Frank M Providence , RI November 15, 2014 Burner on my jen air pro range rusted out After many years of excellent service the burner I use most often on the top of my JenAir range rusted through. After trying to remove the burner, which was firmly rusted into place, I decided to replace the cooktop pan, both burners and igniters. It was an easy repair to swap out the new parts for the old, and the only tool necessary was a #2 phillips screw driver. The only difficulty was that although the cooktop pan appears symmetrical, the screw hole pattern on each side is different. I did not discover that until the burners and igniters were all installed, backwards of course! Once together in the right orientation, the refurbished 2 burner unit slid right into place and worked perfectly. The only thing is now the other two burners look shabby and old so I have ordered all new parts for the other side as well. The stove will look brand new when the other is replaced and all for much less than a new range!

Richard C Kenner , LA May 03, 2014 Appliance: Maytag 48" Gas Built-In Downdraft Cooktop JGD8348CDP16 Burner corroded on a jenn air 48" gas cooktop Much simpler than expected. You have to remove the cartridge containing the two burners, then dissemble the plate at the bottom to access the burners, It only requires unscrewing approx six screws holding the access cover and 2 screws at the front that hold the ignition "prongs". One you remove the bottom plate you have full access to the burners from the bottom. You then have to unscrew the screws that hold the gas supply tube to the burner and the igniter. from the burner you are replacing. The burner comer right out and you simply replace it with the new burner and reassemble it careful not to over-tighten screws and strip them. Pay attention to the position of the new burner so that it is lined up so that your igniter wire will reach fully back to where the prongs go through the cartridge. When you see it it will be obvious. Reassemble everything and test.
