The Whirlpool WPW10149355 Surface Element Switch is a genuine OEM replacement part designed to restore precise control over the surface burners on your electric range or cooktop. Supplied by Appliance Kingdom, this original Whirlpool component meets strict manufacturer standards for quality, safety, and performance. The WPW10149355 switch is compatible with a wide range of electric ranges from Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and other Whirlpool-family brands. Always confirm compatibility using your appliance model number before ordering.

Function & Importance

The surface element switch plays a critical role in controlling the temperature of your electric range burner. It regulates the power sent to the heating element, allowing you to adjust heat levels accurately from low simmer to high heat. When the switch functions correctly, it ensures consistent cooking temperatures, prevents overheating, and supports safe operation of the appliance. A faulty burner switch can lead to uneven heating, loss of temperature control, or continuous heating even when the burner is turned off.

Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement

You may need to replace the WPW10149355 range surface element switch if you experience any of the following issues:

  • Burner stays on high regardless of knob position

  • Burner does not heat at all

  • Heat level cannot be adjusted properly

  • Burner turns on without user input

  • Knob feels loose, stiff, or unresponsive

  • Electrical burning smell near the control panel

These symptoms are strong indicators that the electric range burner control switch has failed and should be replaced to avoid safety risks.
