Thanks for the question.

This is the burner for your stove, you would need a volt meter to check the burners to see if thats the problem, it could also be the switches causing that problem.

If you set the switch to a medium heat do hey work ok.

Customer replied 951 days and 4 hours ago.

it generally does not get past low heat and at times it will get to the appropriate setting...ie medium or high

Then that would be the switches causing that problem and not the elements.appliance doctor40422.5407341435

The switches can be bought at any appliance parts store near you or from Sears.

Customer replied 951 days and 4 hours ago.

so, is it the switches or burners? how would i check the burners...with the volt meter...or am i just checking for continuity?

Expert:  appliance doctor replied 951 days and 4 hours ago.

It is the switches thats causing the problem, just by what the symptoms are it has to be the switches so theres no testing required.If it was the elements you wouldn't get any heat from them.

Customer replied 951 days and 4 hours ago.

do you have a part number...if not that is fine.

thanks for the input..

Expert:  appliance doctor replied 951 days and 4 hours ago.

I see, if you take the switches to an appliance parts store they will sell you one that will fit and work in your unit.
