I think you nailed it. We do use a large cast iron on the burners quite a bit. The ones that go out are the large burners - the ones we use with a large cast iron pan. This has happened to two different stoves. Are you saying I can just replace the wires? Are they easy to replace?
Thanks

The reason I ask, is because we have this problem with our Mexican tenants because they are used to putting large pots on wood or gas stoves and cooking something that takes a while. They taste great, but the large pot on the electric stove restricts air circulation and fries the wires. It usually happens on the large burners and I have to replace the connection under the stove top often, till they get out of the habit.
