Viking RVEC3365B 36-Inch Electric Cooktop
The RVEC3365B is a current 36-inch electric cooktop in the 3 Series, using QuickCook elements under a glass ceramic top, with metal die-cast knobs for control. At this width it usually anchors a larger counter run.
Wide electric tops carry a lot of current, so we start at the supply: terminal block, connectors, then the element that is misbehaving. Knobs drive switches, and switches wear, so a burner that stays hot after the knob is off deserves a quick visit rather than waiting. Chips along the glass edge tend to spread. We note them while we are there.
Quotes are given in writing before parts are ordered.
Because the unit is a current model, replacement elements and switches are usually easy to obtain, which keeps the repair short.
Turn off the breaker for the cooktop and call us. A stuck switch can leave an element energized. We replace the switch and test that every burner shuts off.
No. It describes how the glass passes heat from the element to the pan. Keep the glass clean for the best contact, and avoid scratches with abrasive pads.
Not necessarily. Positions can differ in size and rating. We match the replacement to the exact position, using the part number on the old element.
