I've had the same failure both front burners of my Whirlpool stove where the burners have stayed on super nova orange glow with the control on a low setting like 1 or 2. The first time I burned a pan of mushrooms and set off the smoke alarm while I was getting the grill ready for some steaks and boiled over a pan of brats last weekend. I'm surprised there isn't a recall or some warning on these switches, or a better fail-safe design. This could be dangerous!
Super helpful video. Wrong part arrived in the mail, but thanks to you I was at least able to get far enough to identify the problem and one step closer to a working stovetop.
Do you live with me ? Because I just upgraded to a flat top stove. Wife likes it :). Second hand btw. One of the burners were disconnected I fixed it with better spade. ( high jack professional) But the switch keep staying on. And you came in and game me the solution. Thanks pal
Haha that's great man! Glad to hear that the video came at a good time for you. 😄 It's a nice stove, I am sure you are enjoying it! (besides burning things on high heat) I agree with getting them second hand too, that's the way to go! 👍
Hahaha I love the pun Eddy! All is well on Big Island my friend. God is good. We are being asked to move out of our rental by the end of October (homeowner moving back in) so we will be getting busy with the move pretty soon here. Always good to see you in the comments! May God bless you and yours. Have a fantastically wonderful rest of the week!
@@WordofAdviceTV Your very welcome, you explain things in a way everyone can understand, that helps a ton bud. I wish I had all the money you've saved people over the years with your videos. You have a great weekend to.
Thank a lots Bro! I like your tip by directly transfer from old switch to new switch wires! I just done mine with different model. You must enjoying living HA now!?? Inland OHIO too much snow ❄️😅now!!!!
This is the best video for this fix I've seen -- thank you! One question: when I look up the part on repairclinic or deyparts, there are three control switches listed for my GE JSP47SH2SS (two "surface element switches" and an "inf switch") -- which one do I need for my front left burner that doesn't turn off? Edit: I see you directed me to the part I needed with a red arrow on the diagram (1:54) and highlighted the part number (1:56). AMAZINGLY HELPFUL! Thanks again!
You are an excellent communicator and teacher. I have a question regarding our Whirlpool range -Model:RF362LXSQ. Front left burner was going but not alternating off to on as usual, and as we got the repair man he seems to have fixed it and now it’s pulsating again, but it takes about 30 seconds in intervals. First hot, then it goes off for 30 seconds, then it comes back again. Is the 30 seconds interval normal time? When my wife called the technician again to enquire, he said the settings are in the manufacturer and can’t be changed.. it either works or it doesn’t.
I think the sticking point is if your controls are not up front like yours. Mine are in the back which, as you said, would necessitate moving the stove out from the wall.
Great video! Have you had a situation where the electric range was hot to the touch when the oven was on? I mean the range was so hot that it could burn you when the oven was on.
Aloha David! Sorry I have not gotten back to you until now. I have not been on CZcams during the weekend as things got busy here. I answered the first batch of comments and only came back to answer more now. Your comment probably came in after I already left the first time.
@@WordofAdviceTV it's okay buddy 👍 I figured it may have went to spam section it does a lot anymore to a lot of my comments someone said that it was l o l I use alot in my texts..
Hey Jay, I love your show man, the absolute best of YT for HVAC and I watch a lot of them as I’m in trade school now. I think it would be very cool to compile the different sounds that components make and compare to the sounds they make when they’re broken or breaking down (rough motors, bearings, compressor etc.) God Bless brother!
Hey Logan, I'm happy to hear you enjoy the channel! I actually had that idea before too but there were just so many variables involved that I dropped the project. Noise issues tend to vary quite a bit from case to case. For example, a rattling noise in a furnace could be caused by the inducer motor, blower motor, bottom metal cover piece, the ducts, or who knows what else (a stuck bird, bat, or squirrel are some odd ones I've seen). 😅 I do appreciate the suggestion though! Good luck in school, become a legend! God bless you and yours as well!
you remind me of the two mushrooms that go into a bar and buy everyone one a drink. Why you ask. Simple, because they are a fungi! 🤦♂ Enjoyed your video and shared with my dear Joan so maybe she'll do this repair instead of me - ha! God bless! 🇨🇱 🇺🇸
Don't currently have this problem but now I'm equipped in case I do. (Assuming it can happen with traditional electric ovens with the metal burners?) Thanks!
It's good to be in the know-how. 🙂 Like my grandpa used to say, "knowledge is never a burden, learn as much as you can!" Oh yes, this can happen even with the older models, although I firmly believe the old ones were of much better, durable quality. That being said, with those metal spiral burners, usually it is the receptacle which it plugs into that starts falling apart and needs to be replaced.
Great video. My GE oven is just like that one and it has the exact same problem. It also has the hidden bake element, would you please consider doing a video on how to replace that on that same GE model? Thanks much. Mike
Thank you Mike! Well shucks, it sounds like these GE ranges have a manufacturer defect then if you are having the same issue. I would love to make a video on how to replace the hidden bake element but this video was filmed in Minnesota during our visit there... Now we are back in Hawaii so by the time I get the chance to film a video on the topic, I am thinking you may no longer need it. 😅
My left front burner was used last night and all of a sudden won’t completely turn off and but not stuck on high . It’s like the button won’t catch to click off so it’s touchy and that keeps the “hot surface light on” that could be the same part too ? Mine are on the back of the unit
Aloha Jim!! Things have been a little hectic on Big Island lately so I have not been posting weekly like I used to. Glad to hear you missed the videos though! We have not moved but we will be moving in October. (staying on the island, just moving to a different rental) Our little guy is actually already 3! He is growing up super fast! I hope things are going good on your side of the world as well. May God bless you and yours, have a wonderfully fabulous weekend!!
