DG94-01496A Genuine OEM Samsung Gas Cooktop Valve Assembly
The DG94-01496A is a Genuine OEM Samsung replacement gas cooktop auxiliary valve assembly compatible with select Samsung gas cooktops in the NA30K, NA30N, NA36K, and related series. The valve assembly is the mechanical component that connects the burner knob to the gas supply manifold — when you turn the knob, the valve precisely regulates the flow of gas to the burner, controlling the flame size from low simmer to high heat. Without a properly functioning valve, the burner can fail to light, stay lit, shut off when turned, or stick in position making the knob unable to turn.
This is the auxiliary (single-flow) burner valve, used in burner positions that have a single flame ring. Samsung cooktops typically use multiple valve assemblies — one per burner position — and the center burner (dual-flame) uses a different dual valve assembly. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications, the DG94-01496A directly replaces AP6049694, EAP12072702, PD00052726, and PS12072702. Important: this is a gas appliance part — installation requires shutting off the gas supply, working safely with gas connections, and leak-testing after installation. Installs in 45–60 minutes with basic hand tools by experienced DIYers, or call a qualified appliance technician.
Quick Answer
The DG94-01496A Genuine OEM Samsung Gas Cooktop Valve Assembly fixes Samsung gas cooktops with a burner that won't light, won't shut off, where the knob is stuck or won't turn, or where flame size won't adjust properly. Auxiliary (single-flow) burner valve. Genuine OEM. Replaces AP6049694, EAP12072702, PD00052726, PS12072702. Compatible with Samsung NA30K6550TG/AA, NA30K6550TS/AA, NA30N6555TG/AA, NA36K6550TG/AA, NA36K7750TG/AA and related gas cooktops. Center (dual-flame) burner uses a different valve — confirm which burner position before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
- Burner won't light — gas not flowing through the valve to the burner
- Burner won't shut off — valve stuck open, gas continuing to flow even with the knob turned to "OFF"
- Knob stuck and won't turn — valve internally seized (often caused by water entering during cleaning)
- Burner flame size won't adjust — valve unable to modulate gas flow
- Flame too high even on low setting — valve not restricting flow properly
- Flame too low or weak on high setting — valve partially blocked
- Gas smell at the cooktop or burner area — valve seal failure
- Difficulty turning the knob — internal valve corrosion or wear

Compatibility
This valve assembly is compatible with select Samsung gas cooktops, including:
- Samsung gas cooktops — NA30K6550TG/AA-00, NA30K6550TS/AA-00 series
- Samsung gas cooktops — NA30N6555TG/AA-00 series
- Samsung gas cooktops — NA36K6550TG/AA-00, NA36K7750TG/AA-00 series
- Other Samsung gas cooktops in the NA-series using compatible auxiliary burner valves
Important — Confirm the Burner Position Before Ordering: Samsung gas cooktops use multiple valve assemblies — typically one per burner position. The DG94-01496A is the auxiliary (single-flow) burner valve. The center dual-flame burner uses a different valve assembly, and other burner positions may also have position-specific part numbers. Before ordering, verify in your cooktop's parts diagram that DG94-01496A is listed for the specific burner position you're replacing, or compare the old valve's part number markings to the new one. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Gas Appliance Safety Warning This part is installed in a gas cooktop. Always shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve before beginning any repair, and disconnect electrical power to the cooktop. After installation is complete, ALL gas connections must be checked for leaks using a soap-and-water solution or an approved gas leak detector before restoring full gas service. If you smell gas at any point during or after installation, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility provider. If you are not comfortable working with gas connections, have this repair done by a qualified appliance technician. Improper installation of gas components can cause fire, explosion, or carbon monoxide hazards.
⚠️ Wear Work Gloves — Significant Disassembly Required Shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve and disconnect electrical power. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Remove the burner caps, burner heads, and grates from the cooktop surface. The valve assembly is accessed by removing the cooktop top surface — this typically involves removing 16–20 screws around the perimeter of the cooktop to lift the top free. Photograph everything as you go, including the gas line routing and electrical wire connections. Once the top is off, locate the specific valve being replaced (confirm against the parts diagram and the burner position). Disconnect the gas line from the valve (use two wrenches — one to hold the manifold, one to turn the nut — to avoid stressing the manifold). Disconnect any electrical connections to the valve (spark ignitor wires) and remove the valve's mounting hardware. Install the new DG94-01496A valve in the same position with the same orientation, reconnect the gas line and any electrical connections, and secure the mounting hardware. Reinstall the cooktop top, burner heads, caps, and grates. Before restoring full gas service, turn on the gas at the shutoff valve and use a soap-and-water solution or gas leak detector on all gas connections to confirm there are no leaks. Restore electrical power and test the burner by lighting it and confirming smooth flame control across the full range of the knob. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, set of wrenches (two needed at each gas connection), gas leak detector or soap solution, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my burner knob stuck and won't turn?
A stuck burner knob is one of the most common symptoms of a failed valve assembly on Samsung gas cooktops — and one frequent root cause is water entering the valve during knob cleaning. When the knobs are washed (especially with soap and water) and water enters the valve through the knob shaft, it can rust the internal valve mechanism, causing the knob to seize. Once the valve is internally corroded, no amount of force on the knob will free it without risking damage — replacing the valve is the correct repair. To prevent recurrence on the remaining valves: clean knobs by wiping them in place rather than removing and submerging them, and dry the knob shaft area carefully before reinstalling.
Does this fit all five burners on my Samsung cooktop?
Not necessarily. Samsung gas cooktops typically use multiple valve assemblies — the surrounding burner positions (front-left, front-right, rear-left, rear-right) use auxiliary single-flow valves like the DG94-01496A, while the center burner is typically a dual-flame burner that uses a different dual-valve assembly. If you're replacing valves on more than one burner, confirm which position each valve is needed for and verify the part numbers in your specific model's parts diagram. The valves often look similar but are not interchangeable across positions.
Can I do this repair myself, or should I hire a technician?
Replacing a gas valve is a manageable DIY repair for someone comfortable with mechanical work, but it does involve disconnecting and reconnecting gas connections — which means leak testing is mandatory and any error can have serious safety consequences. If you have experience with plumbing or gas appliance work and you're confident in your ability to make tight, leak-free connections and properly test them, this is a feasible DIY. If you've never worked with gas connections before, hiring a qualified appliance technician (typical cost $200–$400) is the safer option. The PartsDr customer story mentioned that a quote from a service technician was $750 for this repair, so the DIY savings are substantial — but only if done safely.
My cooktop has more than one stuck or failed valve — should I replace them all at once?
If multiple valves have failed at the same time, it's worth considering. Once the cooktop top is off, all valves are accessible — replacing additional valves only adds 5–10 minutes per valve. Since the valves are exposed to the same age, use, and potential water intrusion, multiple valve failures often indicate the others are heading the same way. However, valve part numbers may differ by burner position (the center dual-flame valve is different from the auxiliary single-flow valves) — make sure you order the correct valve for each specific position.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications. It is the exact same gas cooktop valve assembly installed in compatible Samsung gas cooktops from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
