Customer Questions and Answers for 8 Inch Large Surface Element by Whirlpool

4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18030579
Manufacturer Part Number: WP660533

The 8-inch large Surface Element is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool induction ranges. It serves as an integral independent heating zone to boil, sauté or simmer large pots quickly.

Symptoms of a bad surface element include: 

  • Inability to power on or heat evenly across the surface
  • Slow inconsistent heating or hot/cold zones developing  
  • Parts of the coil visibly cracked or disconnected
  • Tripped circuit breakers upon heat-up that don't reset

Causes stem from normal thermal stress fatigue of coiled elements exceeding thousands of temperature cycles daily. Continuous high wattage energy may cause microscopic metal deterioration developing over a decade plus of use.

This genuine Whirlpool replacement part is compatible with Kenmore, Roper and Jenn-Air ranges.

For matching 6-inch element order WP660532.

Answer

Sue, The coil element isn't the problem, they either work or don't work. The temperature or heat setting is controlled through the infinite switch W10900107 / 4391989, Replace the switch and you should be fine. The part is in stock and available at this time. Thanks,