LOL I have the same problem the stove is built on top. And there's no way to remove it unless you go from underneath. But that would be very complicated. On top it's completely flat.
Well hello good buddy 👍👌👊🤙🤟✌️ my number one good buddy good to see you Jay I have been wondering how you all were doing I saw in Eddy comment you are going to move well I hope and pray 🙏 everything work out for you guys Arnold is watching with me now and he said to tell you hello buddy 🐕🐾 ✌️ I'm not doing good today I fell down the steps outside today and all my weight came down on my left shoulder so now I can't hardly use my left arm and it's hurting but I'll make it good buddy 👍 Well I love you buddy and tell the family I love them all to and I will be praying 🙏 for you all take care and God bless you my friend 🙏.
Howdy David! Always nice to see your comment come in! Yes, we need to move by the end of October but we trust the Lord will guide us to the perfect place, exactly where we should be. We wanted to move closer to the church we attend (an hour and a half drive from us currently) so this came in as a confirmation for us to do so. Thank you for wishing us well and Arnold's greetings have been accepted and we send you two Aloha from Hawaii back your way! My son was just crying his head off because he accidentally let the gecko I caught him escape. 😄🦎 Oh wow! Sorry to hear that you fell down David. Thankfully you didn't break any bones.. May it heal up fast and you be back to 100% faster than you think it possible! I love the positive attitude despite the mishap! Thank you for your love, prayers, and blessings. May the good Lord bless you and yours as well!! Take care of yourself as good as you take care of Arnold over there 😄🤙👍👍
Nice video, Jay 👍 I had to do that to may old 1979 Tappan counter top range a couple of years ago. And of course with ebay, low and behold I found one exactly like it. In the old days, I would have to drive to Brockton, Mass to get the part. I should have made a video. Oh well, I don't have the charm and smooth talking, handsomeness like you. ☹️
Thanks Mr. Classic! You are a man of multi-talents my friend! Even this you have already done before. 😄 And I am sure if you put your mind to it, you could have made some great videos as well! This is a good field of work. It doesn't matter much how you talk or look. People just want their appliance fixed. If you can help them with that, they will be overjoyed 🙂
Jay i have a fridgidare glass top stove, the main burner lights up, then shuts off, i took it apart and didn’t notice anything wrong, however i didnt test it with meter, in your opinion is it the switch? It acts like the contact in the switch disconnects, i was going to replace that part
Hi. Thanks so much for this great video. Your visuals and commentary are great. Can someone please tell me what to do when the original infinite switch doesn't;t look the same, which way to I insert the new switch. The new one looks like yours with the letters on the face. Should I put A in the bottom "6" position? I couldn't find any details on the original to dictate which end is "up". If installed upside down, will the dial just not work correctly????
Aloha Wendy! Everything is good over here! We will be moving to another rental soon but other than that things are peaceful. Hope the same goes for you, have a wonderful weekend!!
Just wondering, what if it doesn't come on at all. We have this old electric stove in the basement that has only 2 burns working out of 4. Could it be that infinite switch?
Aloha man, too bad you are in Hawaii! Do you have anybody to suggest (handyman A/C) in Rochester MN? My system works but does not cool very well only 12-14 degrees difference between IN/OUT air. I was told that the freon is fine I must have a restriction in the evaporator so I need to change the entire system! The only thing I remember is the R22 reading was 42 on the low side, the high side I don't remember but the tech. said it was ok...Thank you so much!
Yeah! Now that you mention that, I have noticed that before. It seems like manufacturers can't sit still and don't feel like they accomplished much unless they redesign the range. 😅 "Giving it a fresh new look"
Thank you! I try to make it look and sound good, though it doesn't always work. 😅 My wife is my camera person, using a Sony A7sIII. For sound we use Rode micro wireless microphones. (they rock!) And the editing is done on Adobe Premiere Pro. Amazon links to the equipment I use should be in the video description as well. 👍
Hey jay i have two questions regarding the evaporation coil on my ac. Would i be able to spray the coil with alcohol to clean it? I always clean it with a garden hose. [It's a window unit]. But i thought that alcohol would do a good job of disinfecting the coil with a combination of the hose. My second question is that my evaporator coil has a little bit of ice on it. It's so little that i can still see the color of the copper. Is it normal to have a little bit of ice or is it not normal? I already watched the video (8 reason why your ac is freezing up). I didn't find any issues in the video that my unit has. Thanks. By the way, I've been watching and utilizing your advice to service my ac's for some time now and i love your videos.
how do you know it is the switch and not the element? i have a sumsung and it stays on all the time ,but I saw other video and they replace the element.
we had a repair guy here today who didn't look at anything. he plugged the range back in to confirm what he had told him that the one burner would not shut off, then told us we needed a $250 or so control panel...not just a switch.
Yes, I will try to make a video like that later on. Thank you for the suggestion! Likely either the burner element needs to be replaced or the switch/control board is not sending power to it. I have also seen the hot wire going to the element burned off. (likely a loose connection caused high heat) That one is easiest to fix. Simply snip off the burnt part, put on a new connector and all done!
Man I had my outlet put on the wall behind the oven. I cannot stand it being on the floor what would happen if somebody knocked over a bucket of water when I wasn't home
I actually had the same question when I first heard the name! I hope that you don't mind me copying and pasting the explanation from Wikipedia as they explained it better than I would have 😄 "An infinite switch, simmerstat, energy regulator or infinite controller is a type of switch that allows variable power output of a heating element of an electric stove. It is called "infinite" because its average output is infinitely variable rather than being limited to a few switched levels."
Wow! Awesome exactly what I needed thank you so much very helpful.

