Beth for Model Number KERC507HBS3

Right rear burner not working. Indicator light is lit when turned on. I understand it could be infinite switch or element. Could you give me info. on how to determine this along with part #'s. Also I think that the correct part # for the element is AP6030929, but I'm a bit confused because this part description says small, but on my stove the right rear burner is the medium one with the left rear being the smallest. On the right rear the circle measures 7 inches, but it looks as though the element as seen through the glass measures 8 inches. Thanks!

Beth, If you test at the infinite control switch from the H1 to the H2 terminals for 240 vac. If there is 240 vac then the element will be the issue with the unit. The switch part number is WP9750638.

Diana, The infinite control switch would be the more likely and more common problem for an element that won't heat. You would need to have a multi meter TJMA-DM1 to test the infinite switch circuits to see which contacts have failed . You would also use the meter to test the element ribbon circuits as well as the sensor circuits on the side of the element. Once you remove power and the glass top, you'll have access to both the switches and burner elements, you can then visually inspect both parts for visible damage, arc marks and broken burnt wires, etc. then use the meter to test the circuits.
