20 Most Recent Jenn-Air JED8430 Electric Cooktop - Page 6 Questions & Answers

Sorry to hear your cook top is cracked. Unfortunately it cannot be properly sealed like a car window. Here is your part#74010843. This is a pretty pricey part and I suggest you use a professional on this repair who will warranty their work in case the glass is cracked again. Furthermore, there are a lot of pieces to take apart and fit back in.
Side note* Be sure to check you owners manual sometimes you can get factory service repaired covered more than just the first year. If the cooktop glass had a bubble or imperfection that could have caused your crack to begin with.
I wish you the very best of luck.

This is usually the infinite switch has failed. They are easy to check and inexpensive. Here is a video that will walk you thru testing an infinite switch. It may be a different model but the testing will be the same. You can also enter your model # for diagrams and illustrations for your specific model. Not all models are available. All parts come with installation instructions.

I didn't have that problem, but I had a burned out switch and cracked cooktop, and found replacement parts at www.appliancepartspros.com. not advertising for them. but I bought they have the parts, it's reasonable cost, and they had it to me in 2 days.

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote that will help figure out why the burner spark keeps on clicking...

What you had was a slow short - practically the same thing as in a welder: big and loud flame, localized and the amperage isn't that great. As such it's very possible that the breaker wasn't tripped, especially if you had a big one, over 30Amps.
No, you shouldn't even try to repair it, that unit is dead as a dodo.

Yes it isa safe to seal the cooktop to the counter with caulk.

You will have to replace the switch associated with the burner element with the problem.

Go back and recheck your wiring. It sounds like you have the burners wired in series together.

The top dimensions are 29 3/4" x 22" and the cut out needs to be 28 7/8" x 21 1/8" if the need the install manual you can get on the link below.

Tips:

1. When cleaning control knobs and control panels on cooktops and ranges, be careful that you don't scrub off the markings. Treat these components and their markings gently.

What You Need:
1)Manufacturer's instructions.2) Plastic scrubbing pad.3) Dish soap 4) Cleaning cloth 5)Abrasive cleaner (optional) 6)Smooth cooktop commercial cleaners
1. Clean an enamel surface:--Use a plastic scrubber and mild detergent or dish soap and water. Don't use abrasive items that can scratch your enamel. Enamel can stain, so it's important to wipe up spills right away. Be especially careful of acidic spills like vinegar, tomato products, lemon juice, and other citrus products.Pull off the knobs and clean them and the area around them with dish soap and water. Raise the cooktop to wipe up spills that may have accumulated beneath the cooktop surface.
2. Clean the coils:---Electric coils don't need to be cleaned because of their self-cleaning nature, but gas burners tend to accumulate layers of thick grease and spills that turn into burned on junk. You may need to soak the parts in hot water and dish soap or even scrub with a plastic scrubber. Occasionally only an abrasive cleaner will do the trick. Don't forget to wipe down the drip pans and bowls underneath the coils with a mild abrasive, or soak them to remove stubborn spills.
