Description
The Surface Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges and cooktops. This component is essential for providing the heat necessary for cooking on the stove, converting electrical energy into the heat needed to cook food.
Over time, surface elements can become faulty due to wear and tear, overheating, or electrical issues. Replacing a bad surface element ensures the appliance continues to perform effectively and safely.
Symptoms of a bad surface element include:
- The element not heating up or only heating intermittently
- Visible damage such as burns or breaks in the element
- Uneven cooking due to inconsistent heat distribution
- The element not responding to temperature adjustments
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
Note: For the 6-inch element, order WPY04100165.
