Kenmore / Sears Range Switch

The infinite switch regulates power to your range or cooktop's surface element, letting you set heat from low to high. Replace a failed switch to restore dependable burner control and consistent cooking performance.

• Regulates on/off power cycling to the surface element based on the knob setting
• Helps resolve no-heat, stuck-on-high, won't-turn-off, or erratic/uneven heat issues
• Often controls the surface "on" indicator light circuit; failure may affect the light
• Installs behind the control knob and connects to the existing wire harness

• Disconnect power at the breaker; allow the appliance to cool completely
• Remove the knob and access panel to reach the switch
• Photograph wiring and transfer wires to the same labeled terminals (commonly L1, L2, H1, H2, P)
• Reassemble, restore power, and test multiple heat settings; check the element and wiring

This electrical microswitch opens or closes a circuit when its actuator is engaged, allowing the control to sense position or enable a function. Replacing a worn switch restores reliable signaling and prevents intermittent faults in select ranges and wall ovens. What it does

• Changes state (open/closed) when actuated to complete or break a circuit
• Sends feedback to the control or enables power to a related component
• Helps ensure operations start/stop only when the mechanism is in the correct position
• Failure signs can include intermittent operation, cycles that won't start or finish, or related error codes/alarms

• 1 switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Note/photograph wire positions and transfer one at a time to the new switch
• Match actuator orientation to the original and secure the switch firmly
• Verify function with a multimeter (continuity changes when actuated) before reassembly and testing

This surface element switch is the control behind your cooktop knob. It regulates power to the surface heating element so you can set and maintain the desired heat for reliable, consistent cooking performance.

• Regulates and cycles power to the surface heating element based on the knob setting
• Restores accurate low-to-high temperature control at the burner
• Typical failure symptoms: burner won't heat, only heats on high, or won't turn off
• Helps correct intermittent or uneven surface element heating

• Disconnect power at the circuit breaker before servicing
• Remove the knob and access the switch from the control panel or rear cover as applicable
• Photograph or label wire positions; transfer wires to the new switch one at a time
• Secure the switch, reassemble, restore power, and test all heat settings

This door-activated switch detects when the oven door opens or closes and signals the appliance to control the interior light. Replacing a worn or failed switch restores dependable light operation and accurate door-status feedback.

• Senses oven door position and opens/closes the light circuit
• Controls the oven's interior light based on door position
• Provides door-status input to the control for normal operation
• Typical symptoms: light stays on, won't turn on, or flickers with door movement; door-ajar messages may appear

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the unit before servicing
• Access the switch from behind the front frame or control area, depending on model
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time to maintain correct positions; secure with existing hardware
• Restore power and verify light operation with door open/closed before reassembly

Note: Part has been revised and may no longer include the wires. The switch is the same. Use your existing wires.

This rocker switch is the on/off control used in the appliance's control panel. It opens and closes the circuit to a selected feature, restoring dependable operation when the original switch becomes worn, stuck, or fails.

• Controls a single on/off circuit from the control panel
• Restores proper switching for the associated feature
• Common symptoms: feature won't turn on or off, light or function flickers or stays on, switch feels loose or sticks
• Replaces a cracked, burned, or unresponsive rocker

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the switch from the control panel or mounting area; note/photograph wire positions
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time and seat the switch securely in the panel opening
• Restore power and test operation before reassembly

Color: Black. Instruction sheet included.

This top burner valve switch mounts to a surface burner gas valve and closes the ignition circuit when you turn the knob to Lite. Replacing a worn switch restores dependable sparking and stops intermittent or nonstop clicking at the burners.

• Mounts on the surface burner valve and closes the ignition circuit at the Lite position
• Signals the spark module to fire the igniters so the burner lights
• Helps ensure quick, consistent burner ignition
• Common symptoms: no spark at a burner, intermittent ignition, or continuous clicking with knobs in Off

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Pull off the burner knob and remove the control/manifold panel to access the valve switch
• Transfer wires one at a time and align the switch correctly on the valve stem; avoid overtightening
• Reassemble, restore power, test for spark with gas off, then relight and check for leaks

This is the variable control switch for an electric range's cooktop burner. It regulates power to the surface element so you can select steady, repeatable heat levels and restore reliable on/off control. What it does:

• Regulates voltage to a surface element based on knob position (low through high)
• Typical failure symptoms: burner won't heat, only heats on high, won't shut off, or heats inconsistently
• Can address issues when the control shaft is damaged or the switch shows signs of overheating at the terminals

• 1 switch

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the control panel/console to reach the switch
• Note wire locations and transfer them to the new switch one at a time
• Secure the switch in the panel, reinstall knob, and test burner operation before reassembly

Color: White

This surface burner infinite switch sits behind the knob and regulates power to the cooktop/range element. Replacing a failed switch restores accurate heat settings so the burner can turn on, modulate properly, and shut off as expected.

• Regulates on/off cycling of the surface element to achieve the selected heat level
• Sends power to the burner based on knob position
• Common failure symptoms: burner won't heat, only runs on high, won't shut off, or heats erratically
• Knob turns but the burner does not respond

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; surface elements operate at high voltage
• Pull off the knob and remove the control panel/backguard as needed to access the switch
• Transfer wires one at a time from the old switch to the matching terminals on the new switch
• Align the shaft to fit your knob, reassemble the panel, restore power, and test operation

This limit switch is a safety control for compatible cooking appliances. It opens or closes an electrical circuit when a preset limit is reached—commonly temperature or travel—helping protect components and ensure proper operation of heating and latch systems.

• Monitors a specific limit at its mounting point (temperature or mechanism travel, depending on model)
• Opens/closes the circuit to interrupt or allow power to related components
• A failed switch can prevent heating, stop self-clean from starting, or keep the door from locking/unlocking
• Helps protect wiring and controls from damage during abnormal conditions

• Disconnect power to the appliance and allow all components to cool before servicing
• Access location varies by model; take photos and label wires before removal
• Transfer wires one at a time to the new switch; secure with existing hardware
• If the old switch tripped due to overheating or binding, inspect fans, vents, and latch/linkages to correct the root cause

This replacement switch restores reliable on/off control for a specific function in your appliance, helping the selected feature respond consistently. A worn or failed switch can cause the feature to be unresponsive, intermittent, or stuck on.

• Opens and closes an electrical circuit to start/stop a function
• Common symptoms include no response, intermittent operation, or a feature that won't turn off
• Can be checked with a multimeter for continuity when actuated

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Access the control area to reach the switch; note/photograph wire positions
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time and secure connections
