Rodney S Kuttawa , KY August 17, 2014 Appliance: Whirlpool Electric Built- In Cooktop GJC3034GB0 Failed dual element switch on whirlpool ceramic cooktop model #gjc3034gb0 This cooktop has a dual element with an inner burner surrounded by an outer burner. The switch controls either the inner burner alone or both. The switch failed in that it would not operate the inner burner by itself, both burners would come on and only on high. On 8/14/2014 I replaced the failed dual element switch as follows: • Turned power off to cooktop. • Removed unit from cabinet. • Removed metal edging and glass top. • Removed screws holding switch panel access underside. • Removed old switch from panel but left wires on. • Reconnected wires to new switch according to instructions. • Attached new switch to panel and reinstalled panel. • Made sure heating elements were still in correct position. • Re-installed glass top and edging and dropped unit in opening. • Tested switch. Functioned normally. I ordered the switch around noon and it arrived the next day before noon. Excellent service.

Robert C Marion , NC February 12, 2017 Appliance: Whirlpool Electric Built- In Cooktop GJC3034GB0 The large 9" dual burner on a flat cooktop would always heat on both burners no matter the setting Installed a new infinite Switch. Everyone needs to be aware this Switch is not a "plug and play"; it requires you to use two jumper wires that come with the Switch. The instructions are quite good; just take good notes of where you take the wires off from. The old Switch had numbers; whereas the new Switch has letters.

Richard P Bayville , NY July 16, 2016 A dual burner was not going on in the cooktop I diagnosed the problem to be an infinite switch. You helped me find the part number and shipped the switch out promptly. I replaced the switch and everything is working again. Thank you. Read More...
