Whirlpool & KitchenAid Range Surface Burner Receptacle Kit Parts — Models & Compatibility

When your Whirlpool or KitchenAid electric range burner stops heating—even though you hear the control click on—the receptacle kit is often the culprit. This 330031 burner receptacle connects your coil element to the range's wiring, and after years of high heat cycles, these terminals corrode or crack. This hub covers compatible models across Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Amana, and Roper ranges that use this specific receptacle design.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

Check your range's model number label—usually inside the oven door frame or on the control panel rear. Models like RF3020XYW0, RF390PXWW1, RF365BXWN1, and RS6700XKW series are confirmed fits. If your burner element looks fine but won't heat, and the receptacle terminals show blackening or melted plastic, you've found your problem. This kit includes the ceramic receptacle block and wire terminals.

About This Replacement Part

The 330031 receptacle kit handles the high amperage draw from surface burners—typically 1500-2500 watts depending on element size. The most common failure: element will not heat despite functioning controls. You'll notice blackened or pitted terminal prongs where the burner element plugs in, or the ceramic block itself cracks from repeated thermal expansion. Whirlpool designed this as a universal fit across their electric coil ranges from the 1990s through mid-2010s, which is why you'll see it compatible with so many model series. KitchenAid's KECS100 series uses the identical component. The part supersedes AP3075808, W10841094, FSP330031, and 5303935058—all the same upgraded design that addresses the original terminal brittleness issue.

Cross-Brand Compatibility

Since Whirlpool Corporation manufactures Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper appliances, this receptacle appears across brands. Kenmore ranges built by Whirlpool (check if your model starts with 790, 791, or 665) use this same part. The RF, RS, FES, FEP, and RC model prefixes all indicate Whirlpool manufacturing, and the KECS prefix marks KitchenAid's electric smoothtop ranges that still use coil burner technology underneath.

When to Replace vs. Clean

If terminals show light oxidation, you might clean them with fine sandpaper and dielectric grease. But if you see melted plastic on the ceramic block, cracked housing, or terminals that no longer grip the element prongs firmly, replacement isn't optional—it's a safety requirement. Loose connections create arcing, which generates even more heat and can damage your element or wiring harness.
