Burner "on" indicator light went out
It appears that the indicator light is a "pop-up" replacement but you can't get it to fit through the mounting hole without it breaking up...Here's the easier way: 1st remove the power to the cooktop...2nd remove the 4 burners and the bowls.. 3rd remove the 2 front small sheet metal screws that are on the front flange where you removed the front bowls...4th gently lift the front end of the cooktop whereby you'll have access to the indicator light...5th remove the 2 wires from the light and with your fingers or long-nose pliers squeeze the mounting flanges on the sides of the light and pop it out from the top...Now you can replace the light---it's "keyed" on one side so it'll fit in only one way...Reattach the 2 wires on the bottom of the light....Reverse the disassembly procedure and restore the power....Let there be "light" when you turn on any of the burners !!!

Electric burner would not heat at all
I tested the element with a digital meter and found it was bad but I also followed your great tip to replace the receptacle which it really needed replaced also. Both parts now work and fit like new. Thanks

intermittant power to "burner" eye
due to the cooktop age, part was not an exact duplicate. I had to drill new holes in the stainless steel for mounting and ground wire. I used a lot of kitchen matches to heat the shrink tubes over the twist connectors. I should have gotten a heat gun or torch.

Burner not working
I took the burner out of the box and snapped it into the slots on the stove, turned on the stove and made dinner! By the way, I received it in 2 days, which was great. I will recommend your company to others and purchase all of my appliance replacement parts from Parts Select. The Norton Service Guarantee was awesome!! Thank you.
