This dual infinite switch controls heat settings for a range's surface element, letting you adjust cooking temperatures smoothly and reliably. It replaces a worn or failing infinite control to restore variable burner power. What it does:

• Selects variable power levels for a dual (dual-ring) surface heating element
• Allows smooth adjustment from low to high heat for cooking tasks
• Stops responding or prevents element from heating when the switch fails
• Can cause uneven or no heat and intermittent element operation if defective

• One dual infinite switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker before starting work to avoid shock
• Remove the cooktop or back panel and control knob to access the switch
• Verify correct switch orientation and wiring match the old part before fastening

This truss-head machine screw secures a switch to its mounting bracket or panel. Replacing a worn or missing screw restores a solid, aligned switch fit for reliable operation.

• Fastens the switch body to a bracket or chassis panel
• Helps keep the switch aligned for consistent actuation
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing mounting hardware

• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Verify thread size and length match the original hardware
• If multiple screws secure the switch, replace them in a consistent pattern to maintain alignment

This is a 10-24 x 1/2 inch machine screw used to secure temperature probes, thermistor brackets, shields and drawer/box components. It provides a simple, reliable fastener for small appliance assemblies. What it does:

• Secures probe or thermistor brackets to the appliance chassis or housing
• Holds shielding or small drawer/box parts in place to prevent movement or rattling
• Helps maintain correct sensor positioning so temperature readings stay stable
• Common replacement when a stripped, corroded, or missing screw causes loose parts or vibration

• One 10-24 x 1/2 in. screw

• Use the matching 10-24 threaded hole; avoid over-tightening to prevent stripping or cracking nearby plastic
