Repaired a 5 gas burner thermadore cooktop! Both the simmer burners out!
The potentiometers and simmer control were No longer available!
I found a simmer control in my old stock and 1 simmer potentiometer same shaft size but different mounting bracket. The rear potentiometer was burned up so I took the back off it and put it on the one I had. I installed the simmer control. Left the original potentiometer on the center front simmer burner valve and put the potentiometer I put the old bracket on to the rear center simmer valve and Wallah both burners worked like the a charm! Happy Happy customers. They said I had Perseverance and that’s what it took to go back several times to their home and the warehouse in search of the right parts and give me time to think the repair through to the final solution!
