JRP15BWB General Electric Range - Instructions

I took the old cap off, and replaced it with the new one. I am glad I had the sense to buy this online, If I had gotten a repairman to fix this, it probably would have costs $100.00 instead of the $17.00 it cost me to fix it myself. Thanks.

It took longer to go and buy the star tool then the repair. If you have the tools close it is a ten minute repair....

Unscrewed the broken door handle from the range with torqx bit, and replaced, hardest part was getting the plastic handle on the black pull bar. you may want to use a mallet.

This the second time in three years the end caps broke. The first time the replacement end caps slid right on but, this time it was an extreemly tight fit. I had to sprsy white greese on the handle bar and inside the end cap and, even then I thought the end caps would break it was so hard to get on.

Repair was basically simple. Remove 6 screws holding door facing on door, remove one screw holding handle end caps in place. Then reverse the operation installing handle end caps. The problem I had was that the new a end caps had different dimensions than the old ones and the handle wouldn't slip into them. Had to carve away material inside the new caps with an exacto knife in order to fit the handle. The result was a 15 minute job took well over an hour

repair was easy and the video was very good. My only problem, I had to go buy a tool, I did not have a nut driver.

The reason the brackets didn't go on to the handle far enough was there was a molding defect inside one of the brackets. After alot of scraping at the inside of the bracket and lightly tapping with a soft hammer I was able to get the defective bracket on so that the holes lined up to the mounting plate. As for the extra nipples I had two options. Either cut the nipples off or drill some holes in the metal plate that the brackets attach to. I chose the latter. I had to attach the brackets to the plate with extra long screws, reach in under the bracket with a scribe and mark the nipple location on the plate. Then I removed the handle and drilled two holes for each bracket. After some minor adjustments to the holes I was able to attach both brackets and reassemble the oven door.

removed the broken parts and screwed on the new parts.

Very detailed repair instructions on internet made installation of new end caps a job not needing a professioal.

The video was very helpful.Very easey repair

Using a torx screwdriver, I removed the old handle bracket. I had to be careful not to lose a metal spacer that went between the back of the door front panel and the back of the inside door panel. With the door in full open position, I was able to hold this spacer in my thumb and fore finger while I removed the screw. The broken portion of the handle bracket fell to the floor. With the old handle removed, I placed the screw through a hole in the inside panel, through the spacer and through a hole in the front panel. While holding the front pull bar in the right handle bracket, I placed the new bracket on the bar holding it in position on the door and attaching the screw. Easy peasy!

This repair was super easy. I removed the two screws holding the oven sensor in place, pulled the sensor from the oven wall to expose the two wires attached to the sensor cut and spliced in the new sensor as per instructions. The supplied wiring kit made this splice very easy. I then reinserted the wires and sensor from the oven wall, put the screws back in place tested the oven. Oven now works like new and I got bonus points from a happy wife!

unscrewed broken end cap, removed from handle and replaced the new end cap

Slide oven door off slides and put oven door on table. Removed 2 torx-20 screws from top of oven door on the inside. Remove 4 sheet medal screws from the bottom of door 1/4' socket heads. The inside of the door will now separate from the front of door.Now you can see 2 screws on each side of the door handle end caps on 1/4 " socket heads. Remove the 2 screws on which ever side is broken and remove old end cap and side new one on an install 2 screw. When you put door back together there are 2 spring steel spacers that fall off the top 2 screws that hold the inside and outside at the proper space! Parts Select service is EXCELLENT!!!!!

After turning off power, I removed the two screws and pulled the element and wires out, removed the wires and then attached them to the new element and replaced the screws. However, this did NOT correct the problem. The broiler did not work until I tried several times turning it on and off. It then worked once but then did not. It worked once more after several tries. I then called a repairman suspecting the control board. He confirmed this and tested the old element which was in good working order after all. A new board has been ordered.
