Electrolux E30EC65ESS Smoothtop Cooktop Repair

Most common issues on this model

  1. Radiant element that stays cold or heats weakly
  2. Control knob that leaves an element on high
  3. Hot surface light that stays lit after cooking
  4. Cracks or burn marks on the glass top

The Electrolux Icon E30EC65ESS is a 30-inch electric cooktop, built to drop into the counter, from the Icon Designer Series, with radiant elements under a smoothtop glass surface. Electrolux no longer makes it, yet a lot of Houston kitchens still have one, and we still repair it.

A drop-in cooktop sits in a countertop cutout, so we start by looking over the glass for cracks, then test each radiant element and the switch that controls it. Owners usually call because one element stays cold, a knob leaves an element on high, or the hot surface light will not shut off.

This number also turns up with ESS1, ESS2 and ESS3 endings, so before we order a part we copy the whole model and serial off the label. If a repair would not pay off on a cooktop this age, we will tell you straight. The quote is on paper before we start, and 30 days of workmanship coverage follow the job.

E30EC65ESSE30EC65ESS questions
Is the E30EC65ESS gas or electric?

It is electric. This 30-inch drop-in uses radiant elements under smooth glass, so it runs on a dedicated electrical supply and has no gas connection. That also means checks focus on elements, switches and wiring rather than burners and igniters.

Can one bad element be replaced without changing the whole cooktop?

Usually yes. On a radiant smoothtop like this we test the element and its switch separately, and replace only the part that fails. If the glass itself is cracked, the cost is often too high, and we tell you that before you decide.

What do the ESS1, ESS2 and ESS3 endings mean?

They mark revision builds of the same E30EC65ESS cooktop. Parts can differ between builds, so we read the full number from the label under the unit before ordering. That avoids paying for an element or switch that does not fit.
