4055563086 Genuine Ceramic Cooktop Element 215mm 2000W EGO for Electrolux Group Ceramic Hobs, Radiant Hotplate

Part 4055563086 is a genuine 2000W element for an Electrolux group ceramic cooktop, 215mm in diameter and made by EGO. It sits under the glass and heats one cooking zone. If a zone stays cold, glows only partly or trips the power, the element underneath is a likely cause. Check the label on your old element, or your parts list, shows 4055563086 before ordering.

Ceramic cooktop zone not heating?

Ceramic cooktops use radiant elements mounted under the glass. Each has a coiled heating ribbon set into an insulated base, and many include a limiter that stops the glass overheating. When an element fails, the zone may stay dark and cold, heat slowly, glow in only one section, or trip the safety switch when turned on. The control switch for that zone can cause similar faults, so it is worth having the element tested before replacing it. Cracked glass needs attention first, as it is unsafe to use.

Replacing a ceramic element

Ceramic cooktops are hard-wired, so isolate power at the circuit breaker and have a licensed electrician fit the element. The cooktop usually lifts out of the bench, and the glass is separated from the base to reach the element. Note the wiring before disconnecting it, check the new element sits flat against the glass, and test each zone once reassembled.
