Château Range Cooktop (180 cm, same hob codes as Grand Palais 180)
La Cornue Château Cooktop 180 cm Repair

Most common issues on this model
- Every gas position igniting, or every induction zone responding
- Power burner or lava-rock grill heating on gas codes that have them
- Cutout fit, flush and level
The widest cooktop in the Château line, this 180 cm model shares its hob codes with the Grand Palais 180 range, in stainless steel with no oven beneath. It comes in gas, dual-fuel and induction forms. On gas, the options include a power burner and a lava-rock grill, so the number of positions to test is large.
We confirm the hob code first and test each position by its own method. On gas that means the flame at every burner, gas pressure, and the ignition and flame-safety device on any burner that lights and drops out, plus the power burner and lava-rock grill where fitted. On induction, we test pan detection, power-up and heat at each zone, and sort the symbols into status signs and errors.
There is no display on this cooktop, so we do not read codes. Fit in the cutout is checked, and model and serial come from the label before parts are ordered. A written price comes first.
Key features
- Widest Château cooktop, in stainless steel
- 180 cm (about 71 in) across, hob codes shared with the Grand Palais 180
- Gas, dual-fuel or induction by code
- No oven underneath
The power burner is weak but the others are normal. Why?
A weak power burner with normal neighbors points to that burner: its flame, ports and gas flow to its position. We check those before looking at gas pressure for the whole cooktop.
How do I tell a status symbol from an error on the induction side?
Pan detection and residual heat are normal signs that clear on their own. An error symbol stays and points to the hob. We identify which one you have and explain it.
Is this a different job from the range version?
The hob is tested the same way, but without ovens underneath. All of the work is on the surface, burner by burner or zone by zone.
