How to Troubleshoot & Replace Ge AP2028009 / WB31K5080 Burner Bowl Md

Ordered the correct size drip bowls (All drip bowls have the same outside diameter but different (small, medium or large) inside hole diameters.) Removed 5 knobs by pulling straight up. Removed grate, burner cover, and burner from each of the five burners. Unscrewed two hold down screws from center of each drip bowl. Lifted each drip bowl, pulled wire off the igniter, pushed U-shaped clip off igniter and pulled igniter up thru top of drip bowl, pushed igniter down thru top of new bowl, pushed clip onto igniter. Before replacing the bowls and knobs, lift the glass top off the cooktop. Hold new spark module beside old module and pull off one wire at a time from the old module and press it onto the same terminal of the new module. Use a small socket to remove each screw holding down each end of the old module and screw in the new module. Replace the glass top, press each wire onto each igniter and place each bowl in its glass top hole. Press the glass top sideways to allow all the bowls to fall into place. Insert all the screws loosely into the bowls and slide the glass top again to center bowls. Tighten all screws and replace all knobs, burners, burner covers and grates. 

My 10 year old son and I replaced all 4 of them within minutes 

I replaced the burner bowls 

The new burner bowls for my GE cook top were easy to put in by removing the two screws, the clips holding in the igniter, and disconnecting the igniter from the wire (it pulls off and then can be pushed back into the connector on the wire); then, I reassembled. The only tricky bit was the silicone gaskets that there is no replacement for since I had to use the old ones, which were not in good shape. The repair was easy and took about 15 minutes for two bowls. 

Replaced the burner bowls and the bowl seals. 

Easy and quick. Two screws per burner. Very happy with 2 day delivery using standard shipping. 

I replaced damaged burner bowls (drip pans), now my cooktop looks like new! 

I purchased the trays hoping they would fit since I couldn’t find the model number on the stove top. The pictures were helpful and the product looked correct. The trays came quickly and were an exact match. The trays were easily removed and the igniters were easy to unplug and reinstall. The stove top looks like new now. 

Easy job once have correct pan size. First one ordered was not the right size, had to talk to the techie to determine the correct one. Seems there are three different sizes on this cooktop.
