This genuine replacement switch kit restores reliable electrical switching for your appliance's control or component circuit. Replacing a worn or failed switch helps bring back consistent on/off or mode selection response and prevents intermittent operation.

• Opens and closes the electrical circuit to control a function or component
• Helps resolve no response when actuating the switch or intermittent operation
• Useful when the switch sticks, feels loose, or shows signs of arcing or heat damage
• Can address issues like inability to turn a function on/off or erratic behavior

The Surface Element Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire electric cooktops and ranges. It is an electronic component that controls the power supply to individual cooking elements on the surface.

Causes can be normal wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, food spills or other contaminants on the cooktop. Physical damage from impacts could also cause switch failure.

Symptoms of a bad surface element switch include:

• Elements failing to heat up or staying hot even when controls are set to off
• Inconsistent or intermittent power to surface elements
• Loose, cracked, or non-responsive switches

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

This switch bushing fits the control shaft to stabilize and guide rotary switches, helping restore proper knob alignment and smooth operation. It prevents wobble and uneven contact that can cause intermittent control behavior. What it does:

• Helps maintain reliable electrical contact by keeping the switch properly seated
• Commonly replaced when knobs are loose, the switch wobbles, or control engagement is uneven

• One switch bushing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Requires removing the control panel or knob to access the switch shaft; small hand tools typically needed
• Inspect the switch and knob for wear while replacing the bushing; replace worn components as needed
