I also have a Kenmore induction cooktop that has bad T30G40
transistors. Has anyone found where to buy them? I need ten in case
someone wants to put a large order to a distributor, and offer to
resell them to end users like me.

Here are the specs:
http://www.datasheetarchive.com/semi...csheet=2032248

Part Number = T30G40
Description = Si NPN Power Bipolar Junction Transistor
Manufacturer = Shindengen
V(BR)CEO (V) = 400
V(BR)CBO (V) = 800
I(C) Abs.(A) Collector Current = 30
Absolute Max. Power Diss. (W) = 200
h(FE) Min. Static Current Gain = 80
f(T) Min. (Hz) Transition Freq = 7.0M
t(d) Max. (s) Delay time. = 3.0u
t(s) Max. (s) Storage time. = 3.0u
t(f) Max. (s) Fall time. = 1.0u
Package = SIP
Military = N

B&D Enterprises (http://www.bdent.com/distributors/shindingen.jsp)
is/was a Shindengen distributor, but this part is not listed on their
site. They may still be worth a try, though.
