Sure can just make sure they are dry befor putting them back. I have seriously cleaned more the 5 or 6 hundred stoves and have had no problems with washing even scrubbing the burners.

If you are talking about the burners themselves ...washing them will not do as good as using them. You will never be able to wash of what the heat won't burn. If you are talking of the thingy ma jiggys underneath the burners, washing them with a brillo pad may work but as above said, just buy new ones.

NO!! the ends of the burners are sealed with a silicone plug but the plug loosens over time with use. the "wire" on the inside is packed in a ceramic filling which can absorb water. if you get them water logged they can short out or burst. and at the prices they go for, it could be quite costly to replace them. just clean them with a damp sponge and cleaner, then wipe with a rinsed sponge and dry. good luck.

NEVER EVER !!!
IMMERSE ELECTRICAL RINGS ,PLATES or BURNERS
into water
You run the risk of ;
electrocution , When you manage to fit them back, in place
( water seep inside can make the element "LIVE" )
OR
the element will malfunction, or even catch fire ,on use
Be SAFE ,
clean elements ( cooker burners)
with a damp cloth and scouring powder
and dry them really well ,before use

Yes you can. Just make darn sure you have let them completely dry before putting them back in. These units are electric, but are a sealed system. Good luck.

Yes, as long as they aren't plugged into the stove and turned on. :)
Seriously, it won't hurt them a bit. Dry them pretty well before putting them back into the use position.

yes and with ease just tug and the burners remove and wash and place them back - no problem!

Yes certainly. They are not charged when unplugged, and all you need to is allow drying then plug them back in.

No because they have electric on them and electric things should not be exposed to water!
