Customer Questions and Answers for Surface Burner Switch by Frigidaire

Vicki, According to the manufacturer, this will be the correct switch and most likely 2 of the red wires will connect to the same connector.

Peggy, to access the switches the main top would indeed need to be removed. Prior to removing the main top, the knobs would need to be removed so that the switch insert 318183504 can be lifted up. This will allow the switch mounting screws to be accessed.

Andrew, it would be recommended that the switches are tested while the range is unplugged from the power outlet. The switches, when in the dual on position, should read continuity from the terminal P2 to terminal 4 and then P2 to 4a. There should also be continuity when testing from terminal P1 to terminal 2. If the switches test good, then the issue would be with the left element 5304533520 and right element 316282100. It would be recommended that the wiring is inspected from the switches to the elements for any bare, broken, or loose wires before replacing the elements.

Matt, With the red wire having burnt this would most likely be a loose connection but would more likely be a burner that is faulty.

Steve, The L1 and L2 and the H1 and H2 on the board being mixed up should not cause an issue but make sure that they are not the correct terminals. The L1 should have a black wire and the L2 should have a Red wire and the H1 and H2 should not matter. This issue may be caused by a faulty element.

Gary, Yes the large switch 318293825 will work for a 9" element.

Hello Mark. no, the small burner switch is a lower amperage and will eventually blow it. You will need to order the large switch.

Scott, Yes, for the large burner the part number for the infinite switch will be 318293825.

Thanks for the update and information, we all will appreciate the information.

Hello Don. You should have 2 wires going to the element. Those are H1 and H2. Then you should have 2 power supply wires. Those are L1 and L2. The wire going to the pilot wire is P. You need to match the marking from the old switch to the new switch. The wiring diagram I found is not matching the colors you provided. It shows black to L1, red to L2, blue to P and then no wire colors for H1 and H2. Thanks.
