The KGCU462VSS is a KitchenAid cooktop. 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. It sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from September 2013 until September 2015, 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 KGCU462VSS00, KGCU462VSS01. A plate reading one of those is still a KGCU462VSS; 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 KGCU462VSS is at the age where the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs are the usual suspects. The KGCU462VSS is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.
