88353 Jenn-Air Cooktop - Instructions

Simply pulled the old filter out and put the new filter in.

I ordered part one day, recieved part the next day. I installed it the next day. It worked perfect. THANK YOU!

I used process of elimination to figure out the issue with my 28 year old Jenn-Air cooktop. Issue: One day while cooking there was a loud pop & from then the front burner no longer had any temp control & only heated to full blast plus. Steps to fix: 1) Replaced the surface burner elements PS2195246 - this didn't fix the issue but they look nicer now. This was a simple plug in - no tools needed. 2) Replaced the grill side with a 2 burner plug in part PS1941381. Also simple plug in with no tools required. This didn't fix the isssue & I found that the front burner on the new unit also had no temp control. 3) Replaced the Surface Burner Receptacles for the 2 original burners PS1570190. This required turning off the breaker, removing the cooktop by unscrewing all the little screws & then cutting the old connections with wire cutters and wiring the new parts in with wire nuts & electrical tape. It took maybe half an hour but did not fix the issue. 4) Replaced the Surface Unit Infinite Switch Kit PS2076107 for the front 2 burners. Removed the screws just for the center control panel (after turning off the breaker) then took a picture of the wire configuration & removed the old parts by pulling (hard) at the connections until they unplugged. Put the new part in with the same wire placement. This finally fixed the issue & we now have 4 working burners for the first time in the >1 year that we have lived in this house.

follow the EASY to read and understand instructions.replaced all 4 controls in about 35 min.

removed old motor from cooktop & motor housing & replaced w/ new motor & parts to install same. parts needed where screws & isolators (3).All went ok

I removed the two screws holding the control panel in place with a Phillips screwdriver, pulled the assembly of switches up, and found the number on the old switches. Amazingly on PartsSelect's website I found a picture of the exact switch with the exact same part number stamped on it. I ordered three new switches, and they arrived two or three days later. I removed the wires from the old switch with a pair of needle-nose pliers, reconnected them to the new switch in the exact same places, and had all three of them installed and working perfectly in about 45 minutes or an hour.

Replacing the switch was quick and easy. It actually took only about two minutes.

I removed the protective grid over the filter and fan, turned the clip that held the filter in place and removed it. I placed the new intact filter for my antiquated Jenn-aire in its place, replaced the protective grid, and am happily continuing to cook on my functional cook top.Thank you.

Old filter allowed too much air flow causing exhaust fan to go off....installed new filter in exhaust chamber...release clip on old filter and install new filter (at an angle) in the exhaust box....clamp down clip on edge of filter and job is complete

Turn off power to cooktop. Lift the broken infinite switch knob off the switch console. Use pliers to remove the hex nut that is under the knob. Then remove the grill over the exhaust vent to expose the two screws that hold the switch console in place. Using a philips head screwdriver, unscrew the two screws and lift the console up as far as the wiring will let you. Push the two little clips on either side of the electrical component you want to replace, to release it from its harness. Pay attention to the wires of the broken switch and pull one off at a time and attach to the new part. I used a knife to pry the wires off the electrical pins. Once all wires are reattached, clip the component into the harness and attach the hex nut back onto the protruding d-stem. Put all back together and test the switch before turning power back on. If ok, turn power on and test again.

Wrap first three fingers of right around old knob. Pull it off and throw in trash. Take new burner knob and slide it onto the stem. Repeat 3X, that is, once for each remaining burner knob. Time to complete job - 45 seconds. :-D

The grease filter was 20+ yrs old and the mesh was falling of the frame. I was very pleased to find this replacement filter (the first filter I received was damaged....placed a call to PartSelect and have a new one the next day). Can't beat service like that!! Thank you, June Patten

Installed the new filter and replaced the knobs in about a minute. Customer service helped me find the right parts for an over-35-year-old unit and the installation of them was elementary and took probably less than a minute. I am in business again, cooking for my family; and my visiting relatives can cook without guessing the temperature (previous knobs were illegible. Recommend this site without reservation. (Received the parts in about 2 days!). A real treasure of a save!

Simply pull off the old ones and replace with the new ones. Problem was finding the correct knobs with the double "s" shaft fitting.The item number indicated by the model number was incorrect. I saw a kit with four knobs on your web site and ordered the kit and not the recommended item. Turned out to be the right move and the knobs fir just fine.

Placed new burner knobs onto cooktop. easy
