- Commonly fails when a burner won't heat, stays off, or won't reach/select set heat levels
- Can cause erratic heating or loss of click/response at certain knob settings
- Works with the burner control knob to step power through multiple heat ranges

- Disconnect power at the breaker before starting any repair to avoid shock
- May require removal of the cooktop or control panel and the control knob for access
- Match wiring connections and mounting orientation exactly; take a photo before disassembly
