Parts for Magic Chef 1500PRW: 02 - Control Panel Parts

Infinite switch that controls the top surface burner's heat range, restoring adjustable temperature settings and proper burner response. Replace a failed switch when a surface element won't heat or loses variable control. What it does:

• Regulates power to a surface element so you can select low-to-high heat; failure can cause no heat or only high heat.
• Provides stepped/infinite heat selection for smooth temperature changes; intermittent or erratic heating often indicates switch wear.
• Completes the circuit between the control knob and the burner element; an unresponsive or cycling burner can point to a bad switch.
• Physical symptoms may include a loose knob, inability to hold selected settings, or a surface element that won't turn on.

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing and work only on a cool cooktop.
• Access may require removing the element or lifting the cooktop.
• Match and secure wire terminals exactly; do not bend or force terminals. Confirm all connections are correct before restoring power.

Infinite switch (6") replaces the rotary control that regulates power to an electric cooktop or range surface element, restoring adjustable heat control so burners respond correctly when you change the knob. What it does:

• Regulates variable power to a surface heating element, allowing smooth, stepped heat adjustments.
• Replaces a failed or worn control that causes a burner to not heat or only heat on certain settings.
• Can correct symptoms like no heat, burner stuck on one setting, or inconsistent element behavior.
• Operates as the user-facing control behind the range knob for manual temperature selection.

• Disconnect electrical power at the breaker before servicing to prevent shock.
• Access is usually from the back or front control panel; remove knobs and any backguard per your service manual.
• The replacement switch matches the old part's shaft length and terminal layout before installation.
