KitchenAid Cooktop

KitchenAid KGCP482KSS

Model # KGCP482KSS

The KGCP482KSS is a KitchenAid cooktop sold in the United States. No published specification for this model was recovered. Rather than fill the gap with a figure borrowed from a similar-looking number, this page says only what the sources actually carry. The archive of KitchenAid’s US product site holds it from November 2001 through to April 2005, and no later capture carries it.

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 KGCP482KSS04, KGCP482KSS05. A plate reading one of those is still a KGCP482KSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. By now a KGCP482KSS is an old machine, and the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs carry most of the wear. The KGCP482KSS is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

FAQ

KitchenAid KGCP482KSS FAQ

KitchenAid's stated location for its cooktops is on the cooktop's liner, beneath the burners, and the KGCP482KSS follows it. The label is the one that matters: it gives the full KGCP482KSS model string and the serial number, which together identify which production revision you have.

It affects supply rather than skill. Most of what fails on a KGCP482KSS is a wear component that is still obtainable, and those repairs stay worthwhile. Where a KGCP482KSS part has genuinely gone out of supply, that is said plainly rather than worked around.

On a KGCP482KSS that is usually a switch cycling early or an element that has lost part of its output rather than a single dramatic failure. With the cooktop switched off at its supply, both are measured, and on a KGCP482KSS the comparison between zones is what makes the fault obvious.
