Hotplates come in different diameters and wattages, often on the same cooktop, so this unit replaces only a matching 2100W position. Check the wattage marked on your old hotplate, often on the underside, or confirm 4055917829 against your model's parts list, as compatible models aren't on file.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChef cooktop hotplate not heating\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hotplate element turns electricity into heat through a resistance wire packed inside its sheath. When that wire breaks, the plate stays cold on every setting while the others still work. Partial faults show up as a plate that only heats on high, glows unevenly, or trips the safety switch when turned on, which can mean moisture has got into the element or the sheath has split. If the plate is fine but heat control is erratic, the energy regulator for that position may be the real culprit, so test before buying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055917829\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2100W hotplate element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor Chef electric cooktops and cookers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2100W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging a hotplate element\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the cooker off at the isolating switch or circuit breaker, as electric cooktops and upright cookers are normally hard-wired. Let the plate cool completely. Take a photo of the terminal connections before removing the old element so each lead goes back to the right terminal.
