The CE152T/S is a 15-inch radiant electric cooktop, two elements under ceramic glass, Transitional trim — and unlike Wolf’s induction lines, it works with any flat-bottomed pan regardless of whether the base is magnetic. That compatibility is the main trade-off against induction: broader cookware support, but a different heating and failure profile underneath.
An element that heats weakly or not at all is usually that element’s own heating coil or its connection to the control, while all elements going dead together points somewhere shared — the control board or the power supply reaching the cooktop — rather than a single element failing. A cracked or chipped glass surface is its own separate, purely physical repair.
