Please help!!! One day I turned on one of the elements on my Frigidaire electric stove/cooktop oven and placed a pot on it, when I was done I went to shut off the element as I usually do, but the element did not shut off and stays on in full force unless I unplug the oven from the wall. What do you think is the cause for this? What do I need to replace? I hope someone can help. Thanks in advance, Morris.

We have the exact same issue with our product and I am wondering if you have had any success getting your stove top repaired.

Hi moedekoven

In order to provide you with accurate advise I need the complete model number of your range and as much as possible information describing the problem.

pamsch,

What is the complete model number of the unit? Can you be more specific on the problem, please?

Gene.

The complete model number is PLEF398CCC. Naturally our warrant ended in August.

It is the front right side burner which is the one with the smaller element and the bigger element all on one dial.

Did it show any error code on the LED display?

No, we were cooking on it and had turned it down to low to simmer and everything was boiling. We took the pan off and the element was still on high. We turned it off and it said HE for hot element like it always does only it never went off.

We turned it the other direction and the big element came on, and that would then turn off but the small element would not turn off at all.
