For Frigidaire Range Large Surface Element Switch (Part Number: OEM11656389)

Susan, the switch 316436000 and element 316135401 can be tested to identify which part has failed. With the back panel of the console removed, the switch can be tested for voltage by turning the switch on, placing one meter probe at the terminal H1 and the other probe at the terminal H2. If there is 240VAC, the switch is good and the likely failure is the element.
