I would like a circuit diagram for a Kleenmaid Cooktop Ch14 and an explanation of how the heat sensor under the glass top works weter it switches the active or otherwise. I have a dual element which now only the centre element heats when I turn the control knob either way. I have just fitted a new thermostat, originally the outer element was on all the time so I assumed that the contact in the thermostat was welded closed. The thermostat I fitted was not the same as the one I removed so am not totally sure of connections but was suppplied to me as a replacement it is an Invensys M82314.

Hi, I too have had a problem with the dual element on the Kleenmaid CH14. Likewise I was given an Invensys M82314 which as you will know is not configured in the same way. However, I assume that what they call"phase" is the active connection, the neutral is marked and are side by side like the old one, pilot is idicated and is the wire that bridges together with the other switches....you are only left with two...."load1" and "load2" whichever way around I apply those I can only get my inside burner to run. I am baffled !! My old switch operates both burners but keeps cutting in and out.

- OK...I'm back with good news. I have obtained a Kleenmaid circuit diagram and now understand why the small element is the only one to turn on. The original switch/regulator CK 015C (now unobtainable) is configured in parallel and the replacement that you have is configured in series. The Invensys switches active on load1 and load 2. To overcome this you can reverse two of the connections to the ring itself. Leave the blue/white lead where it is and reverse the other two . This will put a Neutral to the centre pin and the active to the closest pin to the residual heat sensor.
I have just done this on mine and it works perfectly. I hope this will help you.
