Hi All,

Hope you can help me with this issue I have here.

I have looked through the forums, but did not see a post involving the oven model I have; and so I started a new one.

I have a Whirlpool oven and cooktop range
Model Number WERE300 SQ1
Type P30

After cooking breakfast today, I realized that the cooktop light was still on, yet all the burners were in their 'off' position.

Has anyone encountered a similar problem and have a suggestion to fix this issue?

Thanks
Viv

I believe that the given model number is incorrect should be 3000 not 300.

Here are your parts
Parts for Whirlpool WERE3000SQ1 Range - AppliancePartsPros.com

See the attachment for the tech sheet.

As you can see in the tech sheet the Cooktop On light is controlled by a set of contacts (switch) in the infinite control switches.
Sounds like one of the switches is shorted and is holding the light on all the time.
