Amana AKT3040 Electric Cooktop Questions & Answers
No burners work
Do you have power? Check to make sure the power cord is plugged in. Check for a reset button where it's plugged in to the wall. (It may be tripped). Check your breaker box for a tripped switch.

Amana will confirm this - but I am fairly sure that the elements under the glass are replaceable. Most units by other manufacturers are repairable...but if yours is not, then careful shopping around will save a ton on parts cost.
Labor will vary by market...but it is typically better to have the replacement part when contacting a repair service.
Oh, yes, the snap is a broken burner element. the breaker trips because the resistance on a shorted element is insufficient - and the current draw becomes excessiver - popping the breaker.

We have a smooth electric cooktop and the burner
first check the wiring to the burner itself you might have a burnt connection to the larger one or a bad receptacle if both are good then you would have to buy a new burner try allbrands appliance parts they seem to be cheaper
Multiple burners turning on
You have wires that have melted and fused together giving you the result that you describe. If you are mechanically inclined you can make the repairs yourself, if not, hire a pro as you can get a serious shock. Get back and let me know how you make out.
Burner light does not go off on Amana AKT3040
Sounds like a short in that particular burner circuit. Usually when the light stays on even after cool down the heat sensor is bad. This is inside the burner. If your getting white smoke the burner switch could also be shorted out.
Oven wont turn on but top burners work
You will only need the make and model of the cooktop to order the ignitor. Open the bottom drawer below the oven to find the data plate with model & serial #'s on the front of the oven.
