While cooking on the cooktop, there was a loud pop and it shut off. We tried the breaker, but it won't reset. We checked to see if breaker was bad, but the problem is not the breaker. Don't know where to start?

SOURCE: downdraft vent on jenn air cooktop
How do you get the inside area of the vent clean from the grease and oils where the filter is?? I have a rectangular box style downdraft that the vent goes into the floor, I pulled the filter, but the box is to slender to get an arm into to scrub the grease....... does the bottom come off, or is it a sealed unit? How do you get all the brease from the bottom if you cannot reach it?
SOURCE: Jenn-Air Cooktop replacement needed
You can get a new cooktop surface from Maytag/Jennair for $229. It is a pain however to replace it. Where is the crack in your cooktop and does that crack pass directly through a heating element? If not, then you may be able to repair it. I broke the corner off mine, and then dropped the piece (now 5 pieces). I was able to bond them back together and you really can't tell it was ever broken. But, it takes some work.

Looking up the service manual - it is no longer available.
Hope this is helpful.

SOURCE: electric shock from cooktop, didn't trip breaker,
Where did you smell the smell was it from the fan switch. turn the power off and take the screw out of where the fan switch is and check the wires to the switch and the switch itself. sometimes the jennair cooktops have issues with that switch. let me know how it goes
Cidalia C: Hi, my name is Cidalia C. How may I help you? You: Hello! You: I have a question regarding my "Downdraft Radiant Cooktop" Cidalia C: Thank you for contacting Jenn-Air today with your inquiry. What is your question please? You: None of my burners can simmer-- no matter what the setting, they will boil water! You: Is there an adjustment that can be made to attenuate the heat? Cidalia C: What is the model number of your cook top please You: JED8430ADB Cidalia C:
Thank you. In looking at your burner configuration, the smallest
wattage on your unit is 1200. And, unfortunately, there is no way to
get a small wattage for your burners. We apologize for the
inconvenience. You: Yes, but the dials are supposed to prevent the full 1200 watts from reaching the burner unless it's on maximum heat, correct? Cidalia C: Yes, but the burners do not get low enough to be considered simmer burners. Cidalia C: Did you have any other questions or concerns today? You: I suppose not. Cidalia C: Thank you for contacting Jenn-Air. Have a good day!839 views