Hi. Thanks so much for this great video. Your visuals and commentary are great.

Notice that the knobs are reversed left and right on each side, compared
to older models of years ago?
Yeah! Now that you mention that, I have noticed that before. It seems like manufacturers can't sit still and don't feel like they accomplished much unless they redesign the range. 😅 "Giving it a fresh new look"

Scammer tech
This is not what I’m looking for. Something else isn’t working but I replaced the infinite switch.
Hi Jay, nice videos. Are you Mennonite by any chance? You remind me of some Mennonite guys up in Canada in Abbotsford!
Did you fart while plugging it back in 😂
Next one can you show us what to do when the burner won’t heat up!!
Yes, I will try to make a video like that later on. Thank you for the suggestion! Likely either the burner element needs to be replaced or the switch/control board is not sending power to it. I have also seen the hot wire going to the element burned off. (likely a loose connection caused high heat) That one is easiest to fix.

An outlet on the wall is fine too of course and it's a nice safety precaution. Thank you for sharing!
Why the term infinite?
I actually had the same question when I first heard the name! I hope that you don't mind me copying and pasting the explanation from Wikipedia as they explained it better than I would have 😄
"An infinite switch, simmerstat, energy regulator or infinite controller is a

infinitely variable rather than being limited to a few switched levels."
My stove top switch won't turn the burner off
You are making unplugging too complicated. Just pull the stove out from the wall and slide a skinny person in back to unplug it.
I didn't know that bottom draw comes out.
👍👍👍
Harry, no matter what anyone may say about you, I think you are a great man!
its a lot easier to just flip the breaker off, then back on when your done.
