Description
Regain versatile control over your ceramic glass cooktop with the Electrolux 316239601KIT Dual Element Infinite Control Switch. This genuine OEM switch (sometimes referred to as a potentiometer) is the electronic component mounted behind the control panel knob that regulates the heat output of a dual-size radiant surface element**. This allows you to select both the small inner element and the larger outer element, as well as infinitely vary the temperature of both. Replacing this switch is necessary if the element gets stuck on one heat setting or fails to turn on at all.
Features & Benefits
- Genuine OEM dual element switch controls both the inner and outer circuits of a dual radiant burner.
- Allows the user to select either the small or large heating element size.
- Restores precise and infinite temperature adjustment across all heat settings.
- Resolves issues where the burner is stuck on one size/temperature or is completely unresponsive.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
- Dual radiant burner is stuck on the small (inner) size, even when switched to large (outer).
- The burner fails to heat up, or heats erratically/inconsistently.
- The control knob spins or feels loose, but the element size/temperature does not change.
