Gas Burner Cartridge not Sparking to Light.
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.

Replaced old Jenn Air cook top base
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.

No spark on right 2 burners, won't ignite
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.

Rubber grate pads that protect the range top had worn and were flat.
It didn't. The grate pads (PN# PS389174) were too small for the grate (W10311216) and wouldn't work. (PN# recommended by Whirlpool parts department) The pads were smaller in diameter and shorter. Yes I could have glued them in, but because of the size the pads would be flat in no time. The only thing I could order from KitchenAid was the total grate. I ordered the pads late December, they were backordered. I got them the 1st week of February. I tried getting through to Whirlpool by calling to see if there was something I could reorder, but no luck, couldn't through. Am I unhappy? Oh some, but I handle it. Its not the first time I have been rode hard and put away wet.

feet on gas stove top grates were gone
Very simple, cleaned out what was remaining of the old rubber feet and just pushed these in. I didn't bother glueing them in as I didn't feel they would fall out. If they do, I'll go out and obtain the glue that is mentioned by others in this thread. Very satisfied.

Removed old igniter set replaced with new one. Hardest part was using the screw driver to removing the backing. Saved us having to buy a new stove since we just bough the house.
