If the top burners on your GE Ranges do not light or burn evenly, ensure the electrical plug is fully inserted into a properly grounded outlet. Also, the burner slits might be clogged, so remove and clean them, checking for food or grease. Ensure proper burner assembly. If using LP gas, contact your installer for air to gas ratio adjustments.
What to do if the GE Ranges oven door won't open after cleaning?
If the GE Ranges oven door will not open after a clean cycle, it is likely that the oven is still too hot. Allow the oven to cool down below the locking temperature. Remember not to lock the door with the door latch unless you are using the self-clean feature.
Why does “LOCK DOOR” flash on my GE JGBP86 display?
If you see “LOCK DOOR” flashing on the display of your GE Ranges, it means the self-clean cycle is active, but the door isn't fully closed, or the latch isn't correctly positioned (on models with a latch). Close the oven door completely, and if your model has a latch, move it all the way to the right.
What does it mean when the locked door light is on when I want to cook in my GE JGBP86 Ranges?
If the locked door light is on when you want to cook with your GE Ranges, it means the oven door is locked because the internal temperature is still above the locking threshold. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad and allow the oven to cool down. If your model has a door latch, unlock it once the oven has cooled.
What to do if my GE JGBP86 oven is not clean after the clean cycle?
If your GE Ranges oven is not clean after running a clean cycle, ensure that the oven controls were set correctly. It's also possible that the oven was heavily soiled. Clean up any significant spills before starting the clean cycle. For heavily soiled ovens, you may need to run the self-clean cycle again or for a longer duration.
Why is my GE JGBP86 Ranges producing excessive smoke?
Excessive smoking from your GE Ranges might be caused by excessive soil. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad, open windows to clear the smoke, and wait for the LOCKED DOOR light to turn off. Then, wipe up the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.
What to do if the display goes blank on my GE Ranges?
If the GE Ranges display goes blank, it might be due to a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker in your home. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker to resolve this issue.
Why isn't food broiling correctly in my GE JGBP86 Ranges upper oven?
If food does not broil properly in the upper oven of your GE Ranges, make sure you touch the BROIL HI/LO pad to set the oven controls correctly. Ensure the oven door is closed. Use the correct shelf position. Cook food in a cool broiling pan and grid that came with your range, and use cookware suitable for broiling. If using aluminum foil, ensure it is properly fitted and slit as recommended. Also, make sure the oven bottom is securely seated.
Why isn't food baking or roasting properly in my GE JGBP86 Ranges upper oven?
If food does not bake or roast properly in the upper oven of your GE Ranges, there might be several reasons. You may need to check the oven controls, shelf position, and the type or size of cookware being used. The oven thermostat might need adjustment, or the clock may not be set correctly. Ensure aluminum foil is used properly and the oven bottom is securely seated.
Why is there excessive condensation in my GE JGBP86 Ranges drawer?
If you notice excessive condensation in the drawer of your GE Ranges, it could be due to liquid in the drawer, uncovered foods, or a temperature setting that is too high. Remove any liquid, cover the food with a lid or aluminum foil, and reduce the temperature setting.
