Broken left front dual-element potentiometer (switch)
1. Cut Power 2. Remove knobs 3. Remove 4 large hex nut with 1-1/8" socket 4. Rotate panel on to stove top (place a towel first) . Watch for top seal (at the top of the panel).

I used a socket so the switch stem could protrude, and a pair of channel locks) 9. Re-assemble, making sure to position the top seal correctly. 10. Power-up & check out.
The apppliance store wanted over $150 to install it. But I could do it myself.
Some confusion on which part to order as the diagrams for the potentiometers show 3/1 configuration and indicated the front right potentiometer being different. My unit has 2/2 configuration (Front 2 large, Back 2 small) all dual-element. The diagram points to the front left as being different.
Even the local appliance store wasn't sure which to order and had to send a fax to find out (which came back talking about a 3/1 configuration).
I ordered the right front because I assumed it was for the higher wattage. I got the box and it was stamped "left front". Double check the boards and both looked identical
The whole process went smooth, part came in a couple of days after ordering.

My dual element control potentiometer control switch part# 316441804 got stuck in the off position where I was unable to turn the burner off. Is this part defective part? Honestly I don’t I know what would happen if I was not home. Why is that part so expensive?
For model number PLES389ECF
Hi Devon, Thank you for the question. Yes, it sounds like the switch is defective and will need to be replaced. The prices are based on the manufacture pricing and then discounted down from there. Hope this helps!
