Ralph G. for Model Number RF262LXSB0 The front burner on my Whirlpool range stays on high heat regardless of where I place the rotary control knob. Could this be a problem with the surface unit switch or is there a thermal sensor involved?
Answer Hi Ralph. Surface Unit Switch - Large surface unit switch. For small surface unit switch order WP3149404 Part Number: WP3149400.

Let us know what exact burner is in question. There are 2 - different ones. There are sensors on the burners but normally the switches will burn contacts visually seen from the sides.
