Possible Causes

Burned-out radiant element, Failed infinite switch or electronic control relay, Loose wiring at element terminals, Failed hot surface indicator switch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and verify the cooktop is cool before lifting the glass.

  • Access element: Remove mounting screws and carefully lift the glass top to expose the radiant elements.
  • Inspect element: Look for visible breaks or burn spots in the element coil. A broken element must be replaced.
  • Check connections: Ensure all wires to the element and limiter are secure and not burned.
  • Control check: If the element and wiring appear intact, the infinite switch (on knob-controlled models) or the electronic control relay (on touch models) may be faulty and require replacement.

Support the glass top while working to avoid stress and cracking.
