Regarding Minor stove stop repair - looking for repair technician in Hamilton?
I have a Samsung glass-top electric range (model NE63T8111SS/AC, manufactured in 2020).
The front-left burner recently developed an issue where it only operates at MAX heat. No matter where the knob is set, if the burner is turned on it goes straight to high.
A local appliance repair company diagnosed it and quoted:
$135 diagnostic/call-out fee
$40 labour
$120–180 for the replacement part
Total would be roughly $300–355 CAD plus tax. (Considering I can buy new at 1000, it just seems nuts to repair this one issued for almost 400,)
For those who have repaired this issue before,
Is this a reasonable DIY repair for someone moderately handy, or is it better left to a technician?
I did try to repair it after watching YouTube videos but the stove top we have the front plate doesn’t seem to just pull out and is securely attached to the full panel so it’s quite difficult for me
To figure out what part it is to remove and reattach.
Anyone have recommendations or know of anyone that repairs something like this in the Hamilton area?
