Drip pans were in need of replacement
No brain surgery required. Removed electric burner, put in new drip pans. Voila! Good for many more years of service looking like new.

The original grease filter was damaged in our dishwasher (it is quite fragile) and needed to be replaced.
1. Remove the exhaust vent cover, located in the center of the top of the range. It just lifts off.
2. Swivel the clamp 90 degrees to release the filter.
3. Remove the filter and throw it away
4. Place new filter in place and lock in place by rotating the swivel clamp back 90 degress.
5. Replace the exhaust vent cover

lost one of the knobs
Ordering and installing was easy. The hardest part was getting the exact match to 20 yr. old appliance knobs. First one I ordered had wrong shaft hole, but it matched perfectly in design. Decided to reorder and just replace all four with matching new-style knobs and the correct shaft hole. Yeah. Looks great and REALLY easy to install.

Elec. stove-top knobs (imprinted with HI to LO numbers 1 to 10)worn to non-readable.
Knobs sent fit the shafts, but due to molded internal stop wouldn't seat. Had to drill out the stop, and also file down the shafts a bit for knobs to seat acceptably closer to stove-top.

Change the Oil/Grease Filter
It is so easy. Once I found the right size of filter from the website, I ordered it right away. It came in 3 days and I just need to take out the old one and insert the new one. No instruction is necessary. By the way, the price of the filter is one third of that from Jenn-air.

Over the years the numbers has worn off the knobs.
Fed-Ex delivered the package and within 10 min I had open the package, removed the old knobs and installed the new ones, My wife was very impressed with the ease of the transactionl. It is good to know that we can still get parts for our cook top even though it is 26 years old. Thanks for every thing.

burned oven bulb
The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.

My drip pans had rusted and I had a hole in one of them.
I just pulled the electric element out of the slot and dropped the drip pan in place and slipped the electric element back in place and it was ready to go. It looks almost new. We built a new house in 95. It took 17 months to build it. I got the stainless steel cook top that you can have the grill on one side or you can pull the grill off and slip in the burners. It is only 4 burners but it is plenty to work with. It has a down draft.

Knobs were worn and illegible
Removed the old ones and snapped on the new.
It was a snap and what a difference! Even though the cooktop is over 20 years old, it looks new again. Thanks to the knowledgeable support people at Part Select.Com we picked the right knobs the first time.

20 year old countertop - dials unreadable
Two dials available, chose the wrong one, PartSelect paid to have the wrong ones returned and issued credit, while helping to select the correct ones. Friendly, REAL people, who absolutely sealed the deal. I'll always check here first for parts, filters, anything. Thanks PartSelect
