The KECC502GWH belongs to KitchenAid’s US cooktop catalogue. The one specification line recovered for the KECC502GWH describes it as a 30″ Ceramic-glass Electric Cooktop with Radiant Elements, and this page does not go beyond it. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from January 2000 to August 2003 and gone after that.
KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KECC502GWH05, KECC502GWH06, KECC502GWH2, KECC502GWH3, KECC502GWH4. A plate reading one of those is still a KECC502GWH; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A cooktop of that vintage is two decades or more into service, and the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs are long past as-new. The KECC502GWH is no longer made, so what can actually be obtained for it is the first thing looked at, not the last.

Most Common Issues on This Model
Control knobs and their shafts worn, so the setting no longer matches the mark on the panel
A thermal limiter cutting a zone early because the glass beneath it is running hot
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
