner click without lighting, or make several burners spark at once. We test the wire and its insulation and replace what is damaged.
Is the sealed surface easy to clean?
Yes, the sealed surface helps keep spills out of the cooktop. Still, keep ports clear and burner caps seated after cleaning, since that is where most lighting problems start.
