Continuie with taking one wire at a time off the old switch and connect to the corresponding connector on the new switch (all the connectors are coded the same, ex. L1, P, etc....) Once complete the switch and burner worked perfectly

repair it

Followed the procedure used in replacing the previous switches. The part came without a bushing needed to adjust the height of the knob sticking above the surface of controls. Fortunately, I could use the bushing from the previous part. I suggest a bushing should be included with this part.

4 I unscrewed the two screws ... Read more holding the bad cooktop switch control.
5. I looked under the cooktop and pulled the bad cooktop control switch down so I could remove the wires connected to it.
6. I got the new switch control and put the wires from the old control onto the new control, one-at-a-time, to the same labelled connection on the new control, which was a somewhat different arrangement.
7. I worked the new control up through the wires and put the knob shaft up through the hole in the cooktop.
8. Back on top, I installed the two screws I had removed from the old switch control to hold the new control to the stovetop.
9. I reinstalled the control knob onto the control.
10. I turned back on the circuit breaker for the stovetop and checked out the operation of the new switch control. It worked fine.
11. I turned the circuit breaker back off and reinstalled the panel cover under the switch controls, with the two screws I had removed earlier.
12. I turned back on the circuit breaker for the stovetop.
13 I put the items back onto the shelf directly under the stovetop.
