Parts for Ge JSS86SP5SS: Control Panel Parts

The Stainless Steel Range Control Panel & Board is an OEM replacement part for GE electric ranges. 

Causes of a bad control panel include moisture damage over time degrading boards, physical impacts compromising switches or wiring, or faulty temperature sensors interfering with bake cycles.  

Symptoms of issues include:

• “Light” bake quality with inconsistent bottom heating   
• Inability to set or change oven temperature accurately  
• Flashing error codes due to component malfunctions
• Dirt buildup or damage obscuring control panel markings

This GE replacement is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore ranges too.

The Stainless Control Panel Overlay is an OEM part for GE ranges. It provides a protective barrier over the control panel display and buttons. This overlay shields sensitive electronic components from damage.

Symptoms of a bad control panel overlay include:

• Peeling or bubbling of the overlay surface  
• Cracks or missing pieces that expose underlying parts
• Dulling or discoloration of the installed overlay
• Unreadable display or unresponsive control buttons

Causes of control panel overlay failure include repeated exposure to heat from the cooktop or oven, as well as substances dropped while cooking. Heavy use over several years also contributes to degradation of the overlay materials. 

This part is also compatible with some Hotpoint and RCA models.

The Infinite Switch is an OEM part for GE electric ranges. This switch is responsible for controlling the surface elements.

Causes of a bad infinite switch can include wear from normal use over time, exposure to heat or moisture damage, or faulty wiring.

Symptoms of a bad infinite switch include:

• Heating elements not working properly or shutting off unexpectedly
• Inability to control cooktop burners 
• Switch housing becoming cracked or damaged

This OEM GE 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.

This control panel gasket seals the cooktop/console area to keep moisture, grease and crumbs out of the range control cavity for cleaner operation and improved component protection. Replaces a worn or missing console seal to reduce debris buildup and possible shorting. What it does:

• Forms a tight seal between the control panel and console to block grease, spills and food particles.
• Helps prevent moisture and debris from reaching electronic controls and switches.
• Reduces rattling or movement by cushioning the control panel.
• Commonly replaced when torn, flattened, missing, or allowing visible gaps at the control area.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work.
• Removal typically requires lifting or removing the control surface—follow the range/oven service instructions.
• Clean mating surfaces of old adhesive, grease and debris before installing the new gasket.
• Align gasket carefully and press firmly; replace any fasteners or adhesive strips used by the manufacturer.

A stainless infinite knob that replaces a worn or broken range or oven control knob, restoring smooth selection of heat/power settings and a clean stainless look for your appliance controls. What it does:

• Fits onto the stove/range infinite control shaft to set burner or oven power levels.
• Replaces cracked, chipped, or missing knobs that won't turn or slip on the control shaft.
• Restores precise user control when settings are hard to select or the knob is loose.
• Matches stainless control panels for a consistent, refreshed appearance.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to reduce shock risk.
• Typically installs by hand: pull the old knob straight off, align splines, and press the new knob onto the shaft until seated.
• Do not force the knob; if it won't seat easily, verify spline alignment and shaft condition.

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.

The 14 Gauge Grounding Lead Wire is an OEM part for GE electric ranges. It grounds interior metal components for enhanced safety performance.

Symptoms of a failed grounding lead wire include:

• Risk of electric shocks from improperly earthed metal surfaces  
• Circuit breaker trips or fuse blows from inadequate grounding  
• Appliance malfunctions and intermittent power from faulty ground path

Causes can be fatigue cracks from metal expansion/contraction cycles over time, exposed strands from abrasion damage, and loose terminal connections.

This OEM part is also compatible with Hotpoint and RCA electric range models.

The Harness Wire is an OEM part for GE cooktops. It is responsible for securely connecting and routing wiring between the various electronic components and controls of the cooktop.

Causes of a bad harness wire can include cracked, frayed, or broken insulation leading to electrical shorts, damage to connecting terminals preventing a solid connection, or loose wiring interfering with proper operations.

Symptoms of a bad harness wire include:

• Controls or switches that do not work properly or become unresponsive
• Error codes displayed or abnormal control panel behaviors
• Burners that will not ignite or will not stay lit
• Units that cease functioning entirely

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

Size: 8-18 BA POR 3/4 SN

The Insert Plug is an OEM part for GE electric ranges and cooktops. It serves to seal any unused gas orifices to prevent leaks, drafts, and infiltration of foreign materials.

Symptoms of a faulty or missing plug include: 

• Gas leaks discernible by smell around unlit burner ports
• Drafts affecting oven or broiler performance  
• Contaminants obstructing gas flow or pilot ignition

Causes are typically loose or lost plugs from normal use and cleaning over time. Replacing with this genuine GE part restores safety and maximum efficiency. Compatible models include Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore lines as well - securing all openings protects both you and your appliance. Avoid future issues and keep cooking functions running optimally.

This silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) switches and regulates power to heating elements and motors in compatible appliances, restoring controlled current flow for proper operation. It's a direct-replacement electronic switching component. What it does:

• Acts as a solid-state switch to control AC power to heater or motor circuits
• Helps regulate current during timed or thermostatic cycles
• Common replacement when appliance shows intermittent heating, no heat, or erratic motor control
• Replaces a failed/shorted SCR that can cause blown fuses or control board errors

• One silicon controlled rectifier (single SCR)

• Intended for technicians or experienced DIYers; disconnect power before servicing
• Verify correct SCR orientation and secure the 8-32 screw terminal; avoid overtightening
