What to do if my Jenn-Air Ranges burner won't ignite?
- C
  Carrie Briggs MDAug 7, 2025
  If the burner on your Jenn-Air Ranges isn't igniting, several factors could be at play. First, ensure your range is receiving 120 VAC by verifying the voltage at the wall outlet. A dirty electrode or burner cap can also prevent ignition, so try cleaning them. Other potential causes include faulty wiring or a bad connection at the burner electrode and electrode socket, micro switch contacts not closing, or a non-operative spark module. Check the wiring against the appropriate wiring diagram to ensure all terminals and connections are correct and tight. If the electrode is cracked or broken, replace it. Check the module according to testing procedures information.

How to fix Jenn-Air Ranges burners that won't ignite?

  If the burners on your Jenn-Air Ranges aren't igniting and there's no spark, it could be due to several reasons. Start by cleaning the burner cap to ensure a good ground. Low gas pressure could also be the culprit; verify the pressure is 4" WCP for natural gas or 10" WCP for LP gas. Additionally, a clogged burner port can prevent ignition, so clean the burner cap. If these steps don't work, the spark module might be weak or has failed and should be replaced.

Why is my Jenn-Air Ranges bake element not working?
- R
  Rhonda FrancoAug 16, 2025
  If the bake element in your Jenn-Air Ranges isn't working, it could be due to an open bake element. Check the element for continuity and replace it if it has failed. Also, inspect for any loose or broken wire connections and ensure all connections are clean and tight, replacing any broken wires. Finally, verify 240 VAC at the bake element to check for an open bake relay.

What to do if my Jenn-Air Ranges oven won't bake or broil?
- M
  Michael SimonAug 21, 2025
  If your Jenn-Air Ranges oven isn't operating in bake or broil mode, begin by checking for 120 VAC at the control. If there's no voltage, check the power source. If there is voltage to the control but no voltage from control to the ignitor, the control may need to be replaced. Also, inspect for any loose or broken wires, ensuring all connections are clean and tight; replace any broken wires.

Why is there no spark on my Jenn-Air Ranges ignitor?
- B
  Brandon CastroAug 27, 2025
  If you're experiencing no spark or random sparks at one ignitor on your Jenn-Air Ranges, a few things could be the cause. Check for a cracked ignitor or pinched ignitor wire and replace the ignitor lead or electrode if needed. Poor continuity to the burner cap can also be an issue, so clean the burner cap and lead. Additionally, a bad ground connection or lack of continuity to ground or the ignitor can cause this problem. Tighten the ground connection and correct any breaks in the ground path from the ignitor path to the unit ground path. Finally, check for a cracked or broken ignitor extension lead and replace the ignitor lead if necessary.

What to do if Jenn-Air Ranges keeps sparking after being turned off?
- E
  Erik JacksonAug 31, 2025
  If your Jenn-Air Ranges continues to spark after the knob is turned to the OFF position, it could be due to a shorted valve switch or harness. In this case, replace the switch or harness. Also, check if the switch has slipped off the valve; carefully reposition the switch on the valve and rotate it from OFF to high several times to verify the switch is not broken.
