Customer Questions and Answers for Coil Burner Element by Frigidaire

The Coil Burner Element is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire cooktops and ranges. The 6-inch coil burner element typically consists of a spiral-shaped metal resistance wire or rod that glows red-hot when electricity passes through it. This heat is then transferred to the cooktop surface, allowing it to reach the desired temperature for various cooking tasks, such as boiling, simmering, or sautéing.

Symptoms of a bad coil burner element:

• Burner not heating up properly or failing to reach the desired temperature
• Uneven heating or hot spots on the cooktop surface
• Visible damage or breaks in the coil wire
• Unusual smells or burning odors emanating from the burner area

Causes of a bad coil burner element can include mechanical failure, electrical malfunctions, or simply reaching the end of its lifespan due to repeated heating and cooling cycles.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore cooktops and ranges.
