Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Surface element does not heat when turned on
• Surface element will not turn off
• Heat remains at high or cannot be adjusted
• Surface element heats intermittently or at an erratic level
• Burning odor or visible heat damage near the control-switch wiring

Check Before Replacing

• Confirm the range has electrical power and that the symptom is isolated to the surface unit controlled by this switch.
• With power disconnected and the appliance cool, inspect the switch terminals and nearby wiring for loose connectors, discoloration, melting, or burn damage.
• Check whether the control knob turns the switch normally and whether the problem follows the control position rather than the heating element.
• If the appliance has another surface element of the same size, compare operation using the appliance manufacturer’s service procedure; do not work on energized line-voltage wiring.
• If the element remains on after the control is turned off, disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the range and discontinue use until the switch and wiring are evaluated.
