Whirlpool cooktop -slow & low heat

Model Number: RC8600XPO Brand: Whirlpool Age: More than 10 years

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com

I have an older (way older) Whirlpool cooktop. All four burners take about 45 seconds on high setting to heat up enough that you have to take your hand off the burner. Appliance dealer in town thought electric leading to cooktop, but that checks out okay. What else could it be? Can't be burners, as all 4 are the same. It will heat up eventually if put on high.

Thank you for your thoughts.
