Frigidaire Cooktop TEC6X3XCDA Element will not heat

The Surface Unit Switch Kit is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges. It controls the power and heat levels to the surface burners on the cooktop, allowing you to adjust the temperature for cooking. This kit typically includes the necessary components to replace a faulty switch and restore proper functionality to the burners.

Causes of a bad surface unit switch can include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear from regular use, or damage due to spills or impacts. A faulty switch can prevent the burner from heating correctly or at all.

Symptoms of a bad surface unit switch include:

• Burners not heating up or heating unevenly
• Inability to adjust the burner temperature
• Burners not turning on or off properly
• Sparks or electrical odors near the switch

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

This is the large surface heating unit for an electric range or cooktop. Replacing a failing unit restores consistent stovetop heat so cookware warms predictably and meals cook evenly.

• Provides the heat source for the large burner position on an electric cooktop
• Converts electrical energy into controlled cooking heat
• Replace if the burner won't heat, heats intermittently or unevenly, or shows visible breaks, blistering, or burn spots
• Loose, pitted, or discolored terminals can also indicate the unit is failing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing and allow all components to cool completely
• If your model uses plug-in coils: lift slightly and pull the old unit straight out of the receptacle; align and push the new unit straight in until fully seated
• Inspect the burner receptacle for heat damage before reassembly
• Restore power and test operation on low and high settings

The Large Chrome Drip Pan is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire cooktops, designed to fit beneath the burner elements. It is responsible for providing a clean surface and maintain cleanliness. The drip pan catches spills and drips that occur during cooking, preventing them from reaching the interior of the stove where they can become burnt-on and difficult to clean. This large chrome drip pan measures approximately 8 inches in diameter.

Causes of a bad drip pan can include frequent exposure to high heat, spills, and regular cleaning, which can lead to discoloration, warping, or rust over time. When the drip pan becomes damaged or worn out, it may no longer effectively catch spills or reflect heat, affecting both cleanliness and cooking performance.

Symptoms of a bad part include:

• Visible signs of damage, wear, rust, or corrosion on the drip pan 
• Uneven stove element
• Difficulty cleaning spills and grease accumulating on the pan
• Unsightly appearance of the stove
• Difficulty cleaning the stove surface

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.
