Burner on 'high' only, no other settings other than 'off'.
SHUT OFF BREAKER! Remove exhaust grill and switch knob. Remove cooktop switch panel by removing two screws and sliding panel toward exhaust grill. Remove switch retainer nut with deep socket. Transfer wires one by one to new switch. Install new switch tightening retainer nut. Reinstall switch panel with two screws, push knob onto shaft. Turn on breaker.
Nearly 29 year old grill element was broken and not heating properly.
Unplugged and removed the old grill element by hand and installed the replacement element by plugging it into the socket. Tools were not required for this and it took less than five minutes. The new element is great and heats much better than the original did before it broke.
Burners were not regulating and they were just going on high
I am not really handy. When the repair man came and gave me a price of $220 to repair two infinite switches, I looked up the cost of the switch and saw that it was easy to do...and it was! I saved $140 for doing it myself (no help from my husband).
First I turned off the power, unscrewed two screws and took the knob panel off. Wrote down the colored wires and then pulled them off the infinite switch (some needed pliers) and then i just put the wires back on the new switch...done...it works!
Simply pull off old knobs and replace with the new parts. Didn't think I was going to find replacement parts. The equipment is actually over 25 yrs old. Thanks for partselect.
Downdraft blower motor noise, fluctuating fan speed and binding. Also replaced indicator light for burner knob.
1. Turned off electrical breaker at electrical service panel. 2. Tested stove top to verify correct breaker was off as well as cook top. 3. Removed front electrical connection panel @ cook top. 4. Disconnected wires to blower fan. (Before disconnection I color coded wires for correct reconnection) 5. Removed the bracket holding the armored cable (protecting motor wires) and removed wires (where connects to electrical connection box). 6. Removed 4 nuts @ blower motor housing and removed blower motor housing and fan. 7. Removed 3 screws that attached the blower fan to the blower motor housing noting or marking the position of the housing to the motor bracket in order to have the same placement position. 8. Pulled the 3 connecting wires from the armored cable protector to separate housing from motor. 9. Removed the fan assembly from the blower motor shaft by using an allen wrench carefully noting the distance from motor face to the fan. 10. Noting/marking the position of the motor mounting bracket connections unscrew the nut and screw that secures the bracket to the motor. 11. Reassemble in reverse order. Note: I taped the motor wires tightly together every 3 or so inches to be able to slide through the armored cable. I also had to rotate the mounting bracket a little to be able to perfectly match the motor housing to the motor bracket.
The new fan motor works great but it's a little bit louder.
I also sprayed them 3-times with a clear coat before installing. The clear coat I purchased at WalMart once I noticed it claimed to be safe for plastic. Avoid a clear lacquer based product.
****Make are you order Capacitor & Starter relay too (we ordered separtely so had to pay shipping twice)**** Super easy just open access panel on back near compressor and remove retention clip with fingers, remove & replace both capacitor & starter, put clip and access panel back on, plug in and allow 8 hours to cool! Works like new again! Hope it goes another 10 years
I watched a You Tube video,removed and dismantled the door, installed the new hinge. I forgot to remove the small pin which is similar to a rivet. When I tried to close the door it bent. Eventually, I remembered the shipping pin and pulled it out with any damage. Believe it or not, I had read about the shipping pin on customer comments on PartsSelect...Good luck, it is relatively easy!
Removed the access panel on back of unit located the Run Capacitor on the compressor and removed the bad one and put the new one on and pugged refrigerator back in and it started up and works fine now
