Is This the Right Part?
Common Symptoms
- The 7-inch surface element does not heat when its control is turned on.
- The element heats unevenly or more slowly than expected.
- The element does not visibly glow red while operating, although normal cycling can occur.
Check Before Replacing
- Confirm the appliance has power and that the correct surface-element control is being used.
- With the appliance switched off and completely cool, visually inspect the element and its accessible terminals for visible damage, scorching, or loose connections.
- Verify that cookware is centered, appropriately sized, and has a flat bottom before treating slow or uneven heating as an element problem.
- If electrical testing is necessary, disconnect power first and have a qualified technician check the element circuit and control; do not perform live 240-volt testing unless properly trained and equipped.
