I have a very old Jenn Air Cooktop with a downdraft in the middle of it and a cartridge that holds 2 burners each. One Cartridge on the Left, Downdraft in the middle and Cartridge with 2 burners on the right. I am not sure of the model # since the lable in the downdraft is unreadable. The wires of the Burners in the right cartridge were all burnt and were rewired with new wiring. Now the right front burner knob is turning both burners on at the same time but the back burner knob is not turning on any burner. What would cause one burner switch to turn both of the burners on at the same time? The label on the Downdraft Plenum says 2375/90. I am thinking this cootop is 2375ERS. Would a bad infinite switch cause this issue? The infinite switch says on it 240-112 7036F 7W 74h 15A 240 VAC The back of the cartridge that the burners sit in says 87818 & 87847 To be used only with Jenn Air Range Model # 3800-3875-3890ERS 3350 Watt 240 Volts. Please help.

Shannon, With this issue it sounds more likely that when the wiring was replaced something got wired incorrectly causing the one burner switch to turn both burners on like they are both connected to the same switch and nothing being connected to the other switch. Unfortunately due to the age of the unit we would not have any wiring information available to determine this.

Bruce, While it is uncommon for the limiter on the burner to be bad on a new part, it is possible that it could be and you would need to get the burner.

Hello Wally, The parts you have been viewing are the correct parts for the model number you listed. Please accept our apologies for the compatibility tool. It is still in work and doesn't recognize all model and/or part numbers. Please disregard it for the time being.

Blue G. for Model Number Jenn Aire C201

I am considering purchasing one or two of your burning element infinite switches, part no. 700855k, for my Jenn Air 201 cook top. The prior switch, purchased locally, lasted one year and one week (planned obsolescence at work), while the second burner switch installed in 2010 has also just gone awry. The original switches lasted over 15 years. Thus I am interested in the warranty is on your switches. Thank you for your attention. Blue G.
