The paint begin popping of my original grill. My son had a friend that said that he could remove the old paint and repaint for me. Unfortunately in the shuffle of a motorcycle performance shop the grill was lost. I have been trying to get help from Jenn-Aire since March and they just kept saying th
Very simple for me!!! Open the box, uncover the new grill and lay it in its place.


Thank you so much!

The paint had chipped and peeled on the inlet grill
I lifted off the old grill and replaced them with the new ones. My stove top looks great again. If I could find them, I would like to replace the knobs to turn on the gas!

Replaced Burner Cartridge terminal Block
I found that the one of the burner Cartridge terminal blocks wiring was too short for my Jenn-Air JED8130. The original ones I removed had wiring that was 4" longer than the replacements. As a result, I could only replace 1 terminal block and had to re-use one of the old ones for the front 6" burner. The surface elements and drop bowls were easy and accurate.

Broken stem for control knob on Infinite switch .
Turned off the circuit breaker! Removed the four Phillips screws below the trim, parallel to and above the oven door; removed the trim, then the nut holding the switch (below the knob, removed). Replaced the terminal lugs one at at time from broken switch to new switch. Replaced new switch, nut, trim and screws. Pulled all four burners and replaced drip pans; replaced burners and replaced old control knobs with new knobs. A pleasure working with American made appliances designed to be repaired and not just thrown away! ( P.S.: Parts were delivered to but not for Derickson Lumber Co.) Dick Ford

Burner receptacle had malfunctioned and been removed
10 Minutes for a stove my landlord thought was not fixable (repairman had already cut the wires to the element and capped them)! The delivery person handed me the package, I got out the single tool needed, installed the part, put away the tool, cleaned my hands, and put a pot of water on the stove to boil for pasta. 10 minutes!

Electric surface burner would only turn very hot
Well, I had to search a bit deeper in the internet to find out that the problem was not with the surface burner (which did look a bit burned out anyway) but rather with the surface burner switch (Part Number: PS336885) which must have ben damaged by the heat of the closest burner. If this problem would have been better documented (or if I would have searched more carefully) I would have saved over $40 with parts (Surface Burner Receptacle Kit) that I didn't quite need. Repairing the switch was very easy, thanks also to the available video , even though the stove used on this video (front panel) didn't quite match mine (top-back panel).

Filter was very old and falling apart.
The grease filter was 20+ yrs old and the mesh was falling of the frame. I was very pleased to find this replacement filter (the first filter I received was damaged....placed a call to PartSelect and have a new one the next day). Can't beat service like that!! Thank you, June Patten
