Surface burner switch needed replacement
Followed the procedure used in replacing the previous switches. The part came without a bushing needed to adjust the height of the knob sticking above the surface of controls. Fortunately, I could use the bushing from the previous part. I suggest a bushing should be included with this part.

Cooktop switch control quit controlling temperature properly
1. I cut off the circuit breaker for the stovetop and removed items on the shelf directly under the cooktop
2. I looked under the cooktop and unscrewed the two screws holding the panel under the switch controls and removed the panel.
3. I pulled the knob up off of the bad cooktop control switch.
4 I unscrewed the two screws holding the bad cooktop switch control.
5. I looked under the cooktop and pulled the bad cooktop control switch down so I could remove the wires connected to it.
6. I got the new switch control and put the wires from the old control onto the new control, one-at-a-time, to the same labelled connection on the new control, which was a somewhat different arrangement.
7. I worked the new control up through the wires and put the knob shaft up through the hole in the cooktop.
8. Back on top, I installed the two screws I had removed from the old switch control to hold the new control to the stovetop.
9. I reinstalled the control knob onto the control.
10. I turned back on the circuit breaker for the stovetop and checked out the operation of the new switch control. It worked fine.
11. I turned the circuit breaker back off and reinstalled the panel cover under the switch controls, with the two screws I had removed earlier.
12. I turned back on the circuit breaker for the stovetop.
13 I put the items back onto the shelf directly under the stovetop.
14. Job done!

Largest burner was not operational
After turning off the power to the unit, we took it out of the countertop and unscrewed the base of the unit. We then unplugged the damaged coil and plugged in the replacement part. We then screwed the base of the unit back on and replaced the unit in the countertop. The largest burner now works.

"hot" indicator light on glass cook top burned out
After removing pots / pans in cabinet below cook top and turning off the power, I was able to remove the panel held by 2 screws. Pulling the old light out was just a little difficult as it came in pieces. New one popped right in, hooked up terminals, replaced the panel and that was it !!

Right front burner would not turn off!
I ordered the 8" burner switch and two of the screws! I flipped the surface top up side down and removed 2 screws that held the cover over all the switches. I flipped it right side up to remove the 2 screws in the bad switch, flipped it over again to switch the wires from bad switch to new one, being careful to keep the letters and numbers matched. Replaced the 2 screws on top side and replaced the cover on the bottom and went back to cooking! Very easy!

Element would not heat up
Removed 2 screws located underneath the front lip of the range top. Lifted range top and supported. Removed the 2 screws at either end of the support bracket. This bracket holds the elements in position. Be careful not to let the elements fall out when removing. The elements are now free to replace. Swap out the old with the new and be sure to reconnect the wires to the correct terminals on the new element. I did 1 wire at a time so as to not make a mistake at reconnecting the wires. Then replace the support bracket with the 2 screws and lower the range top in place and put back the 2 screws that hold the range top in position. VOILA!! Success. It works. The wife is now happy again:)
