General Electric Cooktop JP970BK2BB Element will not heat

The Infinite Control Switch is an OEM part for GE ranges and cooktops. This switch regulates the heat levels of the burners, allowing users to adjust the cooking temperature to their desired setting. It ensures that each burner provides consistent and controllable heat for precise cooking.

Causes of a bad infinite control switch can include regular wear and tear, electrical surges, or damage from spills and splashes. Over time, these factors can lead to the switch malfunctioning, which may result in poor temperature control or complete failure of the burner.

Symptoms of a bad infinite control switch include:

• The burner not heating up or heating inconsistently
• The burner staying on high heat regardless of the setting
• Difficulty adjusting the burner temperature
• The switch feeling loose or unresponsive

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This 12-inch halogen oven element replaces a damaged baking element to restore heating for conventional halogen-equipped ovens. It provides direct radiant heat for baking and helps recover proper oven temperature and cooking performance. What it does

• Radiant halogen heating element for bake/roast functions
• Replaces cracked, burned-out, or non-heating elements
• Commonly used when oven won't reach temperature, heats unevenly, or shows no heat from the bake cycle
• Works with OEM mounting and connector styles for a direct-fit replacement

• Disconnect power at the breaker before any service to avoid shock
• Allow the oven to cool fully and wear gloves to protect hands from sharp edges and glass
• Handle the element carefully—halogen elements can be fragile and may break if dropped or flexed
• Verify secure electrical connections and proper mounting before restoring power; test oven on a short bake cycle
