Parts for Whirlpool WFE500M4HS0: Cooktop And Control Parts

This smooth glass cooktop is the flat replacement surface for compatible Whirlpool electric cooktops. It restores a safe, even cooking area and keeps surface elements properly aligned for normal use. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, chipped, or severely scratched cooktop glass to restore a smooth cooking surface
• Provides a stable mounting surface so heating elements sit and connect correctly
• Helps prevent heat loss and food spillage from contacting internal components
• Reduces risk of cuts from broken glass and improves overall cooktop appearance

• Disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker before starting any work
• Handle tempered glass carefully; use gloves and eye protection to avoid injury
• Verify correct part orientation and gasket/seal placement during installation

This infinite switch controls the heat output of a cooktop's surface burner, letting the element move smoothly between low and high settings for consistent cooking. It replaces a worn or failed burner control to restore variable heat control. What it does:

• Regulates electrical current to a surface burner so heat can be adjusted across multiple settings
• Helps restore steady heating when a burner won't reach or hold the correct temperature
• Commonly replaces a switch that is unresponsive, has no power to the element, or causes erratic heat changes
• Works with mechanical knob controls to provide continuous adjustment rather than fixed steps

• One infinite switch

• Disconnect power to the range at the breaker before inspecting or replacing the switch
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; connections match the original switch
• Surface and surrounding parts may be hot — allow the cooktop to cool fully before starting
