Thanks for this video! You helped a 29 year old woman figure out why her stove burner kept getting bright red on a low setting. I purchased and replaced the part myself thanks to this video. It is working like it should now.
Nice fix, Mandy! Thank you so much for watching!
I'm a industrial maintenance electrician with more certifications than brain cells left and seriously, skid bro, I learn a ton from your videos and usually get a good laugh. Now I'm fixing all kinds of appliances around the house instead of just junking them. Thanks man!
Awesome! If you ever want to cross over into Apartments, you'll be ready. 😆 Thank you so much for watching Towelie! Don't forget to bring a towel.
I'm a simple man. When lex uploads a new vid, I watch.
Thank you so much for watching Ryan!
Yes sir same here!
At 2:27 minute mark, you talk about using a flathead screwdriver to help remove the wires without damaging them. That's exactly the kind of tips/tricks I'm looking for, cuz' if anything can wrong, it always does for me. Thanks for the awesome tip!!
Good to know about those dots, Lex. Every video you do I learn something new that I wasn't aware of. Thanks!!
Right on! Thank you so much for watching Thomas!
Thanks for the uploads, Lex! I learn a lot from them. I've been in high rise building maintenance for 1.5 years now and love the company I am with! I had lots of renovation and construction knowledge before this ( basic plumbing and electrical as well )
I will be signing up for BOMI courses next month to work towards a few tickets. I love that every day is a little bit different than the day before. We've got about 285 suites in the highrise building ( and 12 of them are big 2 storey townhouses attached to the tower as well )
I love to learn and I usually go with the contractors to watch and learn from them too. My knowledge is so much higher, just from doing that one thing too. We've got 2 large boilers that I am familiar with now, 3 massive domestic hot water tanks and multiple booster pumps and controllers, some heat pumps and a large MUA on the roof. No AC attached to it though. Just a few stand along condensers for some certain amenities rooms ( theater, coffee room, office, top floor lounge etc. ) It's a pretty sweet building. Minus the water leaks hahaha.
Thanks again for the videos...keep em coming! I particularly like the appliance repair ones as we do fix a lot of machines in my building as well. I also like your HVAC vids too. Hell...I like em all lol! Take care man.
Wow right on! Thank you so much for watching Man Time!
Thank you for sharing this video I’m a single woman that stays in an apartment. I submitted a work order but I was still curious to see what the maintenance personal was going to do to fix this issue.
Thank you so much for watching Gaybrial!
Great video, as always! I appreciate the knowledge you put out there, helps the new guys getting into this field big time. Keep up the great work Lex👍
Thank you so much for watching Manny!

Thank you... Clear instructions in repairing myself and saving $$!
Thank you so much for watching!
I love your videos Man you inspired me to be a maintenance technician Rock on
Right on! Thank you so much for watching!
Having a problem with burners that stayed on high when you turned them down, I saw a comment on a video recently where a guy talked about making adjustments to the switch. If you have it off and, hold it with one hand, and turn the know with the other you will see that it moves inside. After ordering a couple new dual switches, the old switches seem to work like they should. I am thinking it is possible that these switched get gummed up a bit and stick. I do believe that this problem is not one to mess with, but at 68 years old and having 7 adult children, and 10 grand-children, it's always a good idea to see if something can be fixed.
Thank you so much for watching!
great video lex...good job showing about the wattage difference....guy that trained me years ago never mentioned that to me..
Thank you so much for watching working shlub!
Easy money right lex 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

There's a place in Michigan that's Christmas year round. It's called Frankenmuth

Hi, very informative video. I’m having issues my two big coil burners on my Frigidaire stove not staying at one heating level. They go from very hot to simmer constantly. Any idea of what could be my problem? Thank you.
Could be the infinite switch is going bad. You'll need to look and see if it's burned and if it is, change them out. Thank you so much for watching!
Could you make another video about talking to residents. I’m a student maintenance worker at my university and I’m trying to work on my people skills when I’m doing work orders
Right on. I'll brainstorm it and see what I can come up with. Thank you so much for watching Ollin!
Thanks for the education. When the knob was off, I would have cleaned off that dirt & grime on that face plate. 👍🏼
Thank you so much for watching impetiousdoom!
Thanks... I knw what to do now.. nice video bro..
Thank you so much for watching Mike!
Thanks I needed to see that again very informative
You're welcome Orlando! Thank you so much for watching!
Great video!!! Thank you for the info.😊
Thank you so much for watching Kimberly!
Hi I found your video, thank you for it but what if I have a ge electric stove and ALL the burners seem too hot, not one allows me to simmer anything they all boil. Any suggestions?
