Tonija April 22, 2014 for Model Number Rf263lxtb1 My oven will not work. I replaced both the bake and broil elements and it still want work. Any suggestions? Could it be a fuse or maybe a sensor.

Mickey April 09, 2014 for Model Number WFE361LVT Large right/front radiant element cycles on and off rapidly. Is it possibly a defective switch?
1 Answer Hello Mickey. It is possible that the switch is defective. Or the sensor on the element may be the culprit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Gerry W March 26, 2014 How do I tell if the switch on a stove or the element is bad.?? My switch on the whirlpool glass top wasn't working , so I took it off and then replaced it while waiting for a new one. Now when the switch is turned on, the light on the stove goes on showing the switch on, but the burner does not get hot. Not sure if switch or element is bad. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Gerry. Test for 120 volts on H1 and H2 when the switch is turned on. If it is there, the switch is good and the element is bad. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

1 Answer Hello Jay. Look at the old switch. Each terminal has a marking. Usually it is L1, L2, H1, H2, and P. Just match the wires to the same location on the new switch as they were on the old switch. Read More...
Mark February 19, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool RF262LXSB4 My 'Cooktop On' light stays on when the knows are in the Off position. Do the Surface Unit Switches control this light as well? Thanks!
Casey December 17, 2013 for Model Number RF362LXST My small right rear burner doesn't come on at all and my right front large burner sticks on high periodically. Should both problems be solved by replacing the infinite limit switches?
1 Answer Hello Casey. If the switch is bad and not the element on the right rear, then 2 switches should fix the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Chris December 02, 2013 for Model Number RF376LXGW0 My Range has a 10 inch burner, not 8 and the old infinate switch is rated 10.0 to 11.5 A. Will the switch rated from 8.9 to 11.0 A for the 8 inch burner work?
Lisa October 13, 2013 for Model Number RF386PXDBO I have a Whirlpool Electric Range (Model RF386PXDBO). The metal stem that the knob attaches to has broken off (front right burner). It appears that I need to replace it with the Surface Unit Switch (part# 3149400). Can you confirm that this is the correct part? Thank you for your time!
1 Answer Lisa, the surface element switch for the right front small burner is part number WP3148952. Thanks! Read More...
Dewayne H. October 08, 2013 for Model Number 7909421340c I just ordered an infinite switch. I removed wire by wire when I noticed on the old location h1 and h2 is in different location than on the new one and the l2 l1 is the h1 h2 on the new location. Is this the right switch or just but l1 to l1 no matter.
1 Answer Hello Dewayne, The manufacturers are always trying to improve the parts on the units and this is a common question. You just have to make sure the wires are connected to the terminals labeled as the old terminals were labeled. It will still work just fine. Read More...
