Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Surface element will not heat
• Only the inner or smaller zone of the dual element heats
• Burner operates only on high or does not regulate temperature
• Burner control knob does not properly switch or regulate the dual element

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect electrical power to the range at the plug or circuit breaker before inspecting the switch.
• Verify that the surface-element wiring and terminals have no visible loose, burned, or damaged connections.
• Compare the existing switch terminal labels and wire positions with the replacement switch; do not rely only on terminal location because the updated design differs.
• If electrical testing is appropriate, test the switch and related element circuit only with power removed and according to the appliance wiring diagram or service documentation.
• Check the dual element itself and its wiring before condemning the switch, since either component can cause partial or no heating.
