Common Symptoms
- Small burner does not heat when the control knob is turned on.
- Burner remains on high instead of reducing to lower settings.
- Burner will not turn off when the knob is set to Off.
- Heat output is intermittent or fluctuates abnormally.
- The burner provides only full heat or no heat.
Check Before Replacing
- Allow the cooktop to cool completely, then confirm the issue is limited to the burner controlled by this switch.
- With power disconnected, inspect the switch wiring and terminals for loose, disconnected, or visibly overheated connections.
- Compare the affected control knob’s operation with another burner; loss of heat adjustment can indicate a switch or wiring issue, but the element and power supply should also be considered.
- If electrical testing is performed, disconnect power before accessing components and use the appliance’s model-specific wiring information; live-voltage testing should be performed only by a qualified technician.
Pro Tip
If the burner stays on after the knob is turned Off, disconnect range power at the circuit breaker and do not use that burner until the switch and wiring have been inspected.
