Replace a Thermostat Switch for Hamilton Beach Toaster

Hello, All

I have a Hamilton Beach Toaster, model# 31507R. The thermostat switch (the temperature control knob) went bad, but Hamilton does not sale this part. I have all the info from the part I removed, but not sure where I can find a replacement or something similar that will work. Google search keeps bringing up links for China companies, but they require a minimum purchase of 2000+ units. I hope someone here may have a suggestion or know of a similar part that would suffice.

I have a picture, and below are the details I deciphered from the part itself if it helps.

Spark Ignition Switch and Harness

I have a rental unit and the tag is off the oven and we dont know the brand or the model... The oven will not light...My existing switch has 5 switches in the harness one is a touch smaller and has a seperate wire coming off of it and then the 2 connectors coming off the main harness....so I need a harness/switch with a 3 connection harness...All I can find to order is a 2 connection harness...

Thanks in advance for your help...

FIXED LRE3083ST LG electric range - stove top burners turn on randomly

My stove top has decided to assert its independence. When I turn on one burner, it may come on or the burner in front of or behind it may turn on, or they may both come on. This happens with both sides of the range, but does not cross sides. I have looked up fixes and it seems like it could be the infinite switches, but this is a digital clock, so no knobs...the back of the range looks really different from the version with the knobs. Plus, both sides go bad, that sounds weird. :ghost: Any suggestions about how to fix this? I am desperate as I have had to break out my single burner camping stove to boil water for coffee. :excitement:

Thank you for any help,

Sarah

AB80KT-1 Wolf stove top igniter issue

This Wolf stovetop looks to work like any other electronic ignition. A couple of notes;
1)the complaint is that the electrodes continue to spark (the ones without gas turned on) after the gas ignites on one burner
2) 1 of the electrodes sti;ll sparks but is partially broken. (the porcelain)
3) I cleaned (rubbing alcohol) all electrodes and gas plates thoroughly and this improved the situation, but still an issue with sparking after ignition
4) sometimes if all burners on, you put a pan on one burner...sparking starts up again

is there an easy fix? replace all electrodes (they were dirty and not very well maintained


thank you in advance for your reply
