Parts for Ge JB860FJ7DS: Control Panel Parts

The control panel End Plate (Left) is an OEM part for GE electric ranges. It forms a barrier along the back left edge of the control panel area providing structural reinforcement and protection.

Over time, end plates can sustain damage due to normal wear and tear of using range buttons/dials daily as well as impacts from accidental bumps. Causes may include operation fatigue plus occasional mishandling.   

Causes of a bad end plate include:

• Dents, scratches or cracks in the protective barrier surface
• Loosened mounting fasteners holding it securely  
• Reduced control panel integrity and rigidity over long use
• Exposure of fragile internal electronics to potential damage

This exact GE replacement part also fits Hotpoint, RCA and select Kenmore models.

The Control Board and Overlay is an OEM replacement part for GE ranges and ovens. It serves as the central control unit, responsible for regulating and managing various functions of the appliance.

Symptoms of a bad control board include:

• The oven or range not turning on or responding to inputs
• Displays or lights not functioning properly
• Erratic or inconsistent temperature control
• Failure of specific cooking modes or features

Causes of a bad control board can include electrical surges, power outages, water damage, or general wear and tear over time. The overlay is the user interface that protects the control board while providing access to buttons and displays.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Switch Infinite Control is an OEM part for GE ranges. It acts as a critical regulator for the temperature settings on electric dual-element burners, allowing users to adjust the heat level accurately. This component ensures that the electric burners heat up to the desired temperature and maintain it consistently for optimal cooking results.

Symptoms of a bad Switch Infinite Control include:

• Burners not heating to the set temperature
• Inability to adjust the heating level of burners
• Burners heating unevenly or excessively

Causes of a bad switch can include internal component failure due to overheating, wear and tear from frequent use, or electrical faults within the switch mechanism.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Range Surface Burner Control Switch is an OEM part for GE ranges. This switch manages the temperature of the surface burners on your range, providing the ability to adjust the heat level. Whether you're simmering sauces or boiling water, the control switch ensures precise temperature management, enhancing your cooking experience.

The causes of a faulty burner control switch often include prolonged use leading to wear on the electrical contacts, exposure to moisture causing short circuits, or physical damage from impact or excessive force when turning the knob. 

Symptoms of a bad surface burner control switch:

• The burner not turning on or off 
• Inability to adjust the heat level, with the burner staying at one temperature regardless of the knob setting.
• Intermittent burner function 

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Rotary Switch is an OEM part for GE electric ranges. This switch is located on the range control panel and allows selection of various oven functions such as bake, broil, and keep warm.

Causes of a bad rotary switch can be normal wear and tear over time, exposure to heat or moisture damage, or accidental impact. Replacing it before a complete failure occurs can help prevent further issues.

Symptoms of a bad rotary switch include:

• Inability to select desired oven functions
• Switch getting stuck or failing to rotate properly
• Displays not accurately reflecting selected function
• Intermittent or unreliable operation of oven

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This pilot indicator light mounts in the control panel and illuminates to show when a heating circuit is active. Replace a failed or damaged pilot light to restore a clear "on" reminder and improve everyday visibility around hot surfaces.

• Provides a visual "ON" signal when the corresponding control is turned on
• Common symptoms: indicator won't light, is dim or flickers, or the lens/housing is damaged
• Restores a clear status cue to help you see when heat is active
• Direct replacement for the original pilot light assembly

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Remove back cover or control panel trim to access the light
• Note wire positions and transfer them to the new light one at a time
• Seat the light securely in the panel opening, reassemble, and test

The Indicator Light Lens is an OEM component specifically designed for GE ranges. This clear plastic lens surrounds the internal cooktop indicator lights to protect the bulbs. 

Causes of a damaged lens can include normal wear from regular usage as well as accidental bumps or spills on the control panel surface.

Symptoms include:

• Cracks, scratches or clouding appearing on the lens material
• The lens detaching from its mounting points
• Obscured visibility of indicator lights below  

This genuine GE lens is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models too.

This hinge pin secures the rangetop to the cooktop assembly, providing a reliable pivot point for lifting and lowering the top. It restores proper alignment and stable movement for safe, everyday use. What it does

• Replaces a worn or damaged hinge pin that can cause the rangetop to wobble, stick, or sit unevenly.
• Restores smooth pivot action when opening or closing the cooktop/top.
• Helps maintain proper alignment between the rangetop and the range frame to prevent binding.
• Works with the original hinge components to ensure a secure, stable connection.

• One hinge pin for the rangetop.

• Basic hand tools required; follow the range manufacturer's disassembly steps.
• Disconnect power supply and gas and ensure the appliance is cool before beginning work.
