1200W Element Control

The Infinite Control Switch is an OEM part for GE ranges. It controls and regulates the temperature of the cooktop surface elements.

Causes of a faulty Infinite Control Switch can vary. They may stem from electrical malfunctions or short circuits, mechanical wear due to repeated use, or exposure to moisture or debris.

Symptoms of a bad Infinite Control Switch include:

• Inability to adjust or control the cooktop temperature
• Erratic temperature fluctuations or inconsistent heating
• Complete failure to heat the cooking surface

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This selector switch lets you choose the oven's operating mode from the front control knob. Replacing a worn switch restores reliable mode selection so power is routed correctly to the cooking function you select. What it does

• Connects the control knob to the proper circuit to engage the selected oven function
• Restores consistent operation when the oven won't start or won't stay in certain modes
• Addresses issues like only one function working or intermittent mode changes
• Helps when the knob turns but doesn't change functions or the selector shaft feels loose

• 1 selector switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker or fuse panel before servicing; allow the appliance to cool
• Pull off the control knob and remove the control panel/backguard to access the switch
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time, matching positions (take a photo or label leads)
• Secure the switch, reassemble, reinstall the knob, and test each oven function

• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded hardware
• Helps reduce vibration/rattling and restores proper fit
• Maintains alignment and a secure assembly after service

• Disconnect power; shut off gas if applicable before servicing
• Support components while removing/installing fasteners
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Replace all required screws in a location for even clamping and proper fit

This replacement screw secures appliance components and helps keep panels, brackets, and controls firmly attached for reliable operation. It's a simple, direct fix when a mounting screw is missing, loose, or stripped. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, brackets or electrical components to reduce movement and rattling.
• Restores proper alignment of parts that shift when a screw is missing or worn.
• Helps maintain electrical and mechanical connections by keeping components seated.
• Common symptom: loose or vibrating panels, trim gaps, or visibly missing hardware.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal components.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Thread gently and avoid overtightening to prevent stripping the mating threads or cracking surrounding parts.
• Keep any removed hardware organized to ensure placement of all required fasteners during reassembly.
