Samsung Stove Burner Stays on High Heat Only (Electric Range)

Samsung DG44-01002A Energy Regulator used in this video - amzn.to/3D1xkiZ

[@katrinagilbert218]

Thank you so much. The repairman quoted me $600 to fix this same problem, and I had decided I would just buy a new stove for that price. With your help, I was able to fix it for $90. It was awesome to save the money, but also empowering to discover I could do it myself!!

[@Phone-sh7jg]

This should be a recall and SAMSUNG should repair it for free. Mine does the same thing!

[@Nclght]

It's not a Samsung thing. It's one of the most common repairs with stovetops. This could have easily been a Whirlpool or GE. There are hundreds of youtube videos showing such reoairs. The biggest culprit I've found is that people typically use the same burner over and over. To get longer life....spread the love...rotate the crops...or use whatever analogy you like to remind yourself to use different burners when possible.

[@johnd5542]

Id have to respectfully disagree. Just because this is a well known issue with all the brands, doesnt mean its not an issue with Samsung as an individual. That is the company selling the product I purchased. They made or sourced the components for their product, so they are accountable. This is a well known issue, historically speaking. They should do better, and supply units that are more reliable. Or offer a reasonable remedy.

Mine does this to.

[@chrismonroe4855]

Same issue on both double burners. Fixed left one by removing connectors and applying contact cleaner. Then the right burner started acting up and the cleaning fix didn't work. This started with a five-year old range, which says a lot about Samsung ranges. The parts aren't cheap either.

[@saifzaman3978]

Thank you so much for posting this video...I replaced the infinite switches on my samsung electric range, and lo and behold it worked...saved me buying a new one. Thank you so much.

Dave I just found your channel. I missed this video by a month. I bought a new stove because of this same problem. I could of saved $1200.00. 😀 Definitely saving your channel for future home repairs. Keep on posting your great videos. We appreciate you.

I miss your apartment series. Seeing you do those work orders was oddly satisfying.

I miss making them- may return one day gotta lay low for awhile though

I have this problem w my stove. Figured it would be a quick fix. Thanks for making the video. Appreciate it.

[@ApartmentMaintenancePro]

Let us know how it turns out!

[@Floridaman457]

Thank you for the info. For some people it may be better to just replace one wire at a time after you screw the new switch into place . Sometimes you get a bad angle when taking a photo and a couple wires are not seen .

[@mrlsms]

Keen point!

[@executiveassistantplaybook]

This was the exact fix I needed for my stove. Thank you!!

[@input3445]

I followed his instructions and replaced the switch in about 10 minutes. I have never done this before. Do exactly as he says and it will be simple. It took longer to clean behind and find the part to order than actually replace it.

[@jacquelynabrams1219]

Will this fix both front burners or just the one?

[@input3445]

@@jacquelynabrams1219 I replaced the part for my double burner in front, so it fixed it. Each burner has its' own switch, so if multiple burners are out, you will have to replace each one separately.

[@bplmanju18]

Amazing and simple way of fixing the BIG problem...just awesome !!!

[@yamanpreet350]

The video is really helpful. Replacing the part helped me save a lot of money. I was out of warranty and didn’t wanted to buy a new stove. Thanks for sharing the video. It’s really helpful. I have a Samsung stove. Though my part number was different.

[@Katbaloo2022]

Thank you sooo much. It's working now!😃 I got the right part for my GE and following your instructions I was able to fix my front burners.

[@e.michelleblair5113]

Thank you! Bless you! This saved us from buying a new stove.

[@carotech1973]

Thank you ! Very helpful video. I was quoted $300 to fix this; that''s about 50% of the cost of the entire unit ...

[@pokermud]

Thanks I thought it could be the relay in the switch and you confirmed it. Samsung was no help, they wanted me to call a service man. 😅

[@gabylulu16]

I'm so happy i found this now both my front burners are overheating. Looking to order the parts today

[@MsBigboss123]

I’m in this situation now and don’t understand how this happens. it’s started with just 1 burner and now up 2. I really appreciate this video, ill be applying this fix. thank you.

[@Jackmerius_Tacktheritrix5733]

Good video. I’d like to add that you should turn off the circuit breaker before unplugging the oven. I learned this the hard way. Also, the replacement part came with a completely different set of connections, so I had to translate it so take multiple photos from different angles as some wires might cover up the view of another. There’s also two of these on my oven so got to buy another.

[@sylvainmasson8629]

You don't have to take a picture of the wire . Juste unscrew the old one and install the new one and unplug each wire at a time in plug it back on the new one;)

[@kylebigk1]

Thanks for the video man! Found my part and know how to fix it quick now!

