Electric Range

Model Number: 790-94680300 Brand: Kenmore Age: 1 - 5 years

Left front ring stays maximum heat when truned on. Cannot adjust to a lower setting. This element has a simmer button which will cool the ring off. Is this a bad control knob?

Most likely the problem is a bad infinite switch for this burner.

- The part number for the infinite switch is AP2124692

Good luck.
Gene.
