Kenmore / Sears Cooktop Switch

This push-button door switch detects when the appliance door is closed and allows normal operation. It replaces a worn or failed door interlock to restore reliable start/stop response and user safety. What it does

• Acts as the door-closed sensor that permits the appliance to start when the door is latched.
• Interrupts power to drive/heating circuits when the door opens, preventing operation with an open door.
• Stops intermittent starting or running caused by a faulty or stuck switch.
• Helps resolve symptoms like the appliance not starting, stopping mid-cycle, or not responding to door closure.

• One door switch (push-button type)

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before accessing electrical components.
• Remove door trim or control panel as needed to access and replace the switch; keep track of screws and clips.
• Verify switch operation with a continuity meter before and after installation.

This electrical switch restores reliable on/off control to the designated circuit in your appliance. Replacing a worn or stuck switch helps ensure lights, fans, or motors operate only when they should. What it does

• Opens and closes an electrical circuit when actuated
• Helps correct issues like a light that won't turn on/off or a component that won't run or won't stop running
• Resolves intermittent operation caused by worn contacts or a loose/broken actuator
• Addresses signs such as melted/discolored terminals or an unusually loose/tight switch feel

• 1 switch

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing (unplug or switch off the circuit breaker)
• Access the switch location per your model's service information
• Photograph wire positions and transfer connectors one at a time to the new switch; do not force terminals
• Secure the switch, reassemble, restore power, and test operation

The Surface Element Control Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges. It is responsible for regulating the heat output of the surface elements on your range, allowing you to adjust the temperature for different cooking needs.

A bad surface element control switch can be caused by wear and tear, electrical issues, or component failure. When the control switch becomes faulty, it can result in issues such as the surface elements not heating up, inability to adjust the temperature, or inconsistent heat output.

Symptoms of a bad surface element control switch include:

• Surface elements not heating up
• Inability to adjust the temperature of the elements
• Surface elements heating unevenly or inconsistently

Replace your faulty surface element control switch with this genuine OEM Frigidaire part to restore your range's surface elements. This Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.
 

This wiring harness routes power and signals between the appliance's control and various electrical components, restoring reliable electrical connections and helping the appliance operate as designed. Use it when wiring is damaged, corroded, or intermittent. What it does:

• Delivers power and signal paths between control boards, switches, and motors
• Restores lost or intermittent electrical connections that can cause failure to start or run
• Replaces burned, frayed, or broken wires and damaged connector terminals
• Helps eliminate arcing, shorts, and communication errors caused by faulty wiring

• Always disconnect all power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting repairs
• Match connectors and wire routing to the original harness; avoid stretching or pinching wires
• Inspect mating connectors and terminals for damage before installation; replace any damaged parts
• If connectors are tight or corroded, clean or replace them rather than forcing connections

This surface burner valve switch mounts on the gas valve stem and signals the spark module when you turn the knob. Replacing a faulty switch restores consistent clicking and reliable ignition on the affected cooktop burner. What it does:

• Mounts to the surface burner gas valve and closes the ignition circuit when the knob is turned to Lite
• Sends power to the spark module to create the clicking needed to ignite the flame
• Symptoms may include: burner won't spark, intermittent ignition, continuous clicking with knobs off, or a burner lights only when another knob is turned

• One valve switch

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off gas supply; allow the cooktop/range to cool
• Remove the knob and front panel or manifold cover to access the valve area
• Note wire positions, transfer the wires to the new switch, and secure it on the valve stem in the same orientation
• Reassemble, restore power and gas, then test burner ignition