Sounds like all the infinite switches are bad. I'd have to look and see if there's burn marks in them. Thank you so much for watching!
What if the switch in the back doesn't look burnt in back of stove on the GE stove burner. We have the same problem an took back off an looks bran new just like outher switch's in back
Still could be bad. Sometimes they don't look burned. I hope everything works out for you.
@@LexVance Thank you for responding so quickly. That's what I thought too an maybe the switch is bad like said an it's wierd man. I can Maneuver the burner an it kinda will work an it's just sketchy so I think we will buy new a switch an thank you again very much an it's from 2013 in good shape. Im going to subscribe to you. Much appreciated Lex.
Happy New Year as well. " 2023 " 🎊🎉🎆🎇
What's my next step if I changed the receptacle block and burner and that burner still isn't working. I wired the block up right. I need to tear into the range and mess with wires somewhere else ?
It may be a bad mother board. I'd need to be there for this head scratcher. 🤔
Merry Christmas skid
Merry Christmas Justin! 🎄 ⛄
Hello thank you for your video it sabe me a lot of money but I followed to the T ur instructions but when I tested it my switches are mirror big burner to the right instead of the left and viceversa what did I do wrong..?? helllllp please.
I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔. I have to see what's going on.
I have a brand new ge stove flattop. The burner wants to boil even on low. How can I fix this?
Infinite switch could be bad. Needs replacing.
Great video. I have a 1956 Frigidaire electric range. Everything is working as I'd expect. We did not that when the oven is on we feel heat coming up through the burner holes. Burners are off, but feel the heat penetrating up. Its enough heat that it would burn you if you were to be baking something for an hour or so. Any ideas to troubleshoot?
I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔.
Sounds like it was the exhaust. It’s usually the back right burner that has the heat coming out from the oven
My stove coil does this and I replaced the switch and it does the same thing. What else could it be?
Hmmm, I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔.
Good job Lex. I totally rebuilt a 1995 Whirlpool kitchen stove just this morning. $247 parts and labor. The stove is now good for another 25 years. LOL. Some homeowner's just can't let go of their old cookstove. I've got 3 more work orders left to do today. My world is a tent house contract maintenance paradise.
Nice! Sounds like you've got a sweet gig there. Thank you so much for watching Tom!
Not.... it’s bad luck keep that stuff up year round. Lmao!! I can only guess why....!! Yeah our front 8” gets used 90% of the time. These kids need to go to class. Damn we’ve been stupid busy!! Keep on grinding Lex!!
Thank you so much for watching Jayson!
My Samsung ne58f9500ss has issues with all of the burners getting way too hot and out of control. Any idea what that might be?
Burner switch may be getting stuck on high. You can try replacing them.
@@LexVance they all started at once out of nowhere. I'll check it the burner switch you suggested. Thanks for the reply. This range was like $1300 on sale so I'd hate to buy a new one.
I have a really old stove top, in drop in, way older than this one and mine is doing the same thing, I don't really want to replace it, is it possible to find new switches for a really old range like mine?
Sure. You can try Marcone or Google as well.
Hello ! Please help ! I don’t understand how to find the right switch ! I have a whirlpool range . I found 3 different numbers ! I have looked and I can’t find the right one !
Model: WFC150M0EB0
Serial: R64325582
W104038O7B
Thank you ❤
The usually have a colored dot on them. I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔.
When these switches fail can the cause the temp to fluctuate from low to max heat over and over when the dial is set on medium? If not is it a bad or wrong element that would cause that? I'm also trying to find out why some elements are made for GE and Hotpoint and some for all other brands.
If the elements look good and there are no breaks or pits on them, I'd say the switch is bad and making the temperature fluctuate. GE and Hotpoint are within the same company. I believe Hotpoint is the lower level model.
🤣🤣xmas all year round🤣 Idol, maybe Santa is just in the closet 🤣
👍😆👍 Thank you so much for watching Jam!
Question? Any good/bad advice about WE Communities LLC. Company I'm talking with.
Hmmm, I've never heard of them. Sorry broseph.
Mine gets hot like it’s on medium when it’s on the lowest setting (literally next to the off switch). Could this be my issue??
Yes it is.
@@LexVance Even if the stove is brand new? I’ve literally just got it put in my apartment a week ago
@@LexVance And also can you tell me in maintenance terms so I can put a work order in and already tell them in the description my issue? It just would help a lot
What wrong when you put 6 inch control burner on 8 inch side
I don't know. I've never tried. 😆 If you try it, let me know what happens.
