AC11 - Instructions

Removed screws by drilling one and using a pliers to remove 2nd one. At first did not have enough wire to pull recepticles out until I relized wires were clipped to back of range to hold in place. Unclipped wires, pulled recepticles out, cut wires and attached new recepticles by connecting wires with wire nuts (I think wire nuts were to ... Read more small so I used my own a size larger). Another problem that I found was that the recepticles on my range were held in place only by the screws that attached the recepticles to the drip pan flang. I had to bend an L bracket to prop under each recepticle to hold the back of it up so the burner element would sit level over the drip pan.

pulled he cooktop, replaced the recepticles, reassembled.

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 ... Read more were easy and accurate.

The repair itself is really quite easy. Cut the wires, strip the ends and attach the new receptacle with wire nuts. The hard part was getting to it. My cooktop is about 30 years old, so I had to wade through piles of nasty built up grease. Some of the sheet metal screws were unworkable, so I had to cut them off with a Dremel tool. Not ... Read more a pretty picture, but that's how repair work is on old stuff.

used drill to remove old screw

I was unable to remove the screw which held the electrical element.. so I took the new surface burner receptacle and removed the metal part, and used the old one and put in the new one in the old metal part and rewired, and it is like new.. now I need to do another one.

New receptacle element. I am a girl and I did it.!!!!

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!

It was simple! The range looks so much better!

It was so easy to order a new one from your company. And it arrived in less than a week! I slipped it into the electric outlet and it worked perfectly. THANKS. Wanda Major

plugged it in to the spot where missing element was.

I pulled the old one out and installed the new one. Never broke a sweat.

Took out of package and plugged in. turned on. It took 5 minutes.

easy, drop in

The repair only took me 10 minutes to do. I purchased the surface replacement kit from partselect.com. The part arrived in two days. The instructions were very simple. I read the instructions on line during my purchase. When I received the new part, I simply did the repair. Including shipping, the cost was less than $20.00. A service call ... Read more would have been at least 5x the cost. Thank you for being there Partselect. (Tim from south bend indiana)
