Viking VIRT5366B 36-Inch Induction Cooktop
The VIRT5366B is a discontinued 36-inch induction rangetop in the 5 Series, with MagneQuick elements, the Power Management Induction System and large 9-inch induction elements. It is one of the widest induction surfaces Viking offered in this series. Leaving the vents beneath the cutout open also matters, since the fan draws its air from there.
A wide induction top has many electronic parts under the glass, and its airflow is the key to long life. We commonly find dust packed into the fan and the vents, which makes the modules run hot and the zones cut out. Connectors can also loosen over the years.
We clean the airflow path, test every zone and read the fan speed. A written price comes before repairs, with a 30-day warranty.
It cools the electronics under the glass. A clogged or weak fan causes zones to shut off, so we clean and test it first. Keeping the vents beneath the cutout clear of storage also keeps the airflow healthy.
A pan that covers the zone heats evenly and gets the most from the coil. A small pan on a large zone may not be detected well.
Yes, but it is a major repair on a discontinued model. We confirm availability and give you a written price before ordering. We would rather inspect the glass closely and tell you honestly whether replacement is needed.
