GE Range Infinite Switch (WB24T10029)

The GE Range Infinite Switch controls the power level sent to a surface burner element on your electric range. It works by cycling the burner on and off rapidly at varying rates, allowing you to set heat anywhere from low simmer to high, rather than just fixed settings. This gives you precise, continuous temperature control while cooking.

The GE Range Infinite Switch can fail from heat exposure over time, internal contact wear, or damage caused by boilovers and spills that work their way into the switch body. When the contacts inside the switch burn out or stick, the burner may stop responding to the control knob or behave erratically, making it difficult or unsafe to cook.

These symptoms can help you decide if the infinite switch is the source of your problem:

- Burner stays on high regardless of the knob position

- Burner will not heat up at any setting

- Burner only works at one heat level and will not adjust

- Knob turns freely but the burner does not respond

- Burner cycles on and off too frequently or unevenly

- Visible burn marks, melting, or a burning smell near the control panel
