Parts for Ge JBS86EP4ES: 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.

• Helps address symptoms like a specific feature not working, intermittent operation, or no power to a component
• Replace if the original shows heat damage, broken leads, or loose connections
• Direct replacement for the original jumper used in the wiring harness

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use your model's wiring diagram to locate the correct jumper
• Label/photograph wire positions and transfer one connection at a time
• Ensure connectors are fully seated; do not alter the factory wiring configuration

This control cover is the replacement trim that protects and finishes the range/oven control console, restoring a clean appearance and shielding the underlying switches and electronics from spills and debris.

• Helps return normal control access so timers, modes, and temperature settings can be entered.

• Disconnect power at the breaker before any service to avoid electrical shock.
• Handle glass and painted surfaces carefully to avoid scratches or breakage.
• Basic disassembly of the oven control housing and possibly the back guard is usually required; keep fasteners organized.

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.

This rotary switch turns with the control knob to open and close circuits that command your appliance's function. A worn or failed switch can cause a control to stop responding, work intermittently, or not hold its setting.

• Provides on/off or multi-position control for the selected function
• Restores proper response to the matching control knob
• Common failure signs include non-responsive control, intermittent operation, or inability to change settings
• Electrical parts should be handled with power disconnected

• Disconnect power before servicing; verify no voltage is present
• Note wire positions or take a photo before removal
• Transfer knob shaft orientation and mounting hardware from the original if reusable
• Do not overtighten mounting fasteners; test operation before reassembly

This replacement control knob fits the surface burner's infinite switch on compatible ranges and cooktops. It restores smooth on/off operation and precise heat selection while refreshing the appliance's appearance.

• Attaches to the surface element's infinite switch to select OFF through HI settings
• Restores ability to turn the burner on/off and adjust heat levels accurately
• Ideal replacement for knobs that are cracked, stripped, loose, missing, or hard to turn
• Helps ensure the indicator aligns properly with the control panel markings

• Disconnect power and allow all burners to cool before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off the switch shaft; do not pry against the control panel
• Align the new knob with the shaft and OFF position, then push straight on until fully seated
• Restore power and test each setting for proper engagement and alignment

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.
