KECS100SOB3 KitchenAid Cooktop - Instructions

After putting up with ill fitting generic versions of our drip bowls, we smartend up and ordered correct parts. They went in super easy, perfect fit and the heating element is now perfectly level. Who knew that following the manufactors recommendations to buy correct parts would make such a difference? Well we know now! Thank you. The parts were shipped almost immediately and delivered as promised.

placed element in drip pan and plugged in. .Fit perfectly.I am very pleased with the product and service.

just pulled and removed the old burner then pushed the two new power connections into same place - no tools - works perfectly

I took the old drip pans out and replace them with the new ones. Now my stove looks brand new. These were a perfect fit.

I noticed that one of the burner blocks was completely burned and the others were corroded. I ordered blocks for all four burners. Installation was easy except for one block. The screw holding the bracket to the range top was completely corroded in place. I used a correct size easy-out, which is a left hand tap and drill, to remove the screw. That took about five minutes, including tracking the easy-out down in one of my many toolboxes. The entire replacement of four blocks took about one and a half hours. Stove top cooks like new on all burners! The part kit had all the right parts and they fit like a glove!

After turning off circuit breaker to the stove, I removed all surface units , removed the 4 screws holding the top and lifted up. The plug in was burned out (the wire was burned). Look at the old plug-in so as to be able to match the new one and insert the pre- crimped end of wires into the block and the block into the metal holder that matches your old one. (The kit comes with 2 different metal holders)After this, cut out the old wires and wire nut the new wires with the stove wires. Put shrink wrap protector on the wire nuts and heat to shrink it tight.attach the block to the stove top and wa la its done. Very easy.

burner was shorting out replaced part works great

took it out of the packing material, wiped it off and plugged it into the cooktop. Works like a champ, needed no tools. My order was processed and sent out promptly, and arrived quickly. Thank you very much.

I took the old bowls out and dropped the new bowls in. No problem.

I removed the burner element, then the drip pan. I took off the old block. Then I had to strip the old wires. Then I put on the heat sleeve, then attached the new wires to the old wires with nuts. Put heat sleeve over this and heated with lighter. Then put everything back together.

I knew a service call would be very expensive and I decided to look and see how hard it would be for us to try to fix it. It looked pretty easy so I went online to look for the part. Since the stove has some age on it I expected it to be hard to find. However, Parts Select had the one I needed. It arrived in a timely manner and we were able to put the part in ourselves. Thank you, PartSelect!

Ordered wrong part at first caused me to blow out two elements. With the help of PartSelect I was able to get the right surface block terminal and replaced both of them, then found out I had a bad switch, they got the switch within 2 days I had my stove working good again. Thanks to PartSelect. Also watched the video which was very helpful ML
