On the back of the stove are 2 blower fans just under the cooktop. They are cooling fans to keep the controls from overheating. They are a long tube type fan and are left and right side. My guess is one or both are not coming on. They are controlled by a round disk temp control also under the cooktop. At a preset temp these fans should come on and keep all the control area cool enough to stop any damage. The fans need tested and maybe the temp control needs replaced.

I would check the gas pressure at the meter reg .It sounds like you are saying too much gas to burners

Will any of these work?

I would try replacing switch for that burner. But it also could be a defective burner.

What are you using to clean the stove? Only cleaners made for ceran type tops should be used according to directions. Do not use enamel coated pans or glass pans on your cooktop.If you have a boil over, turn off the burner and change to a different burner immediately. Clean up the spill completely before cooking on that burner again. Use a flat edge razor to clean tough residue. Your cooktop will look new for years to come, even with heavy use.

As far as the scratch, don't use abrasive cleaners on the top and only use pots and pans with flat bottoms. If you do use cast iron pans, never scoot them around on the top.

You may have melted the bottom of the pan you were using into the glass. Copper bottom and alum pans sholdnot be used at high temps on a glass top. (never use porclin or glass pots)High temps can etch(mark or discolor) the glass.

first try putting pans on top and see what they do you should not operate these type of eyes with nothing on them as you will burn out the sensors in the eyes if nothing is there to reflect the heat back to them if it does the same thing with pans on them then you will have to replace the elements

You MUST use flat bottom pans on three of the four burners, the back right burner is the multi-pan burner and accepts any type pan. You'll notice the other burners have a circle in the center, that is the thermostat that reads the temp of the pan, that burner type needs the flat bottom pan to work correctly. The multi-pan has no thermostat and it will boil water in any pan.

Good luck
