The surface coil element does not heat up at all. The receptacle contacts have burnt out and no longer deliver power to the element.
Burner heats sometimes but cuts out or works unpredictably. Caused by corroded or pitted receptacle contacts making poor electrical contact with the element prongs.
Visible sparks or arcing where the element prongs plug into the receptacle socket, indicating the receptacle has deteriorated and needs immediate replacement.
Discoloration, melting, or burn marks visible around the burner receptacle area, indicating electrical arcing or heat damage to the terminal block.




💡 Pro Tip: How to Diagnose a Failed Element Receptacle
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Burner does not heat up at all, even though the surface element itself appears intact
⚠️ Burner heats intermittently — works sometimes but cuts out unexpectedly during cooking
⚠️ Visible burn marks, pitting, melting, or discoloration on the receptacle block or element prongs
⚠️ Sparking or arcing visible at the point where the element prongs meet the receptacle socket
👨🔧 Technician Note: Always inspect the element prongs at the same time. If the prongs are burnt or corroded, replace BOTH the element and the receptacle together — installing a new receptacle onto burnt prongs will shorten the new part's life significantly. Use ceramic or high-temp wire connectors rather than standard twist-on nuts when making the wire splices.
