First, hello. My name is Rob, and I'm writing from VA. I've repaired a dryer and dishwasher before. I thought replacing a burner on my flat-top stove would be simple, but the replacement part I ordered is different enough to make me wonder if I have the right part. The new part is the same size and shape, but the connectors are different in two ways. First, two of the connectors are smaller than the plugs that need to connect to them. Second, visually I can reconnect the wires in the same way, but each is labeled 2a, 2b etc, and if I follow these, they will be connected in a different configuration. Should I follow the labels (2a same as 2a) or the visual setup? NOTE - Pic w/ connected wires is existing burner. Thanks. Hope my first post asking a question like this isn't breaking any forum etiquette rules, but I'm stumped and need to get this stove fixed before we move in two days.

The part is made by Electrolux, #318178110. I ordered it through another online appliance parts site, which I've used in the past. I'd like to use the part if I can, but if it is wrong, I will return it and get the Frigidaire part.

Frigidaire is owned by Electrolux and as far as parts are concerned there is no difference between the brands. However the part number you got from the other site is incorrect and won't work. I would recommend returning the part and gettng the right one instead.
