C221-C Jenn-Air Cooktop - Instructions

After a long time being without a working stovetop-an electrician friend said we needed to change a switch-it was ordered and came very quickly and installed-then it was determined that we needed a switch for the other side of the stovetop-I ordered it and got it the next day! It was a joy cooking thanksgiving dinner on a stove that worked-and I have a new friend that is interested in seeing me on a more regular basis. I know if I needed any kind of parts, I would check with partselect first ;)

I ordered part one day, recieved part the next day. I installed it the next day. It worked perfect. THANK YOU!

The repair was easy. First, I turned off cooktop circuit breaker. Then, removed the burner switch panel and the nut securing burner switch to panel. Disconnected the wiring and refit with new switch. Install switch panel and turned power back on. Now it's time to cook some dinner. Let's eat. :)

I used process of elimination to figure out the issue with my 28 year old Jenn-Air cooktop. Issue: One day while cooking there was a loud pop & from then the front burner no longer had any temp control & only heated to full blast plus. Steps to fix: 1) Replaced the surface burner elements PS2195246 - this didn't fix the issue but they look nicer now. This was a simple plug in - no tools needed. 2) Replaced the grill side with a 2 burner plug in part PS1941381. Also simple plug in with no tools required. This didn't fix the isssue & I found that the front burner on the new unit also had no temp control. 3) Replaced the Surface Burner Receptacles for the 2 original burners PS1570190. This required turning off the breaker, removing the cooktop by unscrewing all the little screws & then cutting the old connections with wire cutters and wiring the new parts in with wire nuts & electrical tape. It took maybe half an hour but did not fix the issue. 4) Replaced the Surface Unit Infinite Switch Kit PS2076107 for the front 2 burners. Removed the screws just for the center control panel (after turning off the breaker) then took a picture of the wire configuration & removed the old parts by pulling (hard) at the connections until they unplugged. Put the new part in with the same wire placement. This finally fixed the issue & we now have 4 working burners for the first time in the >1 year that we have lived in this house.

Removed cook top top to get to wire harness and receptacle replaced and put back. This was not hard to do took about an hour. Parts came in on time and were the right parts.

I purchased a replacement. I unplugged the cooktop. Unscrewed the little instrument panel and pulled it out. Turning over the panel, I noted the wires to the switch and photographed them in case I need to check them later. I pulled them off of the old, broken switch and put them onto the new switch, one at a time so that I couldn't get them messed up. Once all of the wires were switched, I removed the old switch and put on the new one. I then plugged in the model and tested the switch. It worked perfectly! IMPORTANT: I then tried to slide the panel back into the cooktop but forgot to unplug it first. This was a huge mistake, causing a nasty flash of electricity and smell. I unplugged the cooktop, put the panel back in, and replugged the cooktop. It worked, fortunately. Moral: ALWAYS unplug the damned cooktop when working on it!

Wife installed them, they just snap into place on the Rock Grate.

Unfortunately it was the wrong part I replaced the infinite switch and had the same problem so I am still trouble shooting but I plan to continue to use parts select they are excellent to work with and very quick to deliver parts

Simply pulled the old filter out and put the new filter in.

Turn off the power!!! Remove two screws from back of switch section and pull toward you. That was the tricky part; it wasn't obvious to me how to remove the section. Then simply revmove the witres from the old switch one by one and put them on the new part. Close it up and you're good to go.

I switched the circuit breaker off at the electrical panel, removed the burner switch assembly (two screws) from the cook top. The burner switches are held in place by a single nut over the control stem. I unscrewed the nut from the failed switch, disconnected the four electrical leads (one by one) from the old switch and connected them in the same position on the new switch and replaced the nut. The clips on the electrical leads were oxidized/tarnished so I cleaned them with emery cloth to assure good contact with the posts on the switch. Replaced the burner switch assembly in the cook top, energized the circuit and the burner works perfectly again.

follow the EASY to read and understand instructions.replaced all 4 controls in about 35 min.

removed old motor from cooktop & motor housing & replaced w/ new motor & parts to install same. parts needed where screws & isolators (3).All went ok

Replaced surface unit infinite switch

Read privious fixes. Didn't know which control was bad but ordered two new ones. Marked locations of switch contacts and wire colors. Removed old controls. Installed new replacements and everything works fine. Thanks.
