Cooktop cleaner was sprayed on top of dial causing short circuit
A cleaning spray was allowed to caused a short circuit of the infinite control switch. Here is the sequence of a very easy way to repair it: Turn off the power to the unit. Take the bottom metal cover off. You should be able to find the one that was burnt out (my was the bigger surface burner switch). Take photos of how each colored wire are connected ( I used my cell phone). Review the photos!! You will see that the switch has two clamps holding the metal cover to the plastic casing on the sides. Using a narrow screw driver, pop loose the plastic casing from the metal clamps. This way you don't have to take the unit totally apart. The metal casing should be fine. Clean it well, making sure it is dry. Take the new switch and also take the plastic casing from the metal top cover. Replace the metal pin and the plastic casing only. Make sure you line it up the same way with the little blue box in the same orientation. You may not have enough room for your hand and your view. By feel, you should be able to place it there and pop it in. Check the taken photos and connect the wires following the same diagram. Replace back the metal cover. Turn the power on. Enjoy dinner!!! Michael.

Burner knob had broken
Just replaced the knob, no tools needed. The knob I ordered was the exact type of my old one so was no problem. Thanks for fast shipping and correct item.

Haliant element was not heating
Take off the two small screws under the glass top. Use a nut driver or small Cresent wrench. Prop up or have somone hold the top up while you remove the old element and make sure you mark where the two clips that hold it to the top are located. Now disconnected the wires and attached them to the new element. My suggestion is to take off only one wire at a time and attach it to the new unit. A very easy fix. Not more than a 15- 30 minute effort.
