Do-It-Yourself Story

I consider myself to be a pretty decent handyman so when I discovered the cause of my burners not working was due to a faulty switch, I decided to do the repair myself. The wiring harness that comes with the infinite switch kit is well worth the money. The cables are laid out exactly like they need to be and the lengths of the cables perfectly match where they terminate onto the burners. This was a time-consuming repair though. It took me about 4 hours start-to finish. This includes pulling the stove/range out of my cabinet and then reinstalling it. This also included me taking a few breaks here and there, but I never encountered a roadblock with the repair that was too difficult to overcome. The most difficult part of the repair for me was getting the old wiring harness off of some of the burners. I eventually used a pair of needle nose pliers to bend back the old connectors so they would slip off more easily. This repair could likely be done in less than the 4 hours it took me, but I did it on a Saturday when I had plenty of time and I moved along slowly in order to make sure I did everything correctly. I also took advantage of this time to clean the stove/range where dust and debris had accumulated. Overall this was a fairly straightforward repair for those willing to get their hands dirty and do a little work. If spending 4+ hours on a repair scares you, you might be better off calling a professional. Even still, a pro would easily take 2-3 hours or longer. This repair involved removing a lot of pieces just to get into the wiring harness and burner area.
