Stove hotplate not heating or cracked?

A solid hotplate is a flat metal plate with a heating coil sealed inside, wired to the control switch below the cooktop. Hotplates burn out after years of use, and the giveaways are a plate that stays cold on every setting, heats only partly, or trips the safety switch when turned on. Cracks across the surface or a burnt smell from underneath also point to a failing element. Check that the control switch and wiring are sound before replacing the plate, as a faulty switch can cause the same no heat fault.

Fitting a solid hotplate safely

Stoves and cooktops are usually hard-wired, so this job should be done by a licensed electrician. Isolate the circuit at the switchboard first. Confirm the old plate is also a 200mm low profile type, as hotplates come in different sizes and heights. Label the wires before disconnecting them, fit the new plate so it sits flat and level in its trim ring, then test it on each setting.

Questions about this part

Is low profile different from a standard hotplate?

Yes. Low profile hotplates are slimmer than standard plates, and the two are not always interchangeable in the same trim. Check your old plate, its part number or your model against this listing before ordering.
