KitchenAid Cooktop

KitchenAid KGCU407VSS

Model # KGCU407VSS

The KGCU407VSS 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. KitchenAid’s US product site carried it from September 2013 to June 2017, and nothing was captured for it afterwards.

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 KGCU407VSS00, KGCU407VSS01. A plate reading one of those is still a KGCU407VSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KGCU407VSS in use today is about a decade old, and the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs account for most of what it gets called out for. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KGCU407VSS FAQ

No - front badging is a series name, not a model number. The KGCU407VSS number comes off the plate on the cooktop's liner, beneath the burners, and that is the string to work from. Two machines wearing the same front badge can differ in parts, so the KGCU407VSS plate is what settles it.

Often yes, and where they cannot we say so at the point we find out, so you are not billed for work that cannot be completed. That check comes first on a discontinued model like the KGCU407VSS, not last.

Not always - it can simply be a pan the surface cannot work with. With the cooktop switched off at its supply, a known suitable pan is tried on every zone of a KGCU407VSS first, and only a zone that rejects everything is treated as a fault on a KGCU407VSS.
