Brandt Energy Regulator / Infinite Switch Failure

Electric ceramic zone on a Brandt cooktop heats only on maximum or does not regulate temperature properly.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn contacts in infinite switch, Faulty simmerstat, Loose knob shaft, Damaged wiring to regulator

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the control panel.

Steps:

Symptom check: If the zone is either fully on or off regardless of knob position, the regulator is likely faulty.
Access controls: Remove the front control panel or hob frame to reach the infinite switches.
Inspect wiring: Ensure all terminals are tight and not burnt.
Replace regulator: Swap the suspect energy regulator with a new Brandt-compatible part, transferring wires one by one to avoid miswiring.
