Range Burner Controls Repair

11 years ago

Hi.

We have a Kenmore 96112 glass-top range that is under 10 years old.

A couple of the burners are acting funny. Instead of cycling on an off at a rate appropriate for the temperature setting, they instead need the controls set a lot higher than previously. For instance, for one of the burners to operate on a medium-low temperature, the control has to be set almost all the way up. Another burner, even when on high, still cycles on and off, and never gets a pot to full heat.

Is this likely a problem with the control, or with a sensor in the burner itself?

Anyone who has had a similar experience that can share ideas would be very helpful.

I am planning to repair this myself if it's straightforward.

Thanks,

David
