Steve S. May 19, 2017 for Model Number Thermador RDDS30VQW s/n 20060260 about 17 years old I still have the original potentiometers, one is totally gone (won't turn on gas at all) , the other is "half bad" (turns on the gas but no intermittent feature). I still have the original simmer controller. I know the old pots are discontinued. Can I replace just the pots with the new 422748 WITHOUT changing the simmer control to the new 422882? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Steve, I'm sorry but the old potentiometers will not work with the new simmer control and the new potentiometers will not work with the old simmer control. This is what the manufacturer means when they say to replace all parts when ordered in the kit 00497234 because the potentiometers and controllers are incompatible with one another. Attempting to do so will destroy the simmer controller and can create a fire hazard with the potentiometers. Read More...
Sb May 06, 2017 for Model Number Thermador PGR484GG Will this pentameter fit my thermidorian burner?? NO gas/No spark. They have the old reefs part. do i need a conversion kit too? Thanks
1 Answer SB, The part number that you will need for the potentiometer is 00422748 and would not need the simmer control. Read More...
Jerry Lindsey January 09, 2017 for Model Number RDFS 30QB SN# 99030001 I was able to troubleshoot the problem to a faulty potentiometer. Unfortunately I ordered one and it is an updated style . I read that you helped someone on here with a schematic and other parts to rectify the problem. I am wondering if the potentiometers can be eliminated and replace the xlo burners with standard. Any help would be appreciated as the stove looks like new yet.
1 Answer Jerry, Unfortunately the xlo burners cannot be replaced with regular burners. If you got the potentiometer 00422748 then this will not work for your unit and will need to get potentiometer 00422749. It is still a new design but the wire harness should still connect to it. Read More...

Dwa June 07, 2016 for Model Number PCS486GLUS We need 2 potentiometer original part number 20-01-872-01, replaced by 189816. Thermador representative says the newest replacement part is 0042278. Do you think this is correct? Thank you!
Russ May 26, 2016 for Model Number RDSS30 S/N 9707 & UP Thanks for your prompt reply and recommendation (to replace the solenoid valve) to my previous question which was as follows:( Left rear burner does not lite, no gas flow. All burners spark. I replaced the gas valve for that burner to no avail. Your web site says potentiometer #AP3782975 is not compatible with my model. What next? Thanks.) I misspoke as I replaced the solenoid valve not the gas valve. Since that is what you recommended, what should I try next? The potentiometer? The simmer controller? Thanks again.
1 Answer Hello Russ. If the solenoid was new, then the gas valve would be next. replace the gas valve for that burner. Read More...

Scott October 25, 2015 for Model Number Thermador PCG364E L/01 The blue indicator light on the left (x-low burner) side of the Thermador PCG364EL/01 cooktop stays lit when the burners are turned off. Right side indicator works,as does grill light all burners and grill operate normally
1 Answer Scott, The most likely cause for the indicator light to stay on for this unit would be a faulty potentiometer which for your unit is part number 00647864. Read More...
