Whirlpool w11730306 Infinite Switch

Product Description

The Whirlpool w11730306 is an infinite switch designed to control surface burner heat output on electric ranges and cooktops. Infinite switches regulate power to the heating element by cycling the circuit on and off at variable rates, allowing the user to dial in precise heat levels across a continuous range rather than fixed steps. This OEM-replacement component is installed by appliance service technicians during burner control failures where the existing switch no longer holds a setting, burns out, or fails to cycle correctly.

The w11730306 is suited for residential electric range and cooktop applications where the original infinite switch has reached end of service life. It is a direct OEM replacement part sourced from Whirlpool, making it appropriate for service calls on Whirlpool-brand electric cooking appliances. Installation is completed at the range control panel and requires basic appliance service tools.
