Original dual infinite switch (Harper-Wyman) #414564 (Bosch AP2831995, #14-61-258) stopped working properly about 4 years ago. I installed a Robert Shaw INF-240PX-803 (5500-200) that doesn't adjust the temperature settings accurately (too hot, too cold, etc.)...my wife hates it! Is there a better replacement for the OEM switch (picture attached)? JLondon attached the following image(s):

The original switch, as you know is no longer available and there is no crossing to any other parts. The universal Robert Shaw switch is most likely the only thing come close. Simon.

Not sure. The RS 5500-200 is connected and functions the same as the OEM switch...just not as good. The way the switch works, turn counter clockwise (left side) for single element, turn clockwise (right side) for dual element.
