ARRRRRRRGH!! I Can't Put It Back Together! UPDATE!!

SIGH! We Managed to melt half a pound of butter all over the stop top and down onto the catch pan of the stove top. It is a MAYTAG GAS RANGE Model # CLY2220BDB. I had to take the central flash burner tube assembly apart to clean the goop off of the piece and the two spring clips came off before I could see how they were attached.

Could somebody with a similar type stove top take a close up picture of the central flash tube assembly and post it up either here or in a PM so that I can figure this out? I downloaded the manual for this range. However, the schematic was of no help in detailing the assembly of the flash tube unit.

Thanks and Cheers!

Mike

Hi guys! Thanks for your replies! Unfortunately, there is no joy in the kitchen and no nookie in the bedroom if I don't get this fixed! Yes, I already have the manual and the schema that it shows does not give the image that I need! No, I haven't lost any parts, I just can't get them back together properly! I do like your term "inelegant tinkering". Too late now to preach to the choir about taking before pictures. That is my normal practice for engines and other complex things. I guess my overconfidence told me "phhht! how complicated can it be". Well, now I know!

What I really need is a picture of the complete, installed in place unit that shows me where these darned spring clips/hooks attach to.

Thanks again folks!

Mike

I take pictures before I take unfamiliar stuff apart.
