Nov 29, 2011 - The temperature controls on the two front rings on my Simpson Polaris kitchen stove do not work.i.e.the elements are on full all the time ... 1 answer · Top answer: Hi Graham and thank you for your question, The reason the hotplates are r
If the rest of the hotplate elements are working correctly and you are performing the same tests with all of them then you have a problem. We know that the hotplate works. When hotplates are faulty they don't turn on and off, they just don't work. This would generally be a hotplate controller problem. It sounds as if the controller is faulty and requires replacing. If you are handy you can switch the suspect hotplate controller with a good one and see what happens. This will confirm our suspicions.
I have a T172 model which also has a dual circuit hotplate.
In the control area you should find a dual circuit control pad - this has two concentric circles on it. With the hob switched on, pressing this button will chnage the mode of the dual circuit hot plate bewteen:
1. Just the inner part
2. Both the inner and outer together.
When the hob is switched off using the Standby control pad, it remembers which mode was selected and will therefore work the same next time it is switched on. However, it is worth noteing that when the mains power to the hob is interuppted, either by an isolator switch/breaker, or a power cut, the hob defaults back to just the inner ring mode.
hi my name is mark, yes most manual gas valves can be disassembled and lubed. you will need gas valve grease. remember a little goes a long way and shut off the gas to the unit before disassembly.
Hotplate heating up when regulator/selector switched off. Hi ,this is gil1714 in Scotland. Two possibilities on this one, 1) the regulator is faulty:- replace 2) if the control circuit (regulator) is wired on the neutral side the hotplate may be leaking current to earth, thereby completing the circuit. This would only occur on a supply that was not protected by an RCD. If so replace hotplate. Hope this is useful,
I need more information. What kind of controls? A knob you turn or computer touch controls? If it is a knob it is most likely the switch is bad. THese cost around $25 each. The control switch controls the heat by pulsing the element on and off . High is constantly on, lowest setting is around 5% on. This is usually an easy repair. THe switches have 4 - 6 wires. 2 marked L 1 and L2 (Usually black and Red) Two terminals marked Load 1 and Load 1 , Maybe a neutral and a pilot light terminal. Do not mix up the L1 and L2. The load terminals (going to burners) really don't matter. They may even be the same color. THe L1 & L2 terminals must be the same on all 4 switches. The switch you get as a replacement may look different from the original. As long as you ordered by model and serial # they will fit.
