When any moisture gets in tot he controls (since they are in front of the range - bad design) then I get a popping sound and smoke. I turn if off at the breaker and eventually I can turn it back on and use it. But now the front right burner doesn't work. How can I open the glass top and what should I look for? If I do fix it I want to add a new bead of caulk in between the controls and the stove top to prevent this from happening again! if anyone else has this problem or can advise me on my next steps would be appreciated! thank you!
If you need to ask what to look for, you should not be attempting this repair.

Shut the breaker off! These are the exact symptoms that a tenant of ours reported for their range. I went to check the range and found that one of the power wires on the terminal block in the back of the range was burning itself up. It had actually started a small wire fire. You need to pull the range out of it's hole and unplug it. Remove the panel in the back above where the cable goes into the range. Examine the power wires and terminal block carefully, because I bet you'll find one of the wires is burning up and needs to be repaired. Please write back and let know what you find.

SOURCE: Need advice on Kenmore electric range
turning frot burner on sparked and now all 4 burners don't work any more
SOURCE: kenmore glass top range left front large burner out
check the burner socket, it is likely that contact is being lost where the burner connects to the hardwired portion of the system (the socket). It is not unusual for the socket to "burn up" when there is a poor connection to the burner resulting in the burner being replaced and the new burner not working or working intermittently.
Please take the time to rate this solution

there are two tests to chk which is bad,wether it is the control switch or the elemnt.disconnect the power to stove and open the top and disonnect the wires from elemnt and chks the continuity of the elemnt coil with a multimeter.if the meter does not read continuity then elemnt is bad.to confirm this connect the wires back to the elemnt and plug the unit to power, turn on the switch to high position and read the voltage coming to elemnt.it should be 240 volts.if u read that voltage, then for sure element is bad.if every thing is opposite to this then it is the control switch which is bad.
