I imagine the burner controls would need to be reconfigured, if that's even possible. I would also be concerned over whether new replacement burners would even fit (or look) right.
My mom's 1949 Westinghouse electric stove was 60 years old when she passed away, only one burner ever needed to be replaced, and it failed without any fanfare. Other than that, only the occasional loose or broken wire had to be re-fastened to a connecting block, mainly on the one burner that got used the most.
I think you can simply repair the burner connection and leave things be, presuming the cause of the sparking didn't blow out the element. |
