Lift out sealed burner assembly rear of stove first while careully sliding to rear to disengage ignitor probes.Remove philips head screws from bottom sheet metal housing to expose bottom of burners Remove gas tube assembly screws and move tube away carefully.Unplug wires from ignitor.Remove screws for ignitor .Remove ignitor, I noticed that rust and dirt had built up around burner to pan connection.I used my oil filter wrench to turn slightly the burner to remove it from the pan to clean.Reassembled in reverse order.

Take a few screws off the back of the slide in burner module. Take off the back. Unscrew the ignitor screw, remove ignitor carefully, replace with the new ignitor, put the screw back in, put the back back on, try it out! Ours worked after a couple of tries - don't know if the ignitor had to "rev up" by several sparks or we just didn't have it properly installed at first. Anyway, very easy. Did it in my pajamas on a Saturday morning.

The primary spark igniters failed. Take the (small) screws out of the sides and bottom of the pan. The front of the pan must be removed from the bottom, because the front burner igniter wire is too short to allow reassembly once attached. Only other is the screws for the attachment bracket are larger than the holes. Suggest routing them out slightly to get them to grip the screws. Otherwise it is quite simple. Pull the connections with a needlenose and press the new wire connection back on firmly. Screw the screws back in the pan.

I had to unscrew 4 screws on the burner unit and then 2 screws on each igniter. slip the olds out and the new ones in and then replace all the screws. And wa la they sparked and I was cooking again.

Even though the ceramic insulator looked new (white), it had become non-functional, replacement was simple, 2 phillips screws, reassemble and test. Now I will have to order the other 3.

I used the other good burner assembly to isolate the problem to the igniters or the igniter block. I ordered both parts from Parts Select. They shipped the parts promptly and after 10 minutes of install time, the burners worked flawlessly.
Thank You Parts Select.

The flame holder twists about 1/2 inch to left and lifts off. I removed the two screws that holds the igniter on and removed it and installed the new igniter.
There was one complication: when I put it back together, there was no spark. I removed the ground wire and cleaned and scraped it and replaced it and still no spark. But, for no apparent reason the spark returned and has been okay since.

Simply remove the box containing the two right burners. Access the igniter by removing about 8 screws and pull the coupler for the igniter off with a pair of needel nose pliers. Replace with new igniter using the same tool. Re-assemble the box by screwing in the screws and give it a try. Worked great. Once slight hitch, be sure you don't leave a second screw driving in the box. As it will raddle. So I had to remove and reassemble twice. I'm not a surgeon! Thanks for the fast delivery!

Watched u tube video as supplied and followed instructions. Had trouble getting burners off so cleaned around edge of burners with fine bladed knife as suggested by other forum user and used oil filter type wrench to remove burner. There are three bumps on burner that hold it in place so need to turn anti clockwise to remove.

This cartridge fits my JennAir Downdraft Slide In Rage, part No. JDS9865BDP. The burner cartridge replaces a downdraft cooking grill module that comes with the original stove/Oven.
The spark quit on the cartridge side. I re-inserted the original cooking grill, and it lit fine. There are two components to look at. The sparker, and the burner igniter (one per each burner). Since both failed to light, I ordered the spark controller.
PartSelect has a video on how to test for failure, but I couldn't find that again.
Two screws mount the controller, two wires re-connected. and works perfect.

First I did was to google the problem I have. There several video how to solve the problem. It show me different ways to solve my problem. I just follow the instructions. Thank to google without it, I am lost. I may add, that google is a big saver for me.

Removed Stove cartridge from stove-top.

Unfastened bottom screws, I recall 6.

Removed cover.

Removed two screws to igniter.

Used needle nose pliers to remove connectors x 2.

Had to drill to enlarge the mounting screws to new ignitor, then screwed it in place

Connected the two wires to each igniter.

Replaced cover n screws.
Reinstalled cartridge.

Bingo

I replace the igniter first that didn’t work so I had to order the wiring and then I replaced that there was a cover that I took off with a screwdriver took the wiring off and put the new wiring in it it was that easy.

Remove the 2 burner assembly by gently lifting the rear burner and pull towards the back of the stove and the entire 2 burner assembly will slide out. Turn assembly up side down, remove all the screw on the cover with a philip screwdriver and remove cover. Once opened, you will see the ignighter, remove the 2 screws holding it in place, remove and replace the ignighter and secure with two screws. Follow the 2 lead wires and remove and replace with the new wires, simply pull off old and push on new wires. Replace the cover and all the screws, slide it back onto the stove and you will have ignition! Simple install, takes about 20-30 minures. If both burners are out, this is probably the problem. If only 1 burner is out, you probably need to replace the stove burner spark.

Prepare a flat area with newspaper, a screwdriver, and a small bowl for the screws, and a small wire brush (if you want to clean as you go). I also recommend taking photos as you proceed, for reference.

ALSO, take close note of the orientation of the cook top base, one end has a lip that's allows for burner assembly removal.

Remove entire two burner assembly, place upside down on newspaper, remove seven Phillips screws, remove assembly bottom.

Remove small screws from gas tubes, pay close attention as you remove the gas tube from the bottom of the burner, to the orientation of the two washers (the washers have an edge).

Remove the burner tubes and washers.

Carefully remove the igniter connectors from igniter.

Remove the end of the assembly.

Grasp the burners, and turn to rotate the burner to a position where the "bumps" on the burner match up with the gaps in the burner cook base. Remove the burners.

The old burner base can be set to the side. At this time i cleaned the burners throughly with a small toothbrush size wire brush.

Assemble the burners to the new top base by aligning the bumps to the opening in the cook top base, turn slightly to keep burner in place. Insert the gas tubes, with the washers (be careful about the washer lip orientation) with the smaller screws, do not overtighten!

Attach the igniter connector to the igniters.

Align the burner/gas tubes with the assembly end. Carefully set the base into place, adjust the tubes as necessary to get the screws aligned with the holes. Install the screws, tighten hand tight.

Install entire assembly into cook top, check igniter and burner operation.

Glass cleaner is great for cleaning the new porcelain surface.
