KitchenAid KECC605B Cooktop Repair Appointment
The indicator light on a KECC605B should go out once the surface is cool. When it stays on for hours, the circuit behind it has stuck, and we confirm the glass temperature before we open anything. The KECC605BSS is the version we see.
Downdraft versions bring two additional checks: the blower motor and the damper. A motor that spins slowly or a damper that binds leaves cooking vapor in the room. We clean and test, and replace only the part that proves weak.
Gas configurations get a valve test at the lowest setting, since a flame that cannot survive a simmer is a valve problem. If you ever smell gas, leave the house and call the gas utility from outside. We also look over the wiring under the cooktop. Quotes are written before work, with a 30-day warranty on the repair.
Treat it as real until proven otherwise. Wait until the glass is cool to the touch, then call us. We test the indicator circuit separately from the surface temperature.
We open the vent, move the damper by hand to feel for binding, and run the motor to watch it open. A damper that does not move fully starves the blower of air.
We adapt to your complaint, but we always glance at wiring and terminals when the cooktop is open. Spotting a darkened lug early costs far less than repairing a burnt connection.
