Parts for Magic Chef 88FN-2: 02 - Top Assembly Parts

This surface element supplies heat to an electric range or cooktop burner. When it fails, the burner may not heat or may heat inconsistently. Replacing the element restores steady, reliable cooking performance.

• Converts electrical energy into heat for the cooking zone
• Works with the surface control (infinite switch) to regulate temperature
• Common symptoms: burner won't heat, intermittent or uneven heating, visible breaks/blistering, burnt/melted terminals
• A failed element will not glow or reach set temperature when energized

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing and allow the cooktop to cool completely
• If your model uses a plug-in coil style: remove the drip pan, pull the element straight out of the receptacle, and inspect/replace a heat-damaged receptacle as needed
• If your model uses an under-glass radiant style: lift the cooktop, transfer any clips/limiters from the old element, and route wires exactly as original
• After reassembly, test the burner at a low setting to ensure proper operation

This part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.

This replacement control knob fits the surface element infinite switch, allowing you to turn the burner on and set the heat level. Replace a cracked or missing knob to restore safe, accurate burner control.

• Attaches to the surface burner's infinite switch to select OFF through heat settings
• Restores positive grip when the original knob is cracked, stripped, or missing
• Typical symptoms: knob spins freely, won't stay on, is hard to turn, or has broken pointer
• Helps ensure clear setting indication and consistent adjustment

• Disconnect power to the range/cooktop before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off the switch shaft—no tools required
• Align the new knob with the switch shaft and press firmly until fully seated
• The pointer aligns correctly with OFF and heat settings

When used regularly, protects your solid cooking elements from rusting and spotting. Helps maintain the original black matte appearance.
