This indicator light lens covers the pilot/indicator lamp opening on the appliance's control panel. It protects the assembly and diffuses the light so operating status is easy to see, restoring a clean, finished appearance when the original lens is damaged or missing.

• Covers and protects the indicator/pilot light opening in the panel
• Diffuses light for clearer visibility of the status indicator
• Helps keep dust, grease, and moisture out of the indicator assembly
• Common symptoms: lens cracked, missing, loose, or discolored; indicator light difficult to see

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Access the rear of the control panel/backguard to reach the lens area.
• Release the old lens from the panel opening and press the new lens in until fully seated; do not force brittle plastics.
• Reassemble panels, restore power, and verify the indicator is clearly visible.

• Lights to indicate a selected function is on (e.g., surface units or oven circuits—varies by model)
• Provides visual confirmation of appliance status during use
• Common symptoms: light will not turn on, stays on constantly, flickers, or the lens is damaged
• Restores proper visual feedback when controls are engaged

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; allow the appliance to cool
• Access the console/control panel and remove the rear cover as needed

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Provides a fixed-diameter shoulder for pivots, spacers, or mounting points in assemblies.
• Holds panels and moving components at the correct distance to prevent binding or friction.
• A missing or worn shoulder screw can cause misalignment, rattling, or loose parts during operation.
• Used where a smooth-bearing surface and controlled clearance are required between parts.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing.
• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.

This infinite surface element switch controls the heat output of a cooktop/range element. Replacing a worn switch restores smooth, reliable temperature adjustment for the designated Flex element, preventing issues like stuck-on-high heat, no heat, or erratic cycling.

• Regulates power to the surface element by cycling on and off at the selected setting
• Dedicated control for the unit's Flex element circuit
• Common failure symptoms: element won't heat, only heats on high, won't shut off, or heats inconsistently

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Pull the control knob straight off; access the switch from the control panel and note its orientation
• Label and transfer wires one at a time to matching terminals on the new switch
• Reassemble, restore power, and test all heat settings for proper operation

Symptoms of a bad large element switch include:

• The large element not heating or staying on continuously
• Inconsistent or incorrect heat levels
• The switch not responding or feeling loose
• The element turning off unexpectedly during use

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
