Parts for Frigidaire RE533DA0: 05 - Cooktop Parts

This is the large surface heating unit for an electric range or cooktop. Replacing a failing unit restores consistent stovetop heat so cookware warms predictably and meals cook evenly.

• Provides the heat source for the large burner position on an electric cooktop
• Converts electrical energy into controlled cooking heat
• Replace if the burner won't heat, heats intermittently or unevenly, or shows visible breaks, blistering, or burn spots
• Loose, pitted, or discolored terminals can also indicate the unit is failing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing and allow all components to cool completely
• If your model uses plug-in coils: lift slightly and pull the old unit straight out of the receptacle; align and push the new unit straight in until fully seated
• Inspect the burner receptacle for heat damage before reassembly
• Restore power and test operation on low and high settings

The Coil Burner Element is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire cooktops and ranges. The 6-inch coil burner element typically consists of a spiral-shaped metal resistance wire or rod that glows red-hot when electricity passes through it. This heat is then transferred to the cooktop surface, allowing it to reach the desired temperature for various cooking tasks, such as boiling, simmering, or sautéing.

Symptoms of a bad coil burner element:

• Burner not heating up properly or failing to reach the desired temperature
• Uneven heating or hot spots on the cooktop surface
• Visible damage or breaks in the coil wire
• Unusual smells or burning odors emanating from the burner area

Causes of a bad coil burner element can include mechanical failure, electrical malfunctions, or simply reaching the end of its lifespan due to repeated heating and cooling cycles.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore cooktops and ranges.
