Front burner went out on my range

I ordered a new burner from appliance parts pro. They sent me the right part and received it the next day.

Right front burner did not heat and surface hot light stayed on all the time

Viewed on line video and ordered replacement burner, works perfectly.

Appliance: Maytag 30`` Electric Built-In Cooktop MEC7430BB00

I called Appliance Parts Pro's support line to verify I was ordering the rights parts (new Burner unit and switch) and they verified I did. The parts were packaged well and shipped quickly. I had no problems removing the cook top and replacing the parts. Thank you for your help and knowledge.
