Default No gas flow
Brand: Kenmore
Model Number: 41793042300
Age: 1 - 4 years

it all started with a intermitant "clicking". i changed the radiant sensor but that did not fix it.igniter heats up but suspect that the gas valve is defective. i found an adjustment screw above the pipe conected to the valve assmbly.it is a brass screw covering a plastic plug type screw.will this adjust the flow?could it be clogged?should i just replace the whole gasgas valve?

You should call a service tech, gas leaks and mistakes aren't worth your life.
