The Infinite Switch Knob is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool cooktops. Measuring an inch and a half in diameter this knob has an orange indicator line and corresponding orange lettering marking the "off" position. White numbering indicates various temperature levels, for clear and precise adjustments to the surface burner settings.
Over time, wear and tear from frequent use, excessive force when turning, or accidental damage can cause the knob to crack, loosen, or lose its grip. These issues may result in poor control over the surface burner's heat settings, leading to inefficient cooking.
Symptoms of a faulty Infinite Switch Knob include:
- Difficulty adjusting the temperature settings
- Knob slipping, turning loosely, or misaligned
- Cracks, broken, or missing components
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
