Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• The surface element remains cold when its control is turned on.
• The element heats inconsistently or produces uneven cooking results.
• The element does not respond to the surface-element control.
• Visible burning, cracking, or physical damage may be present.
• An element that stays on continuously may indicate a control or switch fault rather than the element itself.

Check Before Replacing

• With the appliance cool, visually inspect the element and its wiring for obvious damage; do not touch energized components.
• Compare the affected cooking zone with another zone using the same control setting; a single cold zone narrows the issue to that zone or its associated circuit, but does not by itself prove the element has failed.
• If qualified to perform electrical testing, disconnect power before access and check the element for continuity according to the appliance service documentation; an open element supports replacement, but wiring, the switch, and control components can cause similar symptoms.
• If all surface elements are inoperative, check for a tripped or partially tripped appliance circuit breaker before condemning this individual element.

Pro Tip

Part Details

Key Features

• Whirlpool genuine OEM radiant surface element kit.
• 1800-watt rating.
• Designed for an 8-inch radiant surface cooking zone.
• Used in smooth-top electric ranges and cooktops.
• Includes the associated limit-switch assembly.
• The element is not repairable if its heating circuit is open.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power at the appliance or circuit breaker and allow the cooktop to cool completely before service.
• Access generally requires lifting or removing the smooth cooktop surface and disconnecting the element wiring; the exact procedure varies by appliance model.
• Document wire locations before removal and follow the part-specific or appliance-specific instructions when reconnecting them.
• Do not rely on wire position alone if the replacement connector or switch arrangement differs; incorrect wiring can affect the hot-surface indicator and prevent proper heating.
• After installation, restore power and test the affected zone cautiously while observing for abnormal heating, arcing, or indicator behavior.
