KECC502BAL0 KitchenAid Cooktop - Instructions

Turned power completely off. Removed knob from front panel. Opened range top cover. Removed 3 screws from aluminum panel protector behind the element switch. Once panel is removed you can see the switch element. Remove 2 screws from the front panel that connects to the element switch. Remove the old element and replace with new element making sure that each of the 5 wires on the old element is transferred one by one to the new element. Reverse the process in putting it all together. Turn on the power and walla you've have a new stove. You just save $600 plus.

just needed clearner for the top of my glass top, the operator was very helpful I received my clearniner in 7 days thank you

Thanks for the previous viewer's tip, disconnect power, pushed the cook top out of the counter and used a wood block for the support. Unscrew the smooth top from the burner, remove old and plug in the new one. Connect power, test OK. Put everything back.

Removed glass surface and identified existing wiring (sketch, photo, schematics) before disconnecting and removing it. Installed the new switch and connected the wires using the supplied wiring instructions as well as my sketch and schematics. Appreciate that the new switch came with wire extenders and shrink tubing. Had to use both of them.
Replaced the glass top and installed it back into the counter ,Turned on the circuit breaker and everything worked perfect. Just want to mention that I am extremely satisfied with PartSelect service. It is second time I ordered cooktop part. The delivery is prompt and the parts work as required

Removing the stove top was easy, it was just setting in place. Put some blankets over the kitchen island and did the repair their. Most difficult thing was, how stight the wires were. After removing the switch cover, I wound it nessary to remove the inside side wall of the switch box in order to have enouph room to change the switch. Works just fine now. Thanks for your service.

We had been missing it for years. Perhaps it melted, maybe the dog. Anyway, Home Depot didnt have the match. I order the exact knob, received it in a very timely manner. Took it out of the package, and without any tool, placed it it it rightful spot. My wife is happy now. Thanks for helping me.

Replacement was simple. Old switch was easily removed. Once I swapped the wires from old to new we were in business. One thing I would do differently than the included directions called for. I wish I had waited until I had installed the new switch to set the shaft length. I snapped off one too many sections of the shaft after measuring the original shaft as recommended. If I had installed the replacement switch and then set the shaft length it would have been more accurate. Everything still works but one knob is now slightly lower than the other three.

I broke the correct post from the new cluster of post selections and stuck it on. I had the kit for a couple of weeks before I realized that this was not an electrical problem. It would have been good of you to send only the new plastic post. That kit was intimidating for a 73 year old woman who lives in the country and does most of her own plumbing and other household repairs. The repair took less that one minute.

Followed the instructions in the switch kit. Unpluged range glass cook-top power cord. Lifted smooth cook-top out of counter hole. Removed about 10 sheet metal screws around box/glass surface interface. Removed all 5 infinite control power switch knobs vertically. Lifted glass cook-top from element box. Set cook-top aside on edge away from work area. Flipped switch control box cover and identified which switch was to be replaced. Noted colors and terminal post data. Replaced 1 wire at a time per the kit instructions. Reversed procedures. Turned unit on and confirmed proper function. That was it!
