The original switch went bad, had to change it.
September 18, 2023

this is the third time that I have changed the switches. It is an engineering malfunction. When cooking with the switch set on four or five it sometimes goes full hot. Can't be away from the stove for a minute. It is too dangerous. The small burners have never done it, but both of the large ones have several times.

Replacement part different appearances
March 13, 2022

The only issue I had was it should come with a basic wiring instruction sheet. This part replaced a 20 something year old part so they looked nothing alike.
