Electric Cooktop Element Goes to High

If the electric Cooktop element on your Samsung range goes immediately to high regardless of where it is set, it cannot be anything but the infinite switch. There is no need to even test the switch since the switch is the only part on the Cooktop that causes the problem.

Electric Cooktop Element Will Not Turn On

If the electric element on your Samsung Cooktop will not turn on, it could be that it is burned out. But a bad element is just one of several things that could be wrong with the Cooktop. It could be a damaged receptacle. If it has an element that plugs in, pull the element out and check the plug ends and receptacle itself. If there is a lot of pitting or charring, you will need to replace the element and the receptacle. Another possibility is a burned-out infinite switch. Test the voltage on the switch at the two terminals that link to the element whenever the switch is on. You can call Appliance Medic to repair this kind of problems.

Gas Cooktop Burner Will Not Fire Up

If a burner on your gas Samsung Cooktop will not fire up, it could be that the spark module is burned out. Check that the ignitor is receiving 120 volts and that the valve switch is sending 120 volts to begin the ignition. If you cannot hear any clicking sounds in the range, then the spark module is the problem. But the defective spark module could be the result of a burned-out valve switch. A leaky or worn-out ignition wire is another possibility. The ignition wire insulation sometimes wears thin in areas and causes high voltage sparks. The electrical supply receptacle could be wired in reverse and you can call Appliance Medic for repair this kind of problems.

Gas Cooktop Flame Cannot Be Adjusted
