Why does the control knob for the left hand front burner operate differently to the other three? Why does the whole area of that burner ie the outer circle, not heat up? Is there a particular way of wiring the appliance to the power source in order to resolve this?
SOURCE: knob not working and some burners not heating
The switch under that knob is bad. It's called an infinite switch. As far as the elements go, first thing to check is for proper voltage (220) to the cooktop. Let me know what you find.

Check the power plug is their any separate plug on it / if none check the control panel some switch to power on .

take knob off and check the middle is not split and hence not turning the shaft

Scott,
On each of the heating elements there is a thermostat that does two things. It is a high limit safety thermostat and then a different set of contacts turn on the hot surface light. Unfortunately, you can't just replace that part. You will need to isolate which element it is with a mutimeter and replace the entire element.When you turn one of the units on high you will see a dark line under the glass running 1/2 way across the elements. Those are the thermostats... Find the defective one and the rest is pretty simple to replace