I need to replace to infinite switches. Both 8" heating element. Will all the infinite switches work on all whirlpool electric stoves? Moved into our new home about 11 years ago and this was a brand new stove.
Click on my link in the video description and search, "Whirlpool 8" stove infinite switch" and then make sure the picture looks like yours. I'm sure you'll find it. 👍 Thank you so much for watching Abel!
Doing work orders at Santa's apartment again!
👍🤣👍I love that Apartment! ⛄ 🎄 🎅 Thank you so much for watching Super Janitor!
All videos should be like this.about the item, not about you. Also no abundant slapping smacking bs .tks.
I like to get right to the point. If it wasn't Christmas in there all year round, I wouldn't have shown it. But I had to drift off subject on this one and show it. 😆 I never do that though in other videos. I get right to the point with no jabbering off topic. Thank you so much for watching Patric!
God loves you all! He has plans to prosper you and not to harm you, so keep trusting in Him, cuz He got you :) stay blessed and safe this summer :)
Thank you so much for watching!
Electric ranges just suck. I have a brand new GE and on high it gets to over 1200 degrees on both of my laser thermometers. Absolutely insane. Unless I’m boiling water, I just end up using my propane Blackstone in the back yard.
Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you so much for watching!
Damb all my switches are ducked then lol
👍😆👍 I hope everything works out for you Lance!
U can smack the switch with a screwdriver handle and useley get them working again.... I have fixed lots like that and only got called back once
Right on. If I worked solo and didn't have to worry about another guy doing my call back, I'd definitely smack it with a screwdriver handle. Thank you so much for watching Bart!
Yeah I understand that.... the other guy all ways tries to throw the other tecks under the buss....
we'd make good neighbours. i'd teach you. but i'd have to charge
Sounds like a plan.
test
Coming through loud and clear.
You just saved me money and possibly blown by wife an extra time 🤣
👍😆👍 Thank you so much for watching Dynamite!
That's not good, Robert Shaw, looks like a bad product.
Thank you so much for watching Tim!
My Maytag started doing this absolutely fucked up whatever I'm cooking since I use cast iron just gets hot even on low temps, going to try this fix
I hope everything works out for you maple sizzurp!
Hope so the stoves only 2 years old! Thanks for the video and response!
Haha I’ve done a lot of these since I came back to Property Management. Good vid lex!
Thank you so much for watching Rosendo!
I just subscribed to this channel like 2 weeks. Then I see this video come into my notifications. It’s crazy because my dads electric counter top stove is doing this exact thing. Now I get to go fix it and look like a handyman in front of my dad.
Nice! 👍😆👍 Easy fix. If you need to buy switches, I left links in the description. Just make sure you search for your brand stove and match the picture. Thank you so much for watching Flowtester!
Why do the switches fail like that? Is it from a defect, debris, or how they're used? Do they all end up having that problem eventually?
Yes, the contactors stop making good contact Thank you so much for watching! they arc and fry.
never got sick of partying. burners get burnt, only real stays here
So true. Thank you so much for watching!
Exactly my problem, thanks!!
You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching!
Do you know anything about Amana brand I am having this problem
I've never worked on that brand.
It’s Christmas up in here! Lmao 😂
👍😆👍
That helped me a lot. Thanks
You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching!
Thanks bro no mo burnt food
Right on Emmanuel! Thank you so much for watching!
I have replaced the switch but still overheating. I changed the coil as well and it does overheating😓.
Hmmm, maybe the mother board? I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔
@@LexVance It used to heat normal on medium but now medium feels high but if I put it on low it goes down. Original switch was 10.0-11.5A 240v and I replaced with a 8.9-11.0A 240v. Does that matter? Thanks
@@masterfox3539 Yeah, I'd go back with what the old one was. A total match.
Thank you
You're welcome Gloria! Thank you so much for watching!
I just replaced one of these switches on our range a few months ago, and it's doing it again. Anything else I should check, or was the replacement switch just bad? Any possibility it's the temperature probe in the burner (glass top range). Thanks!
Check the switch and see if it's black inside from burn. It could be a lemon. I've had that happen. If that's not it then I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔.
@@LexVance Thanks! I'll throw a new switch at the problem and see what happens.
Do you think its more work an harder in the south or up north plumbing an electric wise for work calls . i kinda feel like the plumbing in the south would jus have more work calls
Yep, I agree. Here in the south it's 90+ degrees and humid nine months a out of the year, too.
Thank you for the video Lex. Do you know where I could get controls for a old Thermador stove and oven. Thank you enjoy your week!
