Nicholas November 14, 2012 for Model Number jkp54gov1bb I'm trying to replace the broil element but find that there is a cover over the fan which inhibits the removal of the element. I need to know what tool (maybe a socket wrench) would be use to remove the screws attached. I need to know the bolt size so I can get the correct socket.
1 Answer Hello Nicholas, The screws that hold the fan cover in place are 1/4" Hex head screws. Read More...
John October 18, 2012 for Model Number GE- JKP54COT2BB (PN; WB44K5009) My broiler element shorted out today and began arcing, as this unit is a wall oven, I had to shut the power off at the panel. My question is, is this just an issue with element or could there be another issue causing the short? Thanks for your help and insight! John
1 Answer John, overtime the broil/bake elements can short out. When they fail it can cause sparking/arcing within the oven cavity. The replacement broil element used on your model is part number WB44K5009. Thanks! Read More...
Robert P March 26, 2012 for Model Number JKP56AAA2AA The Broiler coil burned clean through and the metal kept burning. The Off switch did not do anything to stop the coild from heating. I had to turn the power off to the stove. Of course I need a new coil, but is the "off" switch bad ? THANK YOU
1 Answer Robert, Based on your post, you definitely need a new broil element WB44K5009 Before you replace the control WB27T10282 , When you replace the element, Check for 120 to 220 VAC across the two wires that attach to the element, There should be no voltage, unless the relay on the clock or wiring is damaged. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Michelle May 26, 2011 for Model Number jkp16gp4bg How do you remove this broil element? AP2030967, Thank you
1 Answer Hello Michelle. You will need to disconnect the power to the unit. The remove the element from the brackets and remove the screws in the back of the oven holding the element in place. Pull the element forward and remove the wires from the element. Reinstall in reverse order. Hope this helps. Read More...
