Sal April 06, 2017 I noticed on the infinite switches, some of them have longer rods sticking out. My stove uses the shorter ones on the infinite switches; otherwise the knob sticks out too far. How can I ensure I get the shorter one? it's for the larger burner on a Whirlpool electrical range. I had bought one a few years back, on ebay, but it was too long, and the knob sticks out further than the rest... . I ordered a 3149400, which said it was the same as 3148953 & 3148954...
1 Answer Sal, A model number would've been more helpful, but. Both switches WP3149400 / 3149400 and WP3148953 / 3148953 are for 8" burners, the difference is the WP3148953 has a 3/4 - 5/8 in. long shaft and the WP3149400 has a 7/8 - 1" long shaft. Measure the shaft length of the original switch to determine which switch you need. Thanks, Read More...
Tom February 21, 2017 for Model Number WFE361LVQ1 Trying to find the large burner control switch on front left side but this model number will not work.
Jed December 12, 2016 for Model Number GR399LXHS1 I'm looking to replace the surface element and surface switch. For the surface element it is the large front right which I believe is part WP8523696, but unsure of the switch. Is it WP3149400? Indicator light comes on but no power to the heating element. Checked H1 to H2 and read zero ohms, also checked from L1 to L2 on the switch and also read zero.
Pete August 01, 2016 for Model Number RF385PXWW I have a Whirlpool stove in a rental property where the tenant had one of the 6 inch burners melt. I have replaced the burner but it still will not work. (The new burner does heat if I move it to the other 6 in burner). Am I safe to say that I need to replace the infinite switch which controls the burner? Is there any other thing that it could be?
1 Answer Hello Pete, You will need to check the element receptacle 12001676 and if good, replace the infinite switch WP3148952. Read More...
Judy K. July 20, 2016 for Model Number RF263LXTB3 I am looking for the correct infinity switch for the large left front burner. I think this is the right one but am confused as to how to measure the burner, is it internal diameter that constitutes the size? I think it is an 8" burner.
Pat March 15, 2016 for Model Number rf265lxtq o Front right 2500w burner went out. replaced. the burner quit shutting off to regulate heat. I replaced infinite switch to. Now it takes forever to to start shutting off to regulate heat. What could be causing that?
1 Answer Hello Pat, If the limiter in the element assembly W11047722 is not responsible, the issue will have to be the infinite switch WP9758060. Read More...
Steve January 17, 2016 for Model Number RF262LXSB0 the indicator light will not go off and one of the large burners goes nuts part of the time and either will not shut off or stays on high. Other times it will work ok other than the light will stay on all the time whether a switch is on or off. will replacing the switch solve both problems as I for sure want the light on all the time issue resolved so we are sure the burners are actually off when the switches are off.
1 Answer Hello Steve, This can be due to a failed infinite switch or a harness issue. You will need to pull the tech sheet and get out your test meter to determine the issue. A failed infinite switch will show continuity when turned off. During testing the switches, be sure to tap on them since it is an intermittent issue. It is not as common but possible to have a shorted limiter in one of the surface element limiters. The part numbers for these issues are determined by which surface element is exhibiting the symptoms. Read More...
Mark December 28, 2015 for Model Number RF310PXVN2 I need to replace infinite control switch part #3148951 Is that still available? If not, what replaces it? Thanks
Lew December 26, 2015 for Model Number Dacor 2100d The rear large burner does not operate in the low range. It does turn off, but on low, 1 or 2, it gets very hot. Also the original Dacor infinite controller switch appears to be no longer available. So (1) does it sound like the controller switch, and (2) is there a replacement part?
1 Answer Lew, This issue does sound like it would be caused by a faulty infinite switch and unfortunately there is no suitable replacement parts for a discontinued part. Read More...
