The EW30IC60SS protects itself when a pan boils dry: the zone shuts down to keep the glass and coil from overheating. Owners sometimes think the zone has failed when it only needs time to cool. On an EW30IC60SS, a grinding fan under the glass is replaced early, because the induction electronics rely on it to […]

The EW30GC60IS lights burners with a spark that ignites the gas as it flows. A burner that lights late with a small pop usually has an igniter that is dirty or positioned too far from the ports. Revisions IS1 and IS2 of the EW30GC60IS differ in some parts, so we read the label before ordering.

The EW30GC60PS was built in many revisions, which is a sign of how long it stayed in production. Parts are ordered by the exact revision on the label, because valves and switches changed along the way. Spills around the knobs of an EW30GC60PS can reach the spark switches and leave igniters clicking; drying usually resolves […]

The EW36GC55PS is the 36-inch P-generation gas cooktop that followed the EW36GC55GS. Its large center burner is the one most exposed to boil-overs, and clogged ports on it are a common cause of poor lighting. Any gas smell from an EW36GC55PS gets a leak test at the valves and fittings before it is used again.

The EI24EC15KS fits small kitchens and condos where a 30-inch cooktop will not. Replacing it means finding another 24-inch unit, so repairing an element or switch is usually the better choice. Cracks at the edge of an EI24EC15KS often start where the glass meets the counter if the cutout was tight. The glass is checked […]

The EI24GC15KS packs four burners into 24 inches, so pans often overhang the knobs and spills reach the controls. Clicking igniters after a boil-over are common and often clear once dry. A weak flame on an EI24GC15KS burner usually comes from clogged ports; the orifice under the burner is checked if cleaning does not help.

The EI30IC60LS is an induction cooktop from the IQ line. Its touch controls can refuse input if a wet cloth or pan sits on them, and the cooktop may beep and shut off as a safety measure. If one zone on an EI30IC60LS stops detecting pans that work elsewhere, the coil or its generator board […]

The EI36IC60LS shares power between zones, so running two paired zones on high lowers one automatically. Owners sometimes read this as a failing zone; it is normal behavior. A cracked top on an EI36IC60LS should not be used, since liquid can reach the electronics underneath.

The EW30GC55PS is a later build of the 30-inch EW gas cooktop. Its black PB version shows rust spots on enamel caps sooner than stainless, and new caps are an inexpensive fix. When no burner on an EW30GC55PS sparks, we test the spark module; when one burner is silent, its igniter.

The ECCG3672AS is one of Electrolux’s newer 36-inch gas cooktops. A burner that sparks but does not light is checked for a blocked orifice or port before the valve. Grates on the ECCG3672AS must sit squarely on their rubber feet; if one rocks, pans sit unevenly and can tip.
