Samsung Range Burner Won't Heat or Has No Temperature Control? Infinite Switch DG44-01006A – Fix Surface Element Failure Fast
A burner that won't heat, stays on full blast, or won't respond to the control knob is almost always a failed infinite switch — not a bad element. In most Samsung electric ranges, the DG44-01006A is the dual surface-element energy regulator that controls power delivery to the burner coils. When it fails, the element either gets no power at all or runs at full heat with no modulation — making the burner unusable and potentially dangerous. ⚡ One of the most common control failures in Samsung NE59J and NE58F series electric ranges. Part DG44-01006A is the genuine OEM infinite switch that restores precise, variable heat control to the affected burner immediately.
❓ Is This the Right Part?
This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:
- ✔ Range powers on and other burners work normally
- ✔ The affected burner element has been tested and is not burned out
- ✔ The control knob turns freely and is not physically broken
- ✔ Wiring harness to the switch is intact with no visible damage
- ✔ ONLY problem is one burner with no heat, full heat only, or no temperature variation
🔧 Common Symptoms
- Burner won't heat at all — element stays cold regardless of knob position
- Burner runs at full power only — no low or medium heat setting
- Burner cycles on and off erratically — no stable temperature
- Control knob turns but has no effect on heat output
- Burning smell or visible scorching around the switch terminals
- One burner dead while all others work normally
✔ If these symptoms match, this is the most likely failed component in the system.
✔ In most cases, replacing this infinite switch restores normal variable heat control immediately.

⚙️ Installation Notes
Skill Level: MODERATE — 20–40 minutes. Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing — never work on a live range. Remove the control panel or backsplash to access the switch bank. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting. Transfer wires one at a time from the old switch to the new switch to avoid miswiring. Secure the switch in the bracket, reassemble the panel, restore power, and test all heat settings on the affected burner.
💡 Pro Tip
Set a multimeter to resistance and test the burner element terminals — a working element reads 15–50 ohms depending on size. An open reading (OL) means the element is burned out, not the switch. Replacing the switch on a dead element will not restore heat. Confirm the element is good first, then order the switch — this saves a second service call.
