The KGCP463KSS belongs to KitchenAid’s US cooktop catalogue. No published specification for this model was recovered. What survives is the model number and a dated record of when KitchenAid was showing it, and that is what is set out here. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from November 2001 to February 2006 and gone after that.
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 KGCP463KSS04, KGCP463KSS05. A plate reading one of those is still a KGCP463KSS; 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. Discontinued does not mean unrepairable, but it does mean availability of the specific part for a KGCP463KSS is established before any figure is put on the job.
