The range surface element provides heat to the cooking surface on top of the range. The element has a universal plug, is 8 inches in diameter, spans 5 coils in width and reaches 2600 watts. Before you begin your repair, ensure that the elements are turned off and have had time to cool. Once you have removed the element this is a good time to ensure the terminal is in good condition (they can wear over time) which may need to be replaced as well. This quick repair requires no tools except gloves for safety, and a small amount of time.

Hi Gloria,
Thank you for your question. If the 8-inch surface burner element heats immediately to high when you choose a lower setting, this issue is caused by the burner switch and you will need to replace it.

If you need help placing an order for it, customer service is open 7 days a week and anyone will be happy to assist you. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!

burner shorted out
I followed the directions by clipping wires to old burner socket, splicing the wires to new terminal block, screwing down new "block bracket," and plugging in new burner.
When we bought our home less than a year ago, we had three functional burners on our 40" wide 50's classic Kelvinator (not close to standard size these-a-days). After a few months of use, two more burners went out for good and we were stuck using the back left burner for all of our cooking. I opted for the premium burners and made sure to compare my terminals with the ones online to be sure they mounted the same. I removed the burners and terminals, clipped the wires going into the terminals, and removed the top of the stove. I followed the directions that came with the new terminals, pushed in the new burners and viola! All four burners now work. I gave the stove a general cleaning and now my 1954 Kelvinator looks and cooks like it is brand new. It was easily the best $109 I've spent on my home.
The right front burner element shorted also taking out the surface burner switch.
I determined that the failure was due to age and wear on the element. Therefore I thought it wise to replace all four burners as a preventative measure. First unplug from power! Replacing the burners was plug-and-play simple. Replacing the switch was easy: Remove the back panel, pull the control knob and remove the two screws securing the switch. Move the terminals to the new switch (one at a time) and mount it with the two screws and replace the back panel. NOTE: The foot bracket on the large burners were about 1/32" too stout and the burner element would not seat in the ring properly. I made a slight adjustment with my grinder and everything fits perfectly.
Switching out drip pan, surface element and glide door
i used a screwdriver to remove the old drip pans and broken surface element in addition to prepping the bracket for the door. It was extremely difficult for me to find these parts for the frigidaire oven but these fit perfectly! I was extremely pleased with how quick it was to replace or fix everything. I will definitely order again when the other surface elements go!
All you do it unplug the old one and plug in the new one.

The bake element and 2 burners wouldnt heat up
The bake element just unbolts from the rear of the oven then it pulls twoard you so you can access the connections. The burners just pull upward and disengage from their connectors. Topped off with the nice new trays and it looks and works like new!!! .......but lots cheaper
I unplugged the dead burner and plugged in the new burner. Very easy. No tools needed.

Original Element physically broke
There is an installation video , but it was so easy, and if you clean your drip pans from those inevitable spills you can do this. I have zero mechanical abilities and I did. The website makes it easy to find your part, and the original literature you got with your appliance will direct you where to find the Model # and serial # on your Frigidaire Range. Order your part on line, get it in the mail and insert the Element yourself.Very happy with my transaction.

MInor complaint
Everything was great with the ordering, payment, shipping, part quality. I only wished there was an invoice and packing list. I had to print the webpage and it seemed amateur. Other than that, everything was fine. But that said, I will look for another vendor for that reason.

Easy Install
One of the element prongs was slightly bent in when it arrived. It was easy to bend out a little and plug into the stove.
Packaging was just plastic with nothing to protect the product.
