Whirlpool WP8522405 Range Infinite Burner Switch
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP8522405 Range Infinite Burner Switch is a replacement item for Whirlpool, KitchenAid, and Kenmore electric ranges. This knob serves as the burner element's control centre, allowing you to infinitely change the heat setting from low to high. The knob's connection to a variable resistor is what does the magic. The position of the knob determines how this resistor adjusts its resistance. The resistance varies as you turn the knob, controlling how much power is sent to the burner element. The level of heat produced is directly controlled by this fine regulation. An infinite burner switch gone bad can seriously ruin your cooking.
