Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• The 6-inch element remains cold when its control is turned on.
• The element heats inconsistently or does not maintain the selected heat level.
• The element may remain energized or heat excessively if the switch contacts fail closed.

Check Before Replacing

• Confirm the issue follows the 6-inch element’s control switch rather than another burner control.
• With the range disconnected from power, inspect the switch terminals and connected wiring for loose connections, discoloration, melting, or heat damage.
• Check the surface element and wiring for continuity or damage only according to the appliance’s model-specific service documentation; do not perform live-voltage testing unless qualified to work on range circuits.
