This infinite switch controls power to a cooktop surface element, allowing precise low-to-high heat settings. Replace it if a burner won't heat, stays on high, or won't shut off when the knob is turned to OFF. What it does:

• Regulates voltage to the surface element by cycling power to match the knob setting
• Restores proper temperature control for the designated burner position
• Can address symptoms such as no heat, only high heat, erratic heating, or a burner that won't shut off
• Needed if the control shaft is stripped, broken, or difficult to turn

• One infinite switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before service
• Remove the knob and access the control panel to reach the switch
• Transfer wires to the new switch one at a time, matching terminal markings
• Test burner operation at low and high settings before reassembly

• Many ranges use different switches for small vs. large elements or specific burner locations. Order by your full model number and burner position. A failed surface element or receptacle can mimic switch issues—test those if symptoms persist.

The Stove Top Drip Pan is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas and electric ranges. It is located underneath the stove burners and grates to catch and contain grease drippings and spills. Over time, grease and cooking residue buildup can cause drip pans to crack, warp or corrode.

Symptoms of a bad stove top drip pan include:

• Grease spillovers outside of the drip pan area
• Flames or heating elements obstructed by built-up debris
• Warping or cracking of the pan surface
• Difficulty removing or cleaning the drip pan

Causes can be normal wear from heat and long-term grease exposure. Accidental damage during cleaning is also possible. 

 This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana and some Kenmore models. 

The Drip Pan (LG) is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges and ovens. It is a durable metal tray designed to catch any spills, drips, or boil-overs that may occur during the cooking process, helping to keep the oven cavity clean and preventing potential messes or smoke from burnt-on spills.

Symptoms of needing to replace the drip pan include:

• Warping or discoloration from excessive heat exposure
• Cracks or breaks in the pan material
• Difficulty sliding the pan in and out of its designated position

Causes of a drip pan failure can include general wear and tear from repeated use and high temperatures, physical damage from impact or abrasion, or corrosion or deterioration due to exposure to acidic food spills or cleaning agents.

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

This black surface element control knob fits the burner's infinite switch, letting you turn the element on/off and set heat levels. Replace cracked, stripped, or missing knobs to restore safe, reliable control of your cooktop settings.

• Attaches to the infinite switch shaft to control a surface heating element
• Provides on/off and variable heat selection
• Replace if the knob is cracked, stripped, missing, or no longer engages the shaft
• Helpful when the control is hard to turn, wobbly, or can't be reliably set to Off

• Turn the appliance off and disconnect power before servicing
• Ensure the control is in the Off position
• Pull the old knob straight off the switch shaft; align the new knob with the shaft and press until fully seated
• Do not force; apply even pressure and verify proper alignment

This switch bracket mounting seal replaces a worn or damaged seal that cushions and protects the door or control switch mounting area. It helps keep the switch assembly seated and reduces debris and moisture intrusion for reliable operation. What it does:

• Seals the switch bracket mounting area to protect the switch from lint, dust and moisture
• Helps keep the switch properly positioned for accurate door or control sensing
• Can prevent intermittent or failed switch contacts caused by contamination or misalignment
• Useful when replacing a brittle, torn or missing mounting seal during switch or door repairs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the door or panel per service instructions to access the switch bracket area
• Fit the seal into the bracket groove or around the switch housing, ensuring full seating without stretching
• Inspect adjacent clips or screws and reuse or replace as needed; test the switch function after reassembly

This small spring clip secures a heating element to its mounting bracket in a range or wall oven, keeping the element properly positioned for safe, consistent heating. Replaces a worn or missing retainer to stop the element from shifting or sagging. What it does:

• Retains the heating element against its mounting point or bracket
• Helps prevent element sagging, shifting, or rattling during use
• Maintains proper alignment and spacing for reliable performance

• 1 metal spring clip

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the appliance to cool completely
• Support the element while removing/installing the clip to avoid stressing terminals
