Description

This infinite switch controls the heat level of an electric cooktop surface burner, restoring variable temperature control for cooking. It replaces a failed or erratic burner control to help burners heat evenly and respond to the knob. What it does:

• Regulates current to a surface heating element so the burner cycles between power levels
• Restores adjustable heat when a burner stays on one setting, won't heat, or heats intermittently
• Replaces a worn or damaged control that causes inconsistent burner performance
• Works with the cooktop's control knob to provide stepped power levels for cooking

What's included:

• One infinite switch assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker before servicing
• Match this part to the existing switch by part number and terminal layout before installation
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; secure connectors fully to prevent loose connections
