JED8430ADB Jenn-Air Cooktop - Instructions

Turned off power to cooktop and double checked
Lifted up entire cooktop and rested it on two pieces of wood that spanned gap underneath
Removed screws from around edges to free the metal framework that holds the cooktop in place-- this requires spinning the cooktop a bit to get access to the back.
Lifted metal framework off
Lifted glass from cooktop off
Checked configuration of power plug ins against new part and noted where they should go. There was a slight difference of how plugs were arranged, but it was easy to logic out.
Removed old burner unit and plugged in new one. Ensure that nothing was touching contacts.
Replaced the glass top onto cooktop
Put metal frame back in place and screwed in
Lifted entire cooktop, removed boards, and lowered back into place

Turn Circuit breaker off.Open the Oven door removed the 2 screws to the top surface. Disconnect the wire harness mark and remove the wires from the Old Element, removed the screws holding the element to top surface, Remove element replace with new element. Install wires, install screws, reconnect wire harness reposition surface. Reinstall screws and turn Circuit breaker power back on. Done and Done

Exact fit, but read the instructions! Male connectors on element are labeled 1A 1B 2A 2C, very faintly etched in the ceramic. Even though the old and new elements look the same (and I took photos to aid installation), the connector locations are different -- 1A on the old element is where 2B on the new one is, etc. Used included extension wire for one that would not reach with the new configuration and everything works perfectly.

Item looked exactly as part to be replaced. Knob lifted out, used pliers to remove rest of Knob assembly then lined up the Dr shapes on Knob and cook top and snapped into place. Took all of 30 seconds to do. Knob looks exactly the same as the Knob it replaced.

Used needle nose pliers to remove the remaining broken park from the D connector. Used a little pressure to install the new part on the connector.

We received the new knobs, they were a perfect fit. Installed in less than a minute! Looks like new.

Aligned the new knob with the cooktop socket and it went on easliy and has worked fine ever since. So thrilled we were able to replace the knob without having to buy an entire new cooktop. The new knob looks different but it is black and so is the cooktop and new cooktops now have different looking controls anyway. Thank you. You were a life saver!

Ordered a replacement grease filter.

First, the diagram on your website said remove two screws. The diagram looked like they were on the back of the stove on each side. On my stove there were three screws that were visible under the front lip upon opening the oven door. I removed the top, which comes completely off and set it aside. Be careful when removing the top. Don't drag it out, otherwise you'll tear up the asbestos around the other burners. Two people would be better for the inexperienced people. The new elements have been redesigned, so the diagram doesn't fit what you are looking at. Plus, the diagram on paper is looking underneath the element when you are looking down on the top of the element. I removed one wire and put it in the same spot on the new. Turned out it was not the element that was bad. It was a loose wire in the inside of the control panel.

raising the cook top on to 2x2s, one on each end, allowed me to remove the 9 sheet metal screws that keep the glass top fastened to the box containing all of the heating elements and controls. After removing the control knobs and the glass top, everything was clearly visible. Removing the four screws that hold the control box frame in place allowed me to turn the switches upside down and photograph the placement of all of the wires on the pins. I then transferred the wires from the old switch to what I thought were the corresponding pins on the new switch(the replacement switch has more pins, and they are not located in exactly the same spots as the old switch). When I turned the power back on, the switch turned the burners on, I had heat but the indicator lights didn't work. I turned the breakers back off and rewired according to a previous commentors wiring directions(his model was not exactly the same as mine), the indicators worked but I was back to no heat. I called my son, who has his own commercial electric company,and he looked at my photos from before, the diagram that came with the new switch, and it took him about 15 minutes to reconnect the pins to different wires and when we turned the power back on---both indicators and heating elements worked. It was the dual switch and double indicator that made it more complex to figure out. Nice to have very smart kids.

Just placed new filter in slot

just needed clearner for the top of my glass top, the operator was very helpful I received my clearniner in 7 days thank you

In these hard times it's hard to remodel a well needed room in the house, however we were able to find a brand new electric stove that was worth $600.00 but was on clearance for $150.00 because it was missing the knobs. Thankfully a good friend recommended that I look through your website and I found the knobs for under $50.00. Thanks to partselect I was able to get the electric countertop stove I wanted and saved hundreds of dollars !!!! Thanks partselect.

Simply removed old knob and replaced.

I used needle nose pliers to remove the broken piece then pushed the new knob on!!
