KitchenAid KECC562G 36-Inch Radiant Cooktop Repair
At 36 inches wide, the KECC562G is a larger electric cooktop with radiant elements beneath ceramic glass, usually set into a long run of counter or an island top. The wider glass means more distance between elements and more places for a spill to land, so we always check the whole surface for chips along with the zone that prompted your call. It is found as KECC562G, KECC562GBL2, KECC562GBT and KECC562GWH.
Early shutoffs come from the limiter under the glass. A zone that is simply dead is traced at its switch and then at its terminal block, and a zone fixed at full heat points to a switch that has stuck closed.
We replace the failed part, test every zone under load, and clean up before we leave. The price is written down first, and a 30-day warranty comes with the work.
A large pot traps heat against the glass, and the limiter under that zone may trip. We test the limiter and the contact between element and glass to see whether the limiter or the contact needs work.
The switches, elements and limiters are the same. Trim and glass finish differ, so we read the rating plate to order exactly the right surface part if the glass itself is damaged.
We measure continuity at that zone's switch, look at the terminal block for burn marks, and then check the element resistance. This sequence finds the failed part without disturbing zones that still work.
