The KFGU766VSS is a KitchenAid cooktop sold in the United States. No published specification for this model was recovered — no dimension, no capacity, no feature list — so none is stated here, and no figure has been taken from a neighbouring model number. It sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from December 2011 until February 2018, which is the window the archive records.
KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KFGU766VSS00, KFGU766VSS01, KFGU766VSS02. A plate reading one of those is still a KFGU766VSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. Ten years and more into service, a KFGU766VSS is at the age where the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs are the usual suspects. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

Most Common Issues on This Model
A cooking zone that no longer heats while its neighbours work normally
An infinite switch failed closed, so the zone runs at full heat regardless of where the knob is set
Cracked or chipped ceramic glass, which takes the cooktop out of service until the glass is dealt with
Touch controls that respond intermittently or not at all, where a touch panel is fitted
