JGD8130ADS Jenn-Air Cooktop - Instructions

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

The available replacement switch is a bit too large to fit into the hole on the original face plate which must be kept as it also mounts the 4 burner dials and the “on” light.
A local machine shop was able to make the original hole large enough to accommodate the new switch. Total time to detach and reassemble the original face plate, less than 2 hours. Other than the new switch being black, it looks original. (The 2 smaller face plates provided with the new switch were not needed.)

To gain access to the burner, the bottom of the double burner unit had to be removed (7 screws). Once this was achieved, it was a simple matter of removing the old burner head which is captured with three lobes that engage the unit much like a thread,(which in my case was stuck in because of rust and had to be persuaded with a pipe wrench). The new burner was installed with hand pressure only, and once the gas flange was remounted and the ignitor hooked up, I just re-attached the bottom of the unit and viola!

New burner and igniter.....actually it was very easy to to fix

Twisted and lifted off the burner, loosened in a previous repair; removed electrical wires from igniter; undid two screws holding igniter in place; rotated igniter 90 degrees and lifted it out; reversed process with new igniter.3

As described for the part. Easy repair. Easy to diagnose thanks to feedback from another customer of yours. Part was received super fast.

I thought it was probably a bad ground due to corrosion on the igniter from spilled stuff over the years. I replaced the igniter and the burner. It did not work. I pulled out the multimeter to check for ground. It seems to be ok except at the bottom of the burner where it is supposed to be. Took it all apart and reassembled. Same thing. So, I swapped the dual burner assemblies around (right to left and left to right side). Bingo, both front & back, both sides worked. I still think there was a grounding issue. But all is good now. This project should have taken 15 minutes.

The original fan switch for down draft stove top was discontinued! I found a replacement switch which worked just fine! I received switch and 2 different type replacement plates! One an exact match! Switch different but worked fine! I had to make no modification! Changed I'm about 10 minutes! I was lucky from what I read on other customers' responses!! They wouldn't promise me it would work!!

Removed old igniter. Porcelain was broken. Replaced with new igniters. Really simple to do. Took 10 minutes to replace all 4

I removed the protective grid over the filter and fan, turned the clip that held the filter in place and removed it. I placed the new intact filter for my antiquated Jenn-aire in its place, replaced the protective grid, and am happily continuing to cook on my functional cook top.Thank you.

Removed burner pan screws,igniters, gas tubes & burners. Changed 2 igniters, removed rust & repainted ends of 2 of the tubes (heatproof paint). New burners were made a hair smaller than original but locked in O.K...Now, the hard part...disconnected all four tubes from gas valve assembly. (Had to shut off gas to house in order to remove main gas line to stovetop.) Had to remove valve box in order to remove/replace frozen valve. Unit is 25 years old, works as and looks new...Rust was caused by boil-overs.

Unscrew the bottom cover, remove the old ignitor. Reverse the process to install. Hardest part was getting the bottom cover screws out because of rust. Otherwise, very simple.

I was able to order the part I needed. The faulty pad had a broken stem.Several pads came in a bag so if I have the problem again I will have the parts on hand. I bought some RTV glue suitable for items at high temperatures; used a probe to make sure the hole in the grate was clear and clean and glued the new pad in place.
