KitchenAid KICU508S Cooktop Repair
Two quick tests tell us a lot on a KICU508S. First, a magnetic pan sized for the zone, which shows whether the surface can sense cookware. Second, a look at how each zone responds to its knob, which exposes any switch that has stuck.
A zone that ignores a pan gets its sensing and supply tested. A zone that stays cold while its neighbors work gets traced position by position. And a zone that burns at full heat regardless of the dial is shut down at the circuit until the switch is replaced. Glass is examined for chips and cracks every time.
We explain each result in plain words, quote the work in writing, and cover the repair with a 30-day workmanship warranty.
The zone needs a magnetic pan large enough for its sensing area. If a proper pan is still ignored, we test the sensing and supply and replace the failed part.
No. The problem is local to that zone. We test its connection, switch and heating part, and replace only the one that failed. The repair is usually small compared with the cost of a new surface.
Switch off the cooktop breaker and call us. A stuck switch leaves the zone energized, so we replace it after testing the circuit. We also confirm that the dial moves through its full range afterward.
