Part #W10900107
A surface element switch, also known as a burner/infinite switch, is a device used to control and regulate the heat output of the burners on a stovetop or cooktop. This switch is controlled with a knob on the user interface of the cooktop or stovetop and is adjustable by the user. This burner switch is compatible with various ranges and cooktops and is a genuine OEM part that is sold with all of the necessary hardware to secure it, such as the Philips-head and flat-head screws, brackets, bolts, washers, palnuts (also known as a push-on nut) and terminals. Over time, this switch can wear out or become faulty, leading to heating issues for your stovetop and cooktop, such as not heating, overheating, or staying at the same heat level. Depending on the orientation of your cooktop, you will need to install this switch with or without the bracket and palnut, so reference your user manual for that information when replacing this switch. You will need a screwdriver and set of pliers during the replacement and installation process, and simply need to follow the instruction manual included with this switch to correctly replace and rewire it.

This bottle of non-abrasive cooktop cleaner breaks down and gets rid of the hardest baked-on stains and residue without causing any harm to your appliance. The bottle is 10 oz and does not require a large amount of product to do the job. This cleaner is perfectly safe to use on any glass, ceramic, stainless steel, chrome, or porcelain cooktop surface. The cleaner is creamy in texture and provides a protective coat of silicone on smooth surfaces. To apply, use a gentle scrub, sponge, or rag and gently press in a circular motion until the stains are removed.

Burner would not heat

  • Edward from Malvern, AR
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins

First i shut off the power since this is an electric cook top/range. I then removed the knob and the two screws that hold the burner switch in place. I removed the wires one at a time and connected each to the new switch. I then reattached the screws to the switch. The most difficult part to me was breaking off the switch stem at the right level. I got that done and finally selected the appropriate adapter for the stem/knob fit.

Used cooktop creme, oven cleaner and Mr. Clean sponges. After many days of working on the surface, we were able to remove 99% of the sauce.
