Control Switch for Surface Element in Ranges, Stoves, and Cooktops
This replacement component addresses instances where the heating element does not activate. It is compatible with a range of Whirlpool brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Whirlpool also manufactures parts suitable for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances. Known as the Infinite Switch, this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) product is installed within the control panel of Whirlpool ranges, allowing users to manage cooking preferences and power settings effectively. The switch is integral for precise and straightforward operation, with dimensions of 1.85 inches in height and 6.55 inches in width.
Normal wear and tear, moisture intrusion, or physical impacts can lead to a switch malfunction.
Typical indicators of a defective switch include:
- Unresponsive or unpredictable controls
- Flickering or inactive indicator lights
- Incorrect power setting displays
This OEM component also fits certain KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and select Kenmore induction range models.
Please be aware that the switch's appearance may have been updated due to a manufacturer's redesign, but its functionality remains consistent.
