The Infinite Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges and cooktops, intricately designed to regulate the heat of the burners. This essential component allows for precise temperature control, enabling users to adjust the heat setting from low to high with infinite variability, hence its name.
The primary causes for these issues often stem from electrical problems within the switch itself, such as worn contacts or internal components failing.
Symptoms of a malfunctioning Infinite Switch include:
- The burner not heating up or only reaching a single temperature, regardless of the setting
- The burner heating intermittently or not turning on at all
- Unpredictable temperature fluctuations, making cooking difficult and unreliable
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
