Cooktop kept clicking, going on and off when cooking.
Turned the circuit breaker off to ensure no power to the cooktop. Cleared all items in cabinet before accessing the control box where the board power univ. assembly was. 1/4" sock to back off six screws. Took many pictures of the unit inside.

Pulled box down and disconnected two green grounding cables using a 1/4" socket, again taking pictures to ensure I place the cables in the exact position as it is a tight fit. Unplugged cable connections (be careful as they are tough to disconnect from the bottom of the cooktop) and noted direction and orientation of wires to ensure the new board went int the exact same way. Squeezed the post clips that held the board the backplate.
Installed new board, pushing the post clips back in) be careful not to break them as they are made of plastic and can be broken easily. Reconnected cable connections and reinstalled the zip ties to ensure no cable are pinched when you place the board housing back in place. Reconnected the two grounding cables and ensure they go in the right direction as it is a tight fit in the box assembly. Now this was the hard part.
Putting the board housing back in place and lining up the holes for the six screws. This took some time to do as the new cable wires are new and a little stiff. Had to ensure that no wires were pinched and the cardboard walls where in the right place. Finally, was able to line up one hole a drive home the screw. From there I was able to use gentle force to line up the rest of the holes.
Once that was done and I checked the no wires were protruding out; I cleared out my tools and turned the circuit breaker back on. I tested each setting on the cook top and turned all burners on at the same time. Problem solved and with solid results. Cooktop now working very well and no issues.

Lightning strike blew out my GE cooktop
Wife said cooktop was not working. I cut power and dropped the cover on the electronics box under the burners and could see it was burnt up. Looked like it would be hard to fix so I ordered a new cooktop. However, they couldn't place order until they measured - and that would not be for a week. So, I thought I would order the circuit
... Read moreboard to see if I could replace it. Parts Select had good links to appliance parts so ordering was easy. Needed help to pull out the cooktop and flip it over but switching in the new board was relatively easy although there were lots of connectors to keep straight. Turned it on and it worked like new and cancelled order. Saved $1300 and was a hero.

Hi Anthony,

The eyes come on then go off while cooking. After that, they will not come back on. None of them turn on after this happens. When the top cools off, it may come back on, or it may take until the next day. It will then will do the same thing. Can you help?

Hello Danny,
Thanks for your question. This could be a problem with the control board itself, though you may also want to test each element for continuity with a multimeter, and replace any that do not show electrical continuity.
I hope this helps.
I have a GE profile cooktop pp975sm3ss. The lights on the cooktop panel light up when i turn on the heating elements. Although none of the heating elements heat up. This is the case for all elements. 220 power is on at the cooktop. I am thinking it is either the daughter board or the main board. Is their a way to narrow it down to one or the other as the problem? Thx paul

Hello and thank you for writing.
It certainly sounds like it could be a faulty main PS1481066or daughterboard PS1481205the only sure way to know which one is faulty would be to check the part(s) for signs of damage, such as shorts which will show in black burn marks or test with a multimeter, and replace the part(s) as needed. However, you should consider that one or more of the elements PS2321558 has gone faulty as this will also cause these symptoms. Again you would need a multimeter for continuity testing, which is easier to diagnose than a problem with the boards themselves. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.
we lost power during severe weather and when electrical power came back on our stovetop does not work. none of the controls will not light nor any of the burners heat up. I've had the stovetop for 12 years and this is the first trouble I've had. Check the breaker and everything ok.

Hi Billy, thank you for reaching out. If your cooktop does not work after a power surge, the most likely cause is a shorted control board. To fix the issue, you may need to check the following parts: the relay control board, part number PS1481205, and the main control board, part number PS1481066. We hope this solves your problem!
