General Electric wb24x47193 Infinite Switch Control

Product Description

The General Electric wb24x47193 is an infinite switch control designed for electric cooking appliances. It regulates surface burner heat output by cycling power on and off at variable intervals, allowing the user to dial in precise temperature levels from low simmer to high heat. This type of switch is a direct-replacement component typically installed by appliance service technicians during a burner control failure or knob-response issue. The wb24x47193 fits within the control panel assembly and connects to the surface element circuit.

This infinite switch is suited for residential electric ranges and cooktops that use resistance-based surface heating elements. It is typically found in freestanding ranges, slide-in ranges, and drop-in cooktop configurations where a rotary knob controls individual burner output. Service technicians replace this component when the original switch fails to hold a set heat level, produces erratic burner behavior, or does not respond to the control knob.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance service technician. Disconnect power to the range or cooktop at the circuit breaker before beginning any disassembly. Infinite switches are connected to line-voltage circuits and must be handled in accordance with local electrical codes. Note the original wiring arrangement before removing the failed switch, as terminal positions vary by configuration.
