This surface element control switch is designed to regulate the heat level of a small 6-inch electric surface burner, allowing users to smoothly adjust cooking temperatures from low to high. By controlling the amount of power sent to the heating element, it helps deliver consistent and responsive heat for everyday cooking tasks. Rated for 240 volts and capable of handling elements within the 1296 to 1680 watt range, this switch is commonly replaced when a burner will not heat, fails to turn on, or remains stuck at one temperature. As a direct-fit replacement, it restores proper burner control and safe, reliable operation of the cooktop.
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. Simply put, this means that the company who made your appliance is also supplying the replacement part for it.
