Replacing the Dial on a KitchenAid Superba Stove

KitchenAid Superba ranges have several infinite switches, commonly referred to as "dials," which control the burners on the stove top. Each burner has its own infinite switch that controls the level of heat produced by the burner. After regular use of the stove, one of the infinite switches may become unresponsive, preventing you from controlling the burner. Often, this happens when the burner is on, and it prevents you from turning off the burner. To repair the range, replace the faulty infinite switch.
