CT-365
DCS CT-365 Five-Burner Cooktop Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Lifting flame at the center burner
- Knobs wobbling on their stems
- Grates rocking on the surface
- Burner dead after a boil-over
The DCS CT-365 is an older drop-in gas cooktop for a 36-inch cutout, with five sealed Dual Flow Burners, and it is also found as CT-365SS, CT-365BK and CT-365WT. The finish suffix tells which version you have.
A flame that lifts at the center burner often traces to the burner head sitting off its base or to a port problem, so we start there. Loose knobs and wobbling grates are mechanical and quick to check, but both can affect how a burner works. If a burner will not light after a boil-over, we dry it out and test the ignitor.
Because the CT-365 is an older drop-in, some parts are scarce, and we confirm availability before the repair. You see the price in writing first, and if a repair is not worth the money we tell you so. Gas line work stays with a licensed plumber, and we read the label before ordering.

Why does the center flame lift off the burner?
A lifting flame usually means the burner head is out of place or the ports are clogged. We clean and reseat the head, then check the flame at high and low.
Can loose knobs be fixed?
Often yes. We check whether the knob or the valve stem is worn, and which one needs attention. A new knob or a stem repair fixes most loose-knob complaints.
My CT-365 grates wobble. Does that matter?
Yes. Wobbling grates can make pots unsteady and sometimes shift burner caps. We check the rubber feet and the grate fit and replace what is worn.
