replace element cartridge
I placed my order online and received the replacement parts the very next day - thank you so much!!
The hardest part of this repair job was removing it from the boxes! Pulling out the old cartridge and inserting the new was as easy as could be!

The Burners on the stove stopped working
I was told that we needed a new stove at an estimated cost of $3900. I decided to google the parts that were not working after I was able to identify the Part number & model. I was first advised to look at Lowes, which I did and was not successful. I did another web search the Part Select site came up. At first I was able to find the part, but the color. A simple phone call and a helpful (Human) voice at the other end gave me a new model number and in less than 5 minutes I had made my order. Total cost $368.00 including shipping and handling. My stove is working like new. Total savings $3500 and change. Satisfaction 100%. I have placed the web site in the must have category.

All four of the cooktop switch controls needed replacing since none would control their respective burner.
Turned off the power at the circuit breaker panel. Removed the control knobs from each switch and the four palnuts under each knob. Removed the two screws inside the vent well that hold the escutcheon in place. Pulled each switch up as much as possible to expose the wires attached underneath to each switch blade. Remoced each wire and replaced them on the new switch. Same procedure for all four switches. Reassembled in reverse order. Turned on power and all four burners lit up and were regulated as if new. I saved $244.00 doing the repair myself.

drain jar lids rusted and broken of their mounts
The lids are fastened to the underside of the unit by rivets....3 to each lid.
I used a cordless drill and small drill bit to drill through the rivets to remove the old lids and remains of the rivets.
The new lids are easily fastened back using a rivet gun ( about $20 in Lowes) using small 1/8th aluminum rivets.
No real problems.
1 thing to note is that the drill bit will pass through the old rivet by about 1/4 inch before it comes up against the upper level of the BBQ floor so do not drill any deeper.The aluminum rivets are easy to drill through and you will easily feel when the rivet is drilled through.

1 element of a 4 element burner worked
There was no tools required with this job. I had to remove the old elements from the stove top and replace them with the newly purchased ones from this site. The hardest part was to located the parts I needed. I went to Best Buy to purchase these and they said they no longer stock them. They quoted me double the price that I paid and I received them a lot faster this way and did not have to rely on them for help. I will recommend this site to all my friends.

Element wouldn't regulate; always on high
We turned off the breaker and removed the screws holding the control panel in place. They are behind in the exhaust area.
The control unit was lifted up to reveal all of the wires and the switches. Using pliers I pulled off the connectors keeping up with which wire was from which connector. The switch then dropped out and the new one went in and wires were reconnected.
It was not difficult. Only challenges were that it was very dense and hard to get at the wires and you had to be careful to keep up with the wire locations.
Well worth the time...I can do something other than boil water on that burner!!

One burner ,of a 2 burner cartridge, was burned out. I called an appliance dealer. no help. Went on line, typed in Jenn-air cooktopand several choices came up. Clicked on yours, went thru about375 parts. Spotted what I thought was was the right one. Called in. It had three flat prongs and one ro
I lifted the old old cartridge on one end and slid it out. Then I shoved new cartridge in place, tried the burners. Perfect! Saved me from getting a entire new cooktop. Would recommend PartSelect to anyone looking to repair an old stove.

Reusable Grease filter was old and worn out.
The Model number could no longer be read clearly on the stove electric grill with a down draft vent system, so all I had was the size and looks of the old grease/air filter. I was very happy to come across Parts Select by way of an amazon.com search. Their web site's design and the parts pictures with detailed descriptions made it easy to find exactly what I needed. The grease filter fit perfectly in no time. I have successfully used my cooking grill again.

two burners had failed to work properly. Always went to full heat.
I first removed power from the stove at the breaker panel. Next, I used the assembly diagrams provided by the parts select website to determine how to open up the stove panel. I opened the oven door to access the four screws holding the front panel holding the knobs. I removed the screws and was able to tilt up the front panel to allow access to the four burner switches. It was easy to swap out the wires on the old defective switch to the new replacement switches. I replaced both defective switches in 15 minutes and tiled the front panel back down into its normal position and put the four screws back into the panel to secure it. Then I turned on the breaker and did a check to see that the parts I replaced were working properly. They were and the total repair time was around 30 minutes without rushing at all.
