The Infinite Heat Switch Kit is an OEM part for GE ranges and cooktops. This kit is essential for controlling the temperature of the burners on your range or cooktop, allowing you to adjust the heat level from low to high.
Causes of damage to the infinite heat switch can include normal wear and tear from frequent use, electrical issues such as short circuits or power surges, and physical damage from cleaning or impact.
Symptoms of a bad Infinite Heat Switch include:
- Burners not heating to the desired temperature, either staying too hot or not getting hot enough.
- The burner not turning on at all, indicating a possible failure in the switch's electrical contacts or circuit.
- Inconsistent cooking temperatures, where the burner cycles on and off too frequently or not often enough, affecting cooking performance.
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
