New surface element control switches
You can put Robertshaw infinite switch kits in the stove if you’d like, GE also sells a new, infinite switch. They’ve gotten really crappy, however.
Even in daily use, the original switches should be highly reliable. The only advantage to the infinite switches is you would have some settings in between the different settings. The other advantage would also be that the entire element would be used on any heat setting not just one half or the other, etc. I have a GE cooktop from 1965 in my weekend house that has pushbutton heat controls with just five settings per element, and I’ve always found it delightful to cook on and we do a lot of cooking.

Hans gave you a valid source for the Hotpoint part. Talk about leading a horse to water and not being able to make it drink. This is like when we were trying to explain why your GE clothes dryer did not heat with oil; you don't seem to read. | ||

Hi Chris , the ones I am thinking of do not look like the ones in the link GE did sell ones that look like the ones in the link here for a while they seem to work but they were pretty cheap. I was not impressed with them.
It seems that GE is no longer selling that one here they’ve gone back to one that looks more like the older square Robert Shaw design. John | ||
