Replacement 1/4-inch hex flange nut that secures panels, brackets and other appliance hardware. Restores a firm connection to reduce rattling and keep assemblies aligned for reliable operation. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, hinges and small assemblies to maintain proper alignment.
• Prevents loose or vibrating panels that can cause noise or premature wear.
• Replaces missing, stripped or damaged nuts to restore secure mounting.
• Works where a flange provides extra bearing surface to resist loosening.

• Always unplug the appliance or disconnect power before beginning service.
• Use the correct socket or wrench size to avoid rounding the nut; hand-start threads to prevent cross-threading.
• Do not overtighten; tighten until components are seated and secure.
• Replace any damaged mating fasteners or hardware to ensure a reliable repair.

The Infinite Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool cooktops and ranges, designed to control the temperature of the burners. This critical component allows for the precise adjustment of heat levels, providing the flexibility needed for various cooking tasks, from simmering sauces to boiling water. 

Causes of these symptoms can vary from electrical issues within the switch, such as faulty contacts or internal components, to physical damage from wear and tear or overheating. It's essential to address these issues promptly to maintain the safety and functionality of your cooktop or range.

Symptoms of a bad Infinite Switch include:

• Burners not heating to the set temperature
• Inability to adjust the heat level of the burner, resulting in it being stuck on high, low, or off
• The burner not turning on at all

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

• Access the console/backguard area; note wire positions and move them to the new light one at a time
• Seat and secure the light, restore power, and test operation before reassembly

Red indicator lens that snaps over a control-panel indicator light to restore visibility and color. Replaces cracked, faded, or missing indicator covers so status lights are easier to see during use. What it does:

• Covers and protects the control-panel indicator light from dirt and damage.
• Restores the red color and improves visibility when the original lens is faded or discolored.
• Keeps light directed through the panel for a clear status signal.
• Common symptoms: cracked or missing lens, washed-out/red light appears dim or uneven.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting replacement to avoid shock or accidental activation.
• Typically snaps into the control-panel opening; some models may use small retainers or screws—retain any fasteners from the original part.
• Replace only with the correct lens to ensure proper fit and color.
• If the indicator still appears dim after replacing the lens, inspect the bulb/LED and wiring (replace only after verifying power is off).
