I have a Whirlpool glasstop range model#GR475LXMS

The front left burner is a double burner - heats up either single or double burner.
The problem is it only cooks on high. The same thing happens whether I use the small or large burner option.

I have no idea to what to look for? Any help would be appreciated

Replace the switch on both burners. The burner only know to come on. The switch tells it how hot. Replace both switches, and you will have it. Tom Appliance Educator, Appliance Parts, Washer and Dryer Parts, Refridgerator and Freezer Parts, Stove and Oven Parts

I know it's been a few months but I'm finally getting back around to fixing the switch.

I looked under the glasstop and I saw what I'm assuming is the switch. I checked the parts section but I don't know I'm looking for. Again, I could use some guidance.

I know this is an old thread but I have the exact problem as the original poster with the same model stove. I also have the problem with the double burner which from the original response seems to require 2 switches.

Can someone help me identify the switches needed? The original link posted is no longer taking me to the exact part page.

Thanks
