Nancy August 16, 2014 for Model Number 790.94683300 The part (316049800) to replace my dual element infinite switch does not look at all like the one that is on my range. First of all mine is white and the picture of the part is black. Second and more important, my switch has 6 wires going to it and the part pictured only has 5. Any suggestions? We have been the only owners of this appliance and never have had it repaired.
1 Answer Nancy, The correct dual element switch for your model would be part number 316238201. Read More...
Adam O March 22, 2014 for Model Number FEF375BHBB I have a Fridgedaire glass top and most recently my wife has noticing the front right burner getting very hot. She has been using the same iron pans for years so we know it's not the pans. It's as if some circuit has quit regulating the temperature or something. She also has been noticing another burner starting to act goofy as we'll. Curious what part is going out or if anyone knows what could be causing this behavior. Thanks!
1 Answer Adam, In most cases with the unit having a overheating element it is because the limiter on the element has failed. This would require the right front element 318198834 to be replaced. Read More...
Kenmc September 24, 2013 for Model Number FEF369CGSD The center part of the (right front) dual element burner does not work, the outside ring is OK. How do I test to find if the problem is the selector rocker switch, burner, or the burner switch? Frigidaire Range Model - FEF369CGSD, Serial - VF01716433.
1 Answer Ken, If the element works when the unit is set for the small element but is not working on the dual element setting then the issue would most likely be in the infinite switch. If the rocker switch was not working then the large element would not come on at all. If the center element does not work at all then you will need to look at the element to make sure that it is not burnt out. Read More...

John March 06, 2013 for Model Number FEF389WFCI How to replace frigidaire smooth top surface element switch Switch part number is 316049800
1 Answer John, You will need to pull unit from wall. Disconnect power from unit and remove the control panel rear cover. Once cover is removed you will remove knob from the front and take the 2 screws out holding the switch in place. Once out, one at a time transfer the wires from one switch to the other making sure you watch what terminal they came off of and put on the same on the new switch. Once all are transferred, screw new switch in place and install knob and rear cover. Plug unit in and slide back into position. Read More...
Tasha November 29, 2011 for Model Number FEF369CGSD My front top range will not heat at all is this what I need to purchase? The surface light comes on but not the cook top on the right front.
1 Answer Hi Tasha. Take a flash light and look closely at the "ribbon" of the burner itself and see if you can see a black burnt open spot where the ribbon has opened. If so it is burner part # 318178110. The same goes for the far RT. Infinite switch after removing the power and the back guard. If you see the black burnt areas of the switch contacts below the red dot, this may mean the switch is burnt out. It is a more common failure with the infinite switches. Part # 316436000. Thank You.
