Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Range Infinite Switch Top Burner Control (Part Number: OEM18023013)

Jim for Model Number MER8674AB0

Hi, for our MER8674AB0 stove, the right front large burner (~9.5" diameter) is heating uncontrollably, so we are looking to replace the switch. I see the surface switch WP3149404 for the small element and it lists the part number WP3149400 for the large element. Unfortunately, the WP3149400 description does not show as compatible with our MER8674AB0 stove? Alternately, there are two other infinite switches WPW10411934 and WPW10434452. Is there some way to confirm which is the correct switch for us? Thank you

Carlos M for Model Number WFE320M0ES0

I have a Whirlpool Electric Range that the "Cooktop ON" idicator light stays on. It happened ever since a storm we had the other day we lost power then when it came back that light stays on. I have already tried powering down and waiting then power up again. What part do you recommend I change? I was thinking to just change the indicator light but the same thing will still happen won't it? Maybe replace a switch? Also is the range safe to use for now?

Carlos, This issue would be caused by a faulty infinite switch. You can disconnect the purple wire from each switch and test from the terminal to chassis of the unit to see if there is 120 vac at the terminal. If there is then this would be the issue.

Hello Keith. It is normal for the elements to cycle on and off. If it is to much, replace the switch on the unit.
