Note: This is a partial list. This induction control and seal assembly is used in many GE-manufactured induction ranges and wall ovens built between 2016-2024. Verify your specific model number for compatibility before ordering. The integrated gasket seal is model-specific—using an incompatible assembly will cause improper sealing and moisture infiltration.

Professional: 120-180 minutes
DIY: 180-240 minutes
Difficulty Level: Difficult repair (requires extensive disconnection/reconnection of multiple connectors, gasket seal installation, risk of electrical damage if misconnected)

Required Tools:

• Phillips screwdriver
• Flathead screwdriver
• 1/4" or 5/16" nut driver
• Torx screwdriver set (T10, T15, T20)
• Needle-nose pliers
• Work gloves
• Flashlight
• Towel or blanket (to protect cooktop surface)
• Camera or smartphone (for reference photos)
• Anti-static wrist strap (recommended)
• Multimeter (for electrical testing)
• Gasket scraper or plastic putty knife (for old seal removal)

Step-by-Step Installation:

1. Disconnect Power: Turn off the circuit breaker that supplies power to the range. Verify power is off by attempting to turn on the cooktop (nothing should happen). Never work on the range with power connected. Wait 10 minutes for capacitors to discharge before proceeding.
2. Move Range (if freestanding): If you have a freestanding range, pull it away from the wall to provide access to the rear and underside. You'll need at least 3 feet of clearance.
3. Remove Cooktop Surface (if necessary): Depending on your model, you may need to remove the cooktop glass surface to access the control assembly:Remove screws securing the cooktop frame (typically 4-8 screws around the perimeter)Carefully lift the cooktop glass surface and set it aside on a padded surfaceHandle the glass carefully to avoid breakage
4. Access Control Assembly from Below: For most models, the induction control assembly is accessible from below the cooktop:If you have a slide-in or drop-in range, remove the lower access panel or drawerIf you have a freestanding range, tip the range back slightly or access from the rear
5. Locate Control Assembly: Look at the underside of the cooktop. You'll see the induction control assembly—a large electronic module with multiple wire harness connectors, cooling fins, and an integrated gasket seal around the perimeter.
6. Take Reference Photos (Critical): Before disconnecting anything, take 30-40 clear, close-up photos of ALL wire harness connections to the control assembly. Photograph each connector from multiple angles showing:Wire colors and connector positionsConnector orientation and locking mechanismsRelative position of each connector on the assemblyAny labels or markings on connectorsCooling fan connectionsPower input connectionsGasket seal condition and position Label each connector with masking tape and marker if needed (e.g., "Element 1," "Element 2," "Display," "Power," "Fan," etc.). This is absolutely critical for correct reinstallation.
7. Document Connector Positions: Create a detailed diagram or written list showing which connector connects to which port on the assembly. Include wire colors if visible. This documentation prevents misconnection during reinstallation.
8. Disconnect Cooling Fan (if present): If the control assembly has a cooling fan, disconnect the fan wire connector. Press the release tab and pull the connector straight off.
9. Disconnect Main Power Connector: Locate the main power input connector (typically the largest connector). Press the release tab and pull straight off.
10. Disconnect Wire Harnesses: The control assembly will have multiple wire harness connectors (typically 10-20 connectors depending on model). Carefully disconnect each connector one at a time:Press the release tab or locking mechanism on each connectorPull the connector straight off—do not pull on wires, only on the connector housingKeep track of which connector goes where using your photos and labelsPlace each connector in a small container or bag labeled with its function
11. Remove Mounting Hardware: The control assembly is secured with mounting screws or clips (typically 4-8 fasteners). Remove all mounting hardware. Keep these fasteners—you'll need them for reinstallation.
12. Remove Old Control Assembly: Once all connections and mounting hardware are removed, carefully lift the old control assembly away from the mounting location. Handle gently to avoid damaging other components or sharp edges.
13. Remove Old Gasket Seal: The old gasket seal is bonded to the control assembly or mounting surface. Using a gasket scraper or plastic putty knife, carefully remove the old seal:Gently scrape away the old gasket materialDo not scratch or damage the mounting surfaceRemove all old gasket residue and adhesiveClean the mounting surface thoroughly with a dry cloth
14. Inspect Old Control Assembly: Examine the old assembly for visible damage: burned components, melted plastic, corrosion, moisture damage, blown fuses, or discolored areas. This helps confirm the diagnosis and identify the cause of failure. Check for signs of water damage or failed gasket seal (moisture inside the control cavity).
15. Clean Mounting Area: Wipe down the mounting surface where the control assembly was located. Remove any dust, debris, corrosion, or old gasket material. A clean, dry mounting surface is essential for proper gasket seal installation and heat dissipation.
16. Compare Old and New Assemblies: Remove the new control and seal assembly from its packaging (use anti-static precautions—touch a grounded metal surface before handling). Compare the new assembly to the old assembly:Verify connector locations match exactlyCheck that mounting hole positions are identicalConfirm part numbers match or are compatibleEnsure the assembly is the correct replacement for your range modelVerify the gasket seal is intact and properly positioned on the new assemblyCheck that all kit components are included
