A hotplate of that size requires a designated plug. It must be wired correctly with the right wire size to handle 15 amp. If the wiring is sloppy or is just one of 12 plugs and or lighting on that circuit it will trip the breaker if it is working flawlessly. Also never use an extension cord with it.
I haven't heard of this problem before. If you do press down and the hotplate starts to work we know that the hotplates are okay. The only thing this could be is an internal problem inside the hotplate controller, possibly with the contacts. The controllers will need replacing.
Most common fault is the hotplate element is faulty and requires replacement followed by a burnt off terminal at the hotplate terminal followed by a faulty control switch.
hi...first thing to do is canvas the price of the ceramic glass top,coz the price of the glass is half or more compare to the new one..do u think if u buy a glass only it is reasonable or waste ur money?then dont try to fix it by it ur self,coz the glass u buy is no warranty for wrong instalation.call an expert technician to do it to get an assurance for the warranty for installation.
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.
Remove hotplate and oven control knobs. Under the 2nd and 5th knobs is an extra screw which holds on the front cover. Unscrew these and free the cover then access is gained to the screws (2 on each edge) which removes the plate to which the regulators are fixed.Remove the faulty regulator by unscrewing it from the plate,(2 screws) It is an easy job then to install the new part taking care to put the correct wires on the correct terminals. Reassemble, job done!
the sparking is one of the switches under the knobs shorted you may be able to open the top and take a switch off 1 at a time and you can figure out what one is shorted.or you can just change all of them. to stop this you may be able to just unplug the cooktop from under the top.if you unplug the cooktop you should be able to light the burners with a match.