[@gtawally]

Glad I saw this! The first video I saw was how to replace the burner, was gonna buy that Glad I scrolled down for the switch fix ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@URTaiofChi]

Thanks. Same thing for the right side replacement. I need to tape one of the missing wire connection (at the left bottom corner) for the OEM part. Works well :)

[@elvis3810]

I just bought a house and burned food all weekend on the Samsung that seller left behind. Samsung Q&A gives you no info. I was about to bust out my credit card to buy a new stove! Thanks for this info I have a home warranty and I'll call someone to do it. If they don't know how I'll point them at this!!

[@divyak1111]

I am in the exact situation! I have no idea how the sellers cooked in this

[@hr1meg]

Our Samsung FE-R300SX just started doing the very same thing now on the two front burners. You had to open the broiler door to get to the model number. Curious to see our range was manufactured in Thailand on March 2012. We purchased it in April 2012. I wonder if these equivalent ranges are now all made in China. Anyways, thanks to your video we can quick fix the problem. Thanks!

[@danieladroguett5511]

Thank you!!! I am going to try it

[@patriciadegaston4895]

Thanks for this video. I will never buy another Samsung piece of garbage. My house came with Samsung and I’ve had to replace everything but the stove so far. I’m looking forward to a matching Kitchenaid stove but got a few other expenses that I was hoping to knock out before this. Their war with is nonexistent and they are so poorly made.

[@ktall6749]

Why would a simple switch cost $90 considering the total cost of the stove?

[@Sparky-ww5re]

I currently have a gas range in the home I'm renting so this obviously doesn't apply to my living situation at the moment but I've always wondered, are the infinite switches interchangeable between the glass radiant cooktops and the older style coil cooktops as long as the number of elements (single size, 6/9, 6/9/12 inch) and wattage match or are very close? In case my next house comes with an electric range.

[@michaelfaurot5991]

Always the front right.

[@out2burn]

It’s this covered under warranty??

[@daisukiyamamoto3904]

My Kenmore oven came on automatically, very dangerous. Is it because the mother board went bad? The oven has an electronic control board.

[@BenJohnston-f5i]

Thank you. Now I know how to fix mine. All 4 burners do the same. This fixed all of them?

[@ApartmentMaintenancePro]

No, each infinite switch to each burner, on this model in this video I have no idea which stove you have

Thanks!

[@MS-wm7kc]

[@Bronco93]

Same type of switch for all 4 burners. Or each switch is different?

[@Ydoit]

Wouldn’t it be better if you reconnect the all wires before you screw it back?

[@ManuelGarcia-xk4kp]

So each knob has his own.. mine were two burners doing that so I would need to buy those 2 diffrent control switches right

[@ApartmentMaintenancePro]

On this model yes. It was the same thing that happened to mine I had to replace two of them.

[@schubybaby]

I followed these directions and when I plug the cooktop back in the “cooktop on” light comes on and the burners I replaced are getting warm without me turning them on. Any thoughts?

[@ApartmentMaintenancePro]

Sounds like something is mis-wired. Verify everything is hooked up correctly via your models wiring diagram

[@MeganMathis-v9i]

Does that switch control the front and back burners? Both my front and back burner on the right side of the stove are having this issue.

[@vadimk8739]

I was trying to replace a burner regulator on my Samsung (model NE59M4320SS) and gave up as I was unable to pull out one of the Molex connectors from the old regulator (the white connector with the double red wire). It just wouldn't come out no matter how hard I pulled so eventually I just stopped as I was afraid to damage the connector. All the other wires came out pretty easily. Just for comparison, I also tried to pull out that same connector from the other fast boil burner regulator and it would not come out either. I am thinking it must be designed this way and there is probably some kind of an inside lock or something, but I just cannot figure it out. Any advice?

[@leroybertsch6391]

I have this same issue with both dual burners on my stove, it doesn't do all of the time but I just can't trust it. Is it the same part for both dual burners on the Samsung model NE59J7630SS

Thank you!

[@andrewyurick7758]

Are the switches universal for samsungs?

[@albertobrenner6498]

Is That energy regulator related to all 4 burners???? Or need one of those for each burner ???

[@ApartmentMaintenancePro]

Each burner

[@TheLindseyRPoole]

I tried this fix for our Samsung. Instructions are very easy and we bought the infinite switch based on the model number but seems like the stove is still having the same issue. Any ideas what else could be the problem after replacing the infinite power switch?

[@ApartmentMaintenancePro]

double check you replaced the right switch for the burner, if so send the switch back, the switch directly controls the voltage to the burner so there's really not another option

[@kirkgaray2516]

How can i make sure it’s the infinite switch?

[@GravityDAD]

If we are still within one year from purchase does the service to repair this cost nothing from Samsung anyone know?

[@relaxationstation5273]

After I replaced the part only the inner coil heats up, but the temperature is correct.

[@rodcarnochan8452]

I have the same problem with all four elements so with this one part fix all four elements, could you let me know Dave please ?? Thank you.

[@everythinghomerepair1747]

I wouldn’t be surprised if the new switch you bought is also defective. They are very cheaply made parts. Barring that there may be a broken temperature limiter under the range top.