17. Position New Control Assembly: Carefully position the new control and seal assembly into the mounting location. Align mounting holes with the mounting points on the cooktop frame or underside. Ensure the gasket seal is properly positioned around the perimeter of the assembly—it should sit flat against the mounting surface.
18. Install Mounting Hardware: Secure the control assembly with mounting screws or clips. Tighten screws firmly but do not overtighten—excessive force can crack the plastic housing, compress the gasket seal unevenly, or damage the assembly. Tighten in a cross-pattern to ensure even gasket compression.
19. Verify Gasket Seal Seating: Ensure the gasket seal is compressed evenly around the entire perimeter of the assembly. The seal should sit flat against the mounting surface with no gaps or wrinkles. Uneven compression allows moisture infiltration.
20. Reconnect Wire Harnesses (Critical Step): Using your reference photos and labels, reconnect all wire harness connectors to the new control assembly. This is the most critical step:Match each connector to its correct port on the assemblyEnsure connectors are oriented correctly (they typically only fit one way)Push each connector straight on until you hear or feel a clickVerify the locking tab engages on each connectorGently tug each connector to ensure it's fully seated and won't pull offDouble-check every connection against your photos before proceeding
21. Reconnect Main Power Connector: Plug the main power input connector back onto the control assembly. Ensure the connection is secure and fully seated.
22. Reconnect Cooling Fan (if present): Plug the cooling fan wire connector back onto the control assembly. Ensure the connection is secure.
23. Verify All Connections: Before closing panels, carefully verify that:All wire connectors are attached to the correct portsNo connectors are loose or partially connectedNo wires are pinched, damaged, or touching sharp edgesAll locking tabs are engagedThe assembly is securely mountedThe gasket seal is properly seated with no gapsNo wires are trapped between the assembly and mounting surface
24. Reinstall Cooktop Surface (if removed): If you removed the cooktop glass surface, carefully position it back onto the frame and secure with all mounting screws. Ensure the glass is properly seated and aligned.
25. Reinstall Access Panels: Replace any lower access panels or drawers you removed. Secure with all mounting screws.
26. Move Range Back (if moved): If you moved the range, push it back into position, leaving a small gap from the wall for ventilation.
27. Restore Power: Turn on the circuit breaker that supplies power to the range.
28. Initial Power-Up: When power is restored, the control assembly will initialize. You may hear beeps, see the display light up, or hear relays clicking. This is normal. Some models require 5-10 minutes for the control assembly to complete initialization.
29. Test Display Panel: Verify the control panel lights up and responds to button presses:Press buttons and verify the display changesCheck that all display segments work (numbers, letters, symbols)Verify the display shows the correct information
30. Test Induction Element Operation: Place an induction-compatible pot or pan on one of the heating elements. Set the element to MEDIUM power and press START:The element should activate within 5-10 secondsYou should hear the cooling fan startThe pot/pan should begin heatingThe display should show the element is active
31. Verify Heating Performance: Allow the element to heat for 2-3 minutes. The pot/pan should heat rapidly and evenly. Induction heating is very fast—water should boil in 3-5 minutes.
32. Test All Heating Elements: Test each induction heating element individually to verify all are working:Place a pot/pan on each elementSet each element to MEDIUM powerVerify each element heats properlyCheck that power levels adjust correctly (LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH)
33. Test Power Level Control: For each element, test all power levels:LOW: Element should heat gentlyMEDIUM: Element should heat moderatelyHIGH: Element should heat rapidlyBOOST (if equipped): Element should heat at maximum power The element should respond to power level changes within 5-10 seconds.
34. Verify Cooling Fan Operation: During heating, verify the cooling fan runs continuously. The fan should be audible but not excessively loud. The fan should continue running for several minutes after the elements are turned off to cool the control assembly.
35. Test Safety Features: Test the cooktop's safety features:Remove the pot/pan from an active element—the element should shut off within 30-60 seconds (no cookware detection)Place a non-induction pot/pan on an element—the element should display an error or not activate (incompatible cookware detection)Test the child lock feature (if equipped)
36. Check for Error Codes: Monitor the display panel for any error codes. If error codes appear, consult your range's service manual to diagnose. Some error codes indicate additional component failures or incorrect assembly installation.
37. Monitor for 30 Minutes: Allow the cooktop to heat and operate for 30 minutes. Monitor for:Stable heating performanceNormal cooling fan operationNo error codes or unusual displaysNo unusual noises (buzzing, clicking, or arcing)Normal operation of all features
38. Test Moisture Seal Integrity: After 30 minutes of operation, carefully feel around the gasket seal area (allow it to cool first). There should be no moisture or condensation entering the control cavity. The seal should prevent steam and spills from reaching the control board.
39. Full Cooking Test: Run a complete cooking test:Boil water on multiple elements simultaneouslyTest high-power and low-power settingsVerify temperature control is accurate and responsiveCook a test meal to verify proper heating and performanceDeliberately create some steam to test gasket seal integrity
40. Monitor for 24 Hours: Allow the range to operate for 24 hours and monitor for any issues: unusual noises, error codes, moisture infiltration, or operational problems.

