The infinite burner switch is used to control the temperature of the burner element on your stove top. This model is for the larger, eight-inch element. If your burner is not heating up or has uneven temperatures, you should first check with a multimeter to see if the issue is with the element or with the infinite burner switch. If you need to replace the switch, first disconnect the power supply to your range. To change this part, you will need access to the back panel, so you will need to pull the appliance out from the wall. To complete the repair, you will need a pair of needle nose pliers, a number one square head screwdriver, and a Philips screwdriver. The specifications for this genuine OEM part are that the switch is 240-volt, 2100-2600 watt, and 8.8-10.8 amp.

Oven is giving error code F10
For model number Model No. FFEF3018LWF
Hi Diane, thank you for contacting us. The F10 error on your range is an overheating fault. It means the oven is going above the set temperature and is not cycling properly. This error is most likely caused by a failed temperature sensor, part number PS1528542, which may need to be replaced. We hope this solves your problem!

Heating element was intermittently over heating and switch was sparking
Followed the repair instructions at each of the parts web pages. Also found that the instructions at this location were helpful to understand why the new switch did not look like the original switch.
Bottom Bake Element burned out and my 8 inch stove eye would get stuck on high heat.
I flipped the breaker to my range then unplugged it from the wall. I removed my oven door and bake racks for easy access. Bake element was as easy as removing two screws, unplugged 2 wires and removed the old element. Attached wires and screws to the new element, slid the bake racks back in and attached the oven door. Since I had to repa
... Read moreir the Infinite Burner Switch I left the range unplugged until that project was finished. I removed 5 screws from the top back plate covering the Burner switches. Gently pulled the knob off the front of the range. Removed the 2 screws from the Burner switch and went to the back for the repair. I pulled out my new Burner switch to compare with the old piece and found that my new replacement part looked different from the old part. I did call for help because there was a huge difference in appearance. I was given a phone number to call because the part number was coming up to be the right product for my Model number. I called the manufacture and was told that it was the right part to which I asked if it was a replacement for the original part since mine looked different. It indeed was a replacement but they couldn't tell me how to hook it up so they gave me another number to call. This was a service center and they couldn't advise me on the proper hookup. Now mind you the old Switch has codes like H1, H2, P and so on, so I was thinking that all I had to do was look for the same codes on the replacement part and place each wire that I removed from to old to the new being mindful to attach to the same code. This is where I chickened out and let my husband do that ....just in case.....lol. After placing all wires to the new part, I attached it back to the range with the two screws and pushed the knob back on. Husband attached the back plate with the 5 screws, plugged range back up and turned the breaker back on. We are now cooking as if we had a new range! My advice is don't be afraid to TRY!!!!!! Saved my family a huge repair bill.
The new part is bigger than the old part, not exactly the same shape .
The new switch has the same terminal mark like L1,P1,L2 etc. The terminals are not at the same location of the switch as the original one. However, I just removed and reconnected the wires in accordance with the terminal marks and it worked perfectly. I saw the same manufacturer name in the old and new switch and this gave me the confide

Unplugged the stove from the wall, from the back of stove removed the 3 screws holding the upper cover of stove to access the infinite burner switch. Took a pair of pliers and simply removed the five electric connectors from old switch and replaced them on the new switch. There were 5 in all. I let the part hang with all the new connector
... Read mores attached. I removed the 2 screws holding the old switch to the stove. removed old switch and screwed the new switch in. replaced knob,back plate and plugged the oven back in. Easy repair would have cost bunches to hire someone else. It took 15 minutes tops! BTW I have never worked on a stove before! Yes it was a success!
Cooktop Element wouldn't turn off, needed switch. Bake element dissolved when cooking, needed new
The switch was very easy. Just a few screws to take out of the rear panel, then pull the wires off the old and put n new. I did them one at I time so I wouldn't have to keep track. Recommend bright light or flashlight, the imprint for which connector it is is really hard to read. Works same as original, it's just laid out differently
... Read moreso you need to look at the label (P, L1, etc) before you move the wire. If it doesn't work right away, look at the other switch of the same size that works to make sure you got the right wire on the right prong (I initially used the wrong one, the letter I could read but the 1 and 2 are tiny). Works great now.
