Many homeowners choose to outfit their spaces with an electric cooktop, and while these models offer the steady and consistent heat you need, they can also create sparks that bring danger into your home. An electric cooktop that sparks is a relatively uncommon occurrence, but all it takes is one stray spark to ignite a kitchen fire. This electric cooktop repair problem is one you’ll want to resolve immediately. In most cases problems with sparks in Electrolux EW30EC55GS could be in - broken electric coils. It is simply to do. All you need is follow our step-by-step guide.
- Electric ranges typically have 2 house fuses or a double breaker, one for each 120-volt leg of the 240-volt power. To prevent electrical shock and damage to the control board, remove both fuses or shut off both breakers (if a clip connects the double breakers, shutting off one should shut off both).
- The prongs of the coil element are pushed into the terminal block receptacle that's under the cooktop. Tilt the coil element up slightly and then pull it straight out of the receptacle.
- Position the new coil surface element in front of the receptacle and push it in until it properly seats in the receptacle. Press the new element down on top of the drip pan.
- Turn on the electric power to the cooktop.
Now it must work without sparks. If this doesn't work, there could be a defective part that requires a replacement, and you may need to consult a professional.
