Indicator light is always on when burners are off. Last time I replaced bulb but it stayed on as well.
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Chris, thank you for getting in touch. If your cooktop indicator light stays on even when the burner is off, then it is not an issue with the light itself. Instead, it is because of a stuck contact in one of the heat switches. You can test and see which one is powering the light. You can test this with a multimeter. Infinite switches for your model are part numbers PS236754 and PS236750. We hope this helps, good luck with this repair!

Remove nobs from both switches.
Pull out the range (the hardest part).
REMOVE THE POWER PLUG FROM THE WALL
Remove 7 screws with nut driver and take off upper back panel.
Remove 2 phillips screws from front, they hold the switch brackets.
The new switches don't fit in the bracket so discard the bracket keeping the screws.
Removing 1 wire at a time from the old switch transfer to the new noting the letter/number ie "H1 P1" combos they are all there just not in the same places on the new switch.
When wiring is complete, using the bracket ,screws from the front screw on the switches.
Replace the back panel with 7 screws.
In my case the old nobs did not fit the shafts of the new switches. I found some at the local hardware store. I bought 4 for $0.29 each! I expect to be replacing the other burner switches shortly.
