If you go with the H&R Block deduction pro it will be worth 75.00 for avarage ware up to 105 for like new. This is for the 2009 tax year. I do not know what it will be worth for the 2010 tax year as the taxes might change by then.

Good Luck and please rate 4 thumbs up for the free answer.

I take offense at that. I spend my optional time trying to help other people and to give them an alternative to paying a repairman for something that they could do themselves, if they gad a little guidance. Dozens of others are here regularly doing tha same thing...for free. You can get tons of information for free on this site, and you can also directly hire a tech if you need one-on-one assistance. Take a little time to go through this website again; apparently you just hit the wrong button somewhere.
By the way, what is your question?

Respectfully, sort of, Woobie Dog

Don't really need a wiring diagram, although there may be one inside switch area. (make sure to put it back again if it is there) Will need the full model number to get you the part number you need. (model number usually on a sticker near where the electrical wire enters the cook top)
Turn off power to cook top. Open cover to switches. Pull two "pilot" (usually smaller spade terminals) off the switch for the right front burner, and insulate each with a bit of electrical tape. Turn power back on to see if light now off. If yes, replace that switch. If no, replace those wires and repeat procedure with the next switch until you find the bad switch. Send a comment if you need additional help.

Thios induction hob (Electrolux) has 4 wires - Y/G, brown. blue and black.
The Y/G is obviously the Earth conductor, and I would assume normality says that
Brown is the live conductor and Blue the neutral conductor.
The quandry is whether or not to disconnect the black wire completely, as this appears to have no function in a domestic wiring circuit.

Sounds like breaker tripped so no 220 to unit. Reset breaker. The burner switch you first turned on probably blew out and needs replacing, so don't turn it on again. If all else works ok, then that is it. Unless you are handy you may want to call the repair man.

Try looking at the junction box that it is connected to. Maybe one or more of the wires have burned off or come loose from the wire nuts. How many amps is the breaker? Most electric codes require separate circuits (Breakers) for each appliance. First turn off the breaker. There should be an outlet box of some kind on the wall or behind the cabinet. Follow the wire from the cooktop and see where it goes. Open it up and check if any wires are burnt or loose. If it was installed wrong I would change it. Most cooktops shouldn't be fused at more than 30 amps. Single ovens the same, double ovens up to 45 amps. The problem is if they used an old range outlet with 6 gauge wire and tried to connect both appliances to the same wire. This is hard to do without it coming loose.

you set it fro low and goes straigt to high???? no adjustment in heat setting either of or high?? if so youll need to repalce the infinte switch controllins that burner

You can't modify gas appliances.

I have an early 1970s GE, and we keep saying when it breaks down, we will replace it, but apart from replacing elements, it just goes on and on. Unfortunately, neither of your numbers give results. There should be a plate near the power lead that has the details and some have a parts manual and wiring diagram in the rear of the console if it has one. https://www.google.com/search?q=GE+82212+cooktop https://www.google.com/search?q=GE+YT123887L+cooktop ..

Question edited for clarity. There is no fuse, the loads are too great. The Service Manual is in the link. Check the Control Lock on Page 11. https://ja.safe-manuals.com/source/pdf/adea1af72b5b020af66562d603ff2631 https://www.google.com/search?q=ge+pp975s+fuse+location ....

It is a gas appliance. From the installation manual. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier. It needs to come out as there is almost certainly fixings from below. Screws on the burners, only hold the burner rings down. The installation manual doesn't say how the top comes off, just how to install. No Service Manual for it. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/57348/Ge-Jgp630.html?page=1#manual ..

Take out the right front burner and use your multimeter to check it for continuity. Only then can you be sure that the error code isn't lying to you. It is my guess, that with an error message so specific, that if no burners are working, it is not the front right burner at all. Hands on testing is the only way to be sure. F152 means the right front burner has failed, the sensor in it is bad, the burner will need to be replaced.

The element is $225.00 so it is not something to change on a guess. Full testing procedure here, or call for a Service Engineer. https://www.appliancepartspros.com/answers-for-ge-element-radiant-lt-wb30t10080-ap3188020-question-148609.html ..
