This Range Surface Burner Control Switch is a replacement part that operates your appliance's surface element, allowing you to turn it on, off, and regulate its heat intensity. This switch, also known as the infinite switch, is designed for an 8-inch burner with a current rating of 8.9–11.0 amps and sends voltage to the surface element coil. If your element remains at high heat or doesn't turn on at all, replacing this part may resolve these issues. When replacing this part, consider using Whirlpool's high-quality and easy-to-install range surface burner control switch. The replacement process will require basic hand tools, such as a multi-screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, and standard pliers. It also involves some disassembly of the range and requires novice repair experience. Before installing this part, remember to unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker to ensure safety.
