Size: 6-32 x 3/8 inch.

An infinite switch that controls the heat level for an electric range surface element, allowing smooth temperature adjustments and reliable burner control. Replaces a faulty control to restore consistent element heating and variable heat settings. What it does:

• Regulates power to a single electric surface element so the burner can vary between low and high heat.
• Used when a burner won't heat, stays at one temperature, or heats inconsistently.
• Replaces the control behind the range knob to return normal temperature responsiveness.
• Matches the original function and is intended for surface (coil/glass-top) element control.

• Disconnect the range from power at the breaker before starting any repairs.
• Keep terminals and wiring dry; avoid touching exposed contacts during installation.

This infinite switch controls power to a 6-inch surface element on an electric range or cooktop, allowing smooth heat adjustment from low to high. Replace a worn switch to restore consistent burner control and cooking performance.

• Regulates power to a 6-inch surface burner as you turn the knob
• Provides variable heat by cycling power on and off at the selected setting
• Typical failure symptoms: burner won't heat, only heats on high, won't adjust temperature, or won't shut off

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Pull off the control knob and access the switch from the control panel; note/take a photo of wire locations
• Transfer wires to the new switch one at a time to match terminals; mount the switch and reinstall knob/panel
• Restore power and test the 6-inch burner through all settings

This is the variable heat control for an 8-inch surface element. When the switch fails, the burner may stop heating, stay on high, or lose precise temperature control—replacing it restores smooth, adjustable cooking performance. What it does:

• Regulates power to the 8-inch surface element for variable heat settings
• Common symptoms: burner only on high, no heat, won't shut off, or won't adjust temperature
• Restores proper cycling of the element for consistent heating
• Matches the 8-inch element position designated on the appliance

• 1 surface burner infinite switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Remove the control knob and access the switch from the control panel/rear panel
• Transfer wires one at a time from the old switch to the same terminals on the new switch
• Secure the switch, reinstall panels/knob, and test the 8-inch burner operation

This switch bracket mounting seal replaces a worn or damaged seal that cushions and protects the door or control switch mounting area. It helps keep the switch assembly seated and reduces debris and moisture intrusion for reliable operation. What it does:

• Seals the switch bracket mounting area to protect the switch from lint, dust and moisture
• Helps keep the switch properly positioned for accurate door or control sensing
• Can prevent intermittent or failed switch contacts caused by contamination or misalignment
• Useful when replacing a brittle, torn or missing mounting seal during switch or door repairs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the door or panel per service instructions to access the switch bracket area
• Fit the seal into the bracket groove or around the switch housing, ensuring full seating without stretching
• Inspect adjacent clips or screws and reuse or replace as needed; test the switch function after reassembly

This latch knob screw secures the latch knob to its shaft on compatible appliances. Replace a missing, stripped, or rusted screw to restore a firm, reliable attachment and proper latch/knob operation. What it does:

• Attaches the latch knob securely to the latch mechanism/shaft
• Helps maintain proper door latch engagement and knob control
• Common fix for a loose, wobbly, or falling-off knob
• Replaces a lost, corroded, or cross-threaded screw

• 1 latch knob screw

• Disconnect power and allow the appliance to cool completely before servicing
• Align the knob on the shaft and start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten with the correct screwdriver; do not overtighten to prevent damage
• The latch engages and releases smoothly after installation

This surface heating element powers one of your range's top burners, restoring steady, responsive heat for everyday cooking. Replace a failed element to bring your cooktop back to consistent performance when boiling, simmering, or sautéing.

• Provides heat to the selected surface burner when the control is turned on
• Works with the burner switch to reach and maintain set temperatures
• Common symptoms of failure: burner won't heat, heats unevenly or intermittently, or shows visible damage/hot spots
• Helps resolve long heat-up times and inconsistent cooking results

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the cooktop to cool completely before servicing.
• Access and mounting vary by model; note wire locations and transfer any brackets/clips from the original element.
• Inspect terminals and connectors; replace any heat-damaged wiring or receptacles before reconnecting.
• Handle by the frame and avoid stressing the element; ensure secure electrical connections before testing.
