Hello Rob. W10823692 is the dual element you will need to order.

Hello Keith,
To test the infinite switch for a dual burner, follow these instructions: 1. Disconnect the electrical power to the range. 2. Set the ohmmeter to the R X 1 scale. 3. Turn the dual element infinite switch to the “single” position. 4. Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the
following terminals. The meter should indicate continuity (0 O): a) P1 - 4. b) P1 - S2. c) P2 - 2. 5. Touch the ohmmeter test leads to terminals P1 and 4a. The meter should indicate an open circuit (infinite). 6. Turn the dual element infinite switch to the “dual” position.
7. Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the following terminals. The meter should indicate continuity (0 O): a) P1 - 4. b) P1 - 4a. c) P1 - S2. d) P2 - 2.
To test the left front (LF) dual element and limiter: a) Disconnect the wires from the dual element terminals. b) Disconnect the wires from limiter terminals 1A and 1B. c) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the 800W element terminals (orange/white wire). The meter should indicate 50 O ±10%. d) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the 1600W element terminals (orange/black wire). The meter should indicate
38 O ±10%. e) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to limiter terminals 1A & 2A. The meter should indicate continuity (0 O). f) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to limiter terminals 1B & 2B. With the temperature below 150°F, the meter should indicate an open circuit (infinite).
With the temperature above 150°F, the meter should indicate continuity (0 O).

Hello Marc. Check and make sure the switch is wired properly on the unit.
