• Secures interior or exterior trim, panels and access covers
• Holds wiring harnesses or insulation in place where a low-profile fastener is required
• Replaces missing or damaged rivets that cause loose panels or vibration noise
• Simple push-in design creates a firm hold without screws or adhesives

• Disconnect power to the appliance before working on panels or wiring
• Push the rivet stem into the hole until it snaps; remove by prying out the center pin or using pliers
• Use the same style and size rivet as the original to ensure proper fit and retention
• Protect surrounding surfaces from tools and work deliberately to avoid damage

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.

This flat-head 10-32 zinc screw secures panels and components on compatible appliances, providing a corrosion-resistant fastener for reliable mechanical fastening. Use when replacing stripped or missing panel screws to restore proper fit. What it does:

• Zinc plating helps resist rust and wear in typical household environments
• Replaces missing, damaged, or stripped flat-head screws that prevent panels from seating correctly
• Fits applications that require a countersunk/flush head for a clean finish

• Use the correct 10-32 driver bit and moderate torque to avoid stripping the head or threads
• Ensure the screw is the correct length and head style for your application before tightening
• Disconnect power to the appliance and follow OEM safety instructions before servicing
