• 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
