Dc June 30, 2014 for Model Number jbp79wb4ww The left rear burner on my stovetop appears to be working correctly, but when it powers up, there is a little crackling noise (like arcing), and when it powers down there is a single little pop. Any idea what might be causing this or what to test to find the source?
1 Answer DC, You will want to check all the wire connections to make sure that they are good connections. Also check wiring to make sure that there are no spots that have broken insulation and causing the arching noise. Check the element to make sure that there is not arching of the element. Read More...
Jay February 19, 2014 for Model Number jbp69wof3ww When I turn on the left hand side 8" haliant back element the 6" front one also comes on. Also the hot surface indicator light is constantly on. What parts will I need to replace to repair this?
1 Answer Hello Jay. You need to test and see which switch is bad and needs to be replaced on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Jim B November 05, 2012 for Model Number JP355BOK1BB I know there shouldn't be a zero or the letter O in the model number but there is. I took a picture of it. The temperature control for the front left element has stopped working. Some times it won't heat up, some times it won't cut off and other times it seems to work okay for a while. Is the problem in the switch or in the element?
Roger B A February 14, 2012 for Model Number JB600wk The element I ordered is moving around & does't stay steady. How can you stop from moving?
1 Answer Roger, Apparently, you forgot to mark and install the new element to the mounting studs on the burner bracket ? " CAUTION: Fibre Ceramic material is very fragile on heating element - avoid contacting. 6. Remove the clips from the mounting studs on the heating element that must be removed. 7. Remove 4 screws (two each side) mounting the radiant element support and lower down on top of oven liner. (Mark heating element stud holes and support screw holes) 8. Disconnect wires and lift element off. 9. Assemble mounting studs, (Reference heating element removed for stud locations DO NOT over TIGHTEN STUDS) Temperature Limit/Hot Light Switch to new unit. 10. Position Springs over mounting studs and insert into marked holes. (It is not necessary to reinstall clips.) 11. Remount support to COOKTOP making sure that the Elements are pressed firmly against bottom of glass and aligned with target areas (Always start the left two screws first for proper alignment). 12. Lower cooktop slowly making sure vent aligns with cooktop opening." Once the element is insalled on the studs properly, there is little to no movement, and the element is aligned properly to the opening in th glass. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Russ May 20, 2011 for Model Number JBP66BK4WH Where can I find a wiring diagram for this part? I drew a diagram for the wiring when I took the old part out but when i put this new one here I can't get both elements to work. When I plugged it back in the large burner came on only. I switched the wires on the 2 pim plug & then the small burner came on but not the large. This proved to me that both elements do work so i'm assuming that I may have made a mistake when I drew the original wiring diagram.

Lester P. April 28, 2011 for Model Number jbp72bom2bb How do you install a burner? Does the top raise up, or do I have to take it off from the back?
1 Answer Hello Lester. You will want to open the oven door, you should be able to see two screws underneath the top. Once you've removed them you will be able to raise the top up. Thanks Read More...
Lsh March 27, 2011 for Model Number JBP64B0B2WH One of the large burners on my cooktop recently stopped working. The continuity checked out on the infinite switch. I'm assuming that the burner element is bad. Any tips on diagnosing/fixing the problem with the burner? Thanks
1 Answer Hello LSH. You can test the element and see if any of the ribbon elements are burnt or broke. The element should read closed for continuity across the ribbon elements. Hope this helps. Read More...
