JGP328SEK1SS General Electric Cooktop - Instructions

First step is to turn off the electrical then disassemble the cook top. It is secured to pan by each of the burner mechanisms. Disconnect the spark wire from each porcelain drip pan. Separate the glass top from the pan. If it's stuck gently slide a putty knife int between the two to separate and carefully set the glass top aside. The spark module was a bit challenging in that the colors of the wires didn't match so if you aren't comfortable with electrical work I would get help. The module didn't fit the bracket so,I had to drill new holes and use self tapping screws to mount it. The other part part I intended to change was the spark igniter switch. Unfortunately the wiring was incompatible so I had to return that part. This top was sold by Kenmore but made by GE and is over 10 years old so I suspect an engineering change obsoleted my part. Overall the job wasn't that bad if you are reasonably mechanical..

Unplug!!
Pull knobs
Pull burner centers
Unscrew the nut at the center of each burner
Tilt cover up revealing under burner controls
Remove old harness
Install new harness
Reassemble in reverse order
Plug in NO ticking

Pulled out the old. put the new ones on. Easy

Replaced worn or missing Grate Foot with new ones. Took less than 5 minutes.

Inserted the grate foot into the spot provided; after consulting the parts manuel to insure I was using the proper procedure.

I do use silicone to help hold the foot but it still won't hold

Replaced starter switch harness as well as igniter module. Cost was around $70 for parts. Cheaper than a new cooktop.

the electrodes on this model have to be removed before you can raise cooktop, once cooktop is raised remove wire from burner bracket, use needle nose pliers to squeeze bottom of clip,remove &replace with new parts.

Replaced Spark Module and adjusted igniters

Cut off approx. 1/8" in length for correct fit.

REMOVE GRILL AND TOP OF BURNERS. CLEAN GUNK OUT OF TORQUE SCREWS AND TRIED TO REMOVE TOP PLATE. FOUND IGNITERS ALSO NEED TO COME OUT, THEY HAD HEAVY DEPOSIT,
BE CAREFUL. ONCE I GOT THEM OUT, JOB WENT WELL. NOTE
MAKE SURE ALL CONNECTION ARE CLEANED BEFORE REASSEMBLY.

It only required placing the new burner in the proper location.

there were no grate pads so it was easy to add them.

I had to drill the hole to a larger size to enable the foot to fit.

Nothing technical.

Start by removing all screws 3 for each burner total of 15 t-15 bit is required then proceed to remove spark igniters 5 total slight pull next step would be to slide a screwdriver under top left and right side to remove top shelf. There you will have access to the parts you need to replace. When done just reverse installation instructions to complete
