Parts for Jenn-Air C236B-E: 04 - Top Assembly Parts

This part is a grill element that is used on a cooktop. The element is responsible for supplying heat to the cooking area of the cooktop. If the element is not lighting up orange or red when it is turned on, it will need to be replaced. This part may need to be replaced over time due to normal wear and tear on the appliance. Some users may also notice that the element is not heating evenly or works intermittently. If this is the case, this is a genuine OEM replacement part that is made out of high-quality materials. Unplug the range from the electrical outlet and allow the cooktop ample time to cool down before trying to replace it. Wear work gloves for safety during this process.This part is compatible with cooktops that are manufactured by Jenn-Air and Maytag. It is sold individually and comes from the manufacturer.

This terminal block provides an insulated, secure junction for incoming power or harness leads inside the appliance. Replacing a cracked, loose, or heat-damaged block restores a safe, reliable connection and helps prevent arcing or intermittent power.

• Creates a fixed, insulated junction between external supply wires and internal appliance wiring
• Maintains tight screw-lug connections to minimize resistance and heat buildup
• Helps ensure steady power delivery to controls, motors, and heaters
• Common indicators of failure: melted/discolored block, burning odor, visible arcing, loose or stripped terminals, intermittent or no power

• Disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage before servicing
• Photograph/label wire positions; transfer one lead at a time to the new block
• Tighten terminal screws firmly; do not overtighten into the insulator
• Inspect wire ends/ring terminals and strain relief; replace any heat-damaged components per the service information

This wire harness, also called a contact wire assembly, restores reliable factory connections between the appliance's controls and components. Replacing a damaged harness helps resolve intermittent or failed operation caused by burnt, brittle, or loose wiring and terminals.

• Provides the electrical pathway between controls, switches, and related components
• Can help address intermittent operation or a component that won't run/respond
• Replaces wiring with burned, melted, cut, or corroded insulation/terminals
• Restores proper routing and insulation to reduce shorts, arcing, or overheating

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; also shut off gas supply
• Access the harness by removing necessary panels/knobs; label or photograph connections for reference
• Route the new harness in the original clips/grommets, away from sharp edges and hot or moving parts
• Push connectors on fully until secure; reassemble and test operation

This is a high-heat ceramic light receptacle used in select appliances. It provides a safe, insulated socket for the appliance light bulb so you can reliably see inside during use or service.

• Holds and insulates the bulb in high-temperature areas
• Restores lighting when the bulb is good but the light won't turn on
• Helps correct loose, flickering, or intermittent interior light
• Common signs include a cracked/scorched socket or arcing at the bulb base

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow the appliance to cool completely
• Access may be from inside the cavity or from the rear panel, depending on model
• Transfer wires one at a time to the new receptacle to maintain correct connections
• Install only the bulb type and wattage specified by the appliance manufacturer

This clip secures appliance panels or small components to maintain alignment and reduce vibration, restoring the original fit where a worn or broken fastener allows movement or rattling. Simple, direct-fit replacement when the original clip fails. What it does:

• Holds trim, panels, or small components in position to prevent rattling and shifting.
• Replaces broken or missing fasteners that allow loose or misaligned parts.
• Helps keep wiring harnesses or insulation routed and secured in assemblies.
• Small, inexpensive part commonly used wherever a retaining clip is specified.

• Always disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit) before servicing the appliance.
• Remove panels or trim per the manufacturer service sheet to access the clip; note the clip orientation before removal.
• Use appropriate tools (needle-nose pliers, trim tool) and avoid over-bending the clip or adjacent parts.
• Replace them with the correct OEM-specified clips for reliable fit.

Screw: 8-16 x 3/8 inch.

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Provides a fixed-diameter shoulder for pivots, spacers, or mounting points in assemblies.
• Holds panels and moving components at the correct distance to prevent binding or friction.
• A missing or worn shoulder screw can cause misalignment, rattling, or loose parts during operation.
• Used where a smooth-bearing surface and controlled clearance are required between parts.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing.
• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.

This hex-head sheet metal screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and trim for a tight, rattle-free fit. Replace missing or stripped fasteners to keep covers and components firmly in place and restore proper alignment.

• Fastens sheet-metal parts, brackets, and trim using a hex drive
• Replaces worn, rusted, missing, or stripped screws
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling from loose panels
• Common signs you need this fastener: head or threads stripped, screw won't tighten, panel or handle coming loose

• Unplug the appliance before service; turn off water supply if working near water lines
• Use the correct nut driver or socket to avoid rounding the head
• Replace one fastener at a time to maintain alignment; do not overtighten
• Match screw type/length to the original location as specified by the manufacturer

This factory screw secures appliance components to their mounting points. Replace missing, worn, or stripped hardware to restore a tight fit, proper alignment, and quieter operation across the affected assembly.

• Fastens panels, brackets, covers, or internal parts to the chassis or frame
• Helps maintain alignment and support, reducing rattle, vibration, or looseness
• Replaces missing or damaged screws that have backed out, broken, or stripped
• Restores secure mounting after service when original hardware is lost

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas supplies before servicing
• Use the correct driver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Match length and thread to the original location; do not substitute with longer hardware
• Tighten snugly; do not overtighten into plastic or thin metal
