Amana Electric stove burner not working
If your Amana electric stove burner is not working, the problem may be the surface element switch, which sends voltage to the burner. If another burner uses the same-size element, switch the elements to test it. If the problem follows the switch, replace the surface element switch. When two or more burners stop working at the same time, a failed surface element board or its relays may be preventing power from reaching the burners. An incoming power problem can also cause an electric stove burner not working, since an electric range needs about 220 volts AC. Test the outlet with a multimeter, or have a qualified electrician check it. For one burner, inspect the radiant surface element, make sure it is fully seated in the socket, and test it for continuity. A damaged or open element needs replacement. These checks apply whether you have a glass top stove burner not working or a coil burner not working. Enter your Amana range model number to find the exact replacement surface element switch, board, radiant surface element, or radiant element for your stove.

02 - Amana Range/Stove/Oven Surface Element Switch
The surface element switch sends voltage to the surface element coil. If the switch is defective, the surface element will not work. If there is another element of the same size on the stove, try switching the elements. If the surface element still doesn’t work, the surface element switch is likely defective. The surface element switch cannot be tested or repaired—if you suspect the switch is defective, replace it.

03 - Amana Range/Stove/Oven Surface Element Board
The surface element board has relays that regulate the power supply to the burners. If one or more of the relays fails, the surface element won’t work. If two or more burners fail at the same time, this indicates that the surface element board is likely at fault. If only one surface element won’t work, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the surface element has continuity, the surface element board might be defective.

04 - Incoming Power Problem
It is possible that the range is not receiving proper voltage. Electric ranges require 220 volts of alternating current. If the range is receiving significantly less voltage, the surface element won’t work. To determine if the electrical outlet has sufficient voltage, use a multimeter to test the incoming power at the wall socket.

05 - Amana Range/Stove/Oven Coil Surface Element
First, make sure that the element is pushed all the way into the socket. Second, inspect the surface element for damage. If the element appears to be damaged, replace it. Lastly, use a multimeter to test the surface element for continuity. If the surface element does not have continuity, replace it.

06 - Amana Range/Stove/Oven Radiant Surface Element
The most common cause when the surface element won't work is the radiant surface element itself. The radiant surface element - or heating element - can burn out similar to a light bulb. If the surface element won't work and it doesn't have continuity, it will need to be replaced. The radiant surface element is not repairable.
