My whirlpool glass top stove "Cooktop On" light stays on after I turn control knob to off position and does not go off until I unplug the stove. Largest cooking element stays heated - the other three stays cool.

Very likely the problem is a bad infinite switch for this burner. If you need the correct part number, post winch burner exactly is acting up.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for Whirlpool WFE361LVB0 30" ELECTRIC CERAN FREESTANDING RANGE SELF CLEAN CONVE | AppliancePartsPros.com

Hello Gene, the Front Right burner is acting up. It is the large one with single element (vs dual element on the Front Left burner). I looked at the diagrams and there are three part numbers: Large Surface is AP3095444, Small Surface AP3095448, and Infinite Switch AP4365154.

Hi Gene,

My whirlpool "cooktop ON" light stays always on now. But I do not know how to find out which infinite switch fails. Can you please tell me how to test and find it out?

Thanks,
Wei
