Customer Questions and Answers for Infinite Switch (Dual Surface Element) by Whirlpool

This dual infinite surface element switch controls the inner and outer sections of a dual burner. Replacing a faulty switch restores proper selection and smooth temperature control when the burner won't heat, stays on high, or behaves erratically.

• Varies power to both circuits of a dual surface element for adjustable heat
• Enables inner-only or both-ring operation, based on knob position
• Interfaces with the control knob to set and modulate heat levels
• Typical symptoms: no heat, only one ring heats, stuck on high, won't shut off, or inconsistent temperatures

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; ranges use high voltage
• Note terminal labels and wire positions; transfer wires one at a time to matching terminals on the new switch
• Secure the switch to the control panel, align the shaft, and reinstall the knob
