- Receptacle or terminal block showing heat damage
- Burner stuck on high or off
The MEC4430AA is a Maytag electric cooktop. The number is also sold with color or revision endings such as MEC4430AAB, MEC4430AAC and MEC4430AAQ, so the last letters on your label tell us which one you own. Cooktops in this series are common in Houston kitchens that have been updated in stages.
The first test on a cooktop like this is the element. If it is a plug-in coil type, we also inspect the receptacle, because a pitted socket can ruin a new coil. If it is a smooth-top type, we test the element and its limiter. Then we check the infinite switch for the burner that is failing, since it controls how much power reaches the element.
Parts for older Maytag cooktops are often still available, and we say so before you decide. We read the full number and serial from the label, give a written price first, and back each repair with a 30-day workmanship warranty.

What do the letters at the end of MEC4430AA mean?
They usually mark a color or revision, such as B, C or Q. We do not assume they all share the same parts, so we read your complete number before we order.
My burner is stuck on high. What causes that?
Most often the infinite switch for that burner has failed. We shut off the breaker, test the switch and wiring, and replace only what fails the test.
Should I replace the coil if the socket is burned?
Replace the socket as well, or the new coil can overheat and fail early. We inspect the receptacle first and include it in the written price if it needs work.