The gasket seal is critical—improper installation causes immediate moisture infiltration and control board failure. The integrated gasket seal on the WS01F10909 is what differentiates it from older control assemblies without seals. This seal prevents steam, spills, and moisture from entering the control cavity and damaging the circuit board. If the gasket seal is not properly seated during installation, moisture will infiltrate immediately, causing electrical shorts, component failure, and control board damage within days or weeks. During installation, ensure the gasket seal sits flat against the mounting surface with no gaps, wrinkles, or uneven compression. Tighten mounting screws in a cross-pattern to ensure even seal compression. An improperly seated gasket seal can cause the new $800 assembly to fail within 1-2 weeks.

Diagnose gasket seal failure vs. control board failure—they have different solutions. If your old control assembly shows signs of water damage (moisture inside the cavity, corrosion, discolored components), the gasket seal failed and allowed moisture infiltration. Simply replacing the control assembly without addressing the seal failure will result in the same problem—moisture infiltration and control board damage. The new WS01F10909 includes an improved gasket seal design that prevents this problem. However, if moisture is still entering the control cavity after seal replacement, there may be a structural problem with the mounting surface or cooktop frame that's allowing water to bypass the seal. Inspect the mounting area for cracks, warping, or damage that could compromise seal integrity.

Take extensive photos and label everything—induction control assemblies have the highest reinstallation error rate. With 15-20 wire connectors that look similar, it's extremely easy to connect wires to the wrong ports, causing immediate assembly failure, component damage, or electrical shorts. Take 40-50 photos from multiple angles before disconnecting anything. Label every connector with tape and marker. Create a detailed written diagram showing connector positions and wire colors. Compare your photos constantly during reinstallation. One misconnected wire can destroy your new $800 assembly instantly. Professional technicians spend 30-45 minutes documenting connections before starting removal—this is not optional.

Check for power surges and electrical issues before installing the new assembly. If your control assembly failed due to a power surge or voltage spike, installing a new assembly without addressing the electrical issue will destroy the new assembly immediately. Test the outlet voltage (should be 240V AC ±10%). Check for evidence of power surges: burned components, melted plastic, corrosion, or discolored areas on the old assembly. If surge damage is evident, install a whole-house surge protector ($300-500) before installing the new assembly. Many manufacturers void warranties if surge damage is evident.

Verify the cooling fan is working before blaming the control assembly. The induction control assembly generates significant heat during operation and relies on a cooling fan to prevent overheating. If the cooling fan fails, the control assembly overheats and shuts down or fails completely. Before ordering a new control assembly, test the cooling fan for proper operation. If the fan doesn't run or runs slowly, replace the fan ($60-100) before replacing the assembly. Installing a new assembly with a failed cooling fan causes the new assembly to overheat and fail within weeks. A failed cooling fan combined with a failed gasket seal creates a perfect storm—moisture infiltrates while the assembly overheats.

Test individual heating elements before replacing the entire control assembly. If only one or two heating elements are not working while others function normally, the problem is likely a failed heating element ($200-350), not the control assembly. Test each heating element for proper resistance and continuity using a multimeter. If an element reads infinite ohms (OL) or zero ohms, it's failed and should be replaced. Replacing a $200-350 failed element is much cheaper than replacing an $800 control assembly. Only replace the control assembly if multiple elements fail or if power delivery to all elements is affected.

Induction control assemblies are non-returnable and non-refundable. Almost all appliance parts suppliers have strict no-return policies on control assemblies because they're easily damaged by incorrect installation, static electricity, or misdiagnosis. Once you install a control assembly and apply power, it cannot be returned even if it doesn't work. Verify your diagnosis thoroughly before ordering. Use a multimeter to test components. Consult the range service manual for error code meanings. Only order the control assembly after you've eliminated all other possibilities.

WS01F10909 includes an improved gasket seal compared to older versions (WS01F09915, WS01F10723). The WS01F10909 features an upgraded gasket seal design with better moisture resistance and improved durability. If you're replacing an older version without an integrated seal, the new assembly provides significantly better protection against moisture infiltration. However, verify your exact model number to ensure compatibility—the gasket seal design is model-specific and using an incompatible assembly will cause improper sealing.
