How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and do not use the cooktop. Broken glass can expose live parts and cause electric shock.

  • Do not operate: Do not use any burners until the glass top is replaced.
  • Replace glass top: Remove the cooktop from the counter (if separate) or open the range top. Disconnect elements as needed, transfer them to the new Whirlpool glass top, and reinstall.
  • Handle carefully: Wear cut-resistant gloves and dispose of broken glass safely.
