Burners were intermittently working.
It turns out that the 6" and 8" burners we actually broken and the infinite switch for the 8" burner was not working properly. These we very simple replacements. You just need to note the numbers on the original burners to make sure that you use the same numbers on the bottom of the burners so that they install in the same slots. The wires on the infinite switch match and this takes less than 5 minutes to remove the back of the stove top and the front switch handle. Simple replace the infinite switch and the burners and whoowhooo ,,.... the fix is done.

Infinite switch replacement.
I followed the instructions as provided. When I finished I noticed the switch was 1/4 turn out from the off position mark on the stove. So I pulled the stove back out and took the back panel off again pulled the knobs back off took out the screws that held the switches in place and rotated the switch 1/4 turn counter clockwise. Then I replaced all the screws and knobs . Then I replaced the panel and shoved the stove back in place. One of the burners was an eight inch and the switch doesn't work as well as it could. However there was not a direct replacement for the eight inch burner.

May tag electric stove stopped working. No burners, no oven, no clock, no oven light. If i turn the left 6" burner knob back and forth the clock and over lights work but not the oven or burners are working.? could it be caused by left infinite switch? thanks
For model number PER5710BAQ
Hi Robert,
Thank you for your inquiry. It may be your switch. You can test it with a multi-meter to be sure, however it sounds more like it is going to be your wiring or the control board that may be the issue. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

No power after cleaning oven and changing light in oven...
For model number MER5750BAQ
Hi Andre,
Thank you for your question. There are a number of things that could have happened to make your appliance stop working after changing the bulb. If you did not turn off the power to your appliance when changing the part, you should check your breaker. You might also want to check your elements and your temperature sensor. If all of those parts are fine, then you might have shorted out your electronic control board. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

What difference between 6' and 8' switch?
For model number YGY397LXUQ04
Hello Alexey, thank you for reaching out. The 6-inch infinite switch controls the smaller 6-inch surface element. While the 8-inch infinite switch controls the larger 8-inch surface element. We hope this information helps!

Why do you charge $54 for this part when amazon only charges $23?

I have a Maytag ceramic cook top range mer6772bab. The right front burner turns on and goes very hot when turned on. Does not matter whether it is set at low, medium or high. It is either full on or off. What should i replace to fix this problem?
For model number MER6772BAB
Hi Peter, thank you for your question. There are a couple of parts that could cause this issue specifically. You will need a multi meter to be able to test the parts. The first part you will want to check is your radiant element. It should be reading between 0 - 120 ohms to be working correctly. The other part to check would be your infinite (or surface burner) switch. When you remove that part from the appliance, connect each probe from your multi meter to the prongs and then turn the switch to an on position. If you get no continuity then the switch is the issue. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Hello, my range will preheat but then at some point will shut completely off. The oven light will go off and will have to be re started. Thanks
For model number MER5550AAW
Hi Mike,
Thank you for your inquiry. There are a few parts that you will have to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the long oven sensor, the terminal block, the bake element, the surface burner receptacle, the indicator light and the infinite switches. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Heating switch turns off, but indicator light stays on, right side of stove, left side works ok.
For model number MER6769BAW
Hi Samuel,
Thank you for your inquiry. It sounds like you will have to replace this switch then. If you would like, you can test the part with a multi-meter to see if it is in fact the part that is causing your issue. Good luck with your repair!
