For Whirlpool Cooktop Infinite Switch (Part Number: OEM18145395)

Rajs for Model Number Jenn Air CCE3401 cooktop

Hello, I am in need of two (2) INFINITE SWITCH for my Jenn Air CCE3401 cooktop. I need it for the following: 1) Left front 6" burner 2) Right front 9" burner My questions are: Will the Part Number AP4088404 (MFG Number 71001166 ) work for both positions? Do I need two different kinds of switches such that the knobs turn properly consistent with the heat level markings since one burner is on left and the other on the right? Thanks, RAJS

Dan for Model Number JENN-AIR Model CVE3401

I am in need of an INFINITE SWITCH (SINGLE) and I see it listed as MFG PN 71001166. I had purchased a switch (not from you) which has on it: INF-240TP-1177 240 VAC, 7403P405-60. I was assurred that it was the correct switch and it looks like it from an electrical stand point. The problem is that it only has 2 threaded mounting holes (where the one I am taking out has 4 holes even though only 2 are used) and the holes are 90 degrees off which would make the knob index completely wrong. The question is, does this switch have 4 mounting holes so I can rotate it 90 degrees in any direction so as to get the proper knob index? Regards, Dan

Henry for Model Number MAYTAG CSE9600ACB

Hi: I have a 5 burner Glass Island Stove Top with the center rear (6") unit not working. The Infinite Switch does NOT feel like the other four and seems to be the problem. I have not taken it apart as yet but have looked at the unit carefully. I believe that I can take the side sheet metal screws off (8 of them ?) and lift the Glass Top off, putting it carefully to the side. Once I do that, are all the five switches mounted in the metal box? Do I simply remove and replace the switch, matching the wiring pattern of the new switch to that of the old one? Thanks. Henry

Hello Henry. On the back of the switch the spades will be marked. Match the old markings to the new switch markings.

James, Yes the infinite switches would be the cause of the unit only giving high heat and no simmer.

Hello Lois. You will need to disconnect the power going to the unit. Then uninstall the unit where you can access the screws on the side of the burner box. Remove the knobs and the screws holding the cooktop in place. Lift the cooktop off the burner box and place it on a soft surface. Now you should be able to access the infinite switches. Reinstall in reverse order. Hope this helps.
