JED8130ADB17 Jenn-Air Cooktop - Instructions

Did not need tools for this job. Simply lift burner element and remove old drip pan and put new one in its place. However - the drip pans that were shipped only fit on the left side of the range. The right side, where the grill attachment goes, is so shallow that the drip pans on that side hit the bottom plate beneath the burner element and would not let the element go down far enough to seat properly. I kept the two pans that don't fit for extras, but I still need shallower pans to fit on the right side.

This was so easy. I've looked for years in stores for these pans. I finally tried the Internet, found PartSelects and, holding my breath at what i'd find, voila'...perfect fit, perfect replacements. And it took just a couple days to arrive. I'll definately be back!

After examining the burner unit I noticed that one of the male contact spades was burned and look deformed. After removing the spade I discovered that it had been originally manufactured incorrectly. I went on line to try and find the part. I found it at this site . I ordered 2 of the spades and replaced the deformed spade and another one that looked like it had gotten a little hot. She tried the unit and it worked perfectly. She had not used that burner unit for a very lengthy time. The investigation of the problem took a little time, but the repair went very fast. Moral is :" If a spade doesn't look right, it probably isn't", but either the individual spade or plug can be replaced. This site is now my "GO TO" place for parts.

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.

dissembled the burner, remove the broken blocpk and bad spade.rewiered and assembled the burner.

THIS WAS A STOVE TOP BURNER ELEMENT ///
THE OLD ONE JUST FELT APART AND A NEW ONE WAS\NEEDED. i USED THE PHONE # GIVEN INSTEAD OF USING MY
COMPUTER ... AND THAT WAS A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE
TALKING TO A LIVE PERSON WHO WAS VERY PLEASANT
AND HELPFUL. i WISH i'D WRITTEN DOWN HER NAME.
NOTHING LIKE "LIVE COMMUNICATIONS" i CAME FROM
THE DEPRESSION ERA... WHEN PEOPLE STILL TALKED TO
ONE ANOTHER RATHER THAN HAVING THEIR HEADS BPWED
DOWN TO THE CELL PHONES! O WELL..THAT'S PROGRESS!

just replaced by hand .

Replaced the drip pans

Pulled out the old burner and plugged in the new!

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

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

old filter fell into from removing and cleaning,
removed cover pulled out filter ,replaced it with new one.

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.

I just lifted out old filter, and put in new one.

Removed old filter, dropped in the new one.
(This really was not a "repair")
