Hello there
I will answer this in 2 sections for testing the burners and the thermostate
Surface Burner Testing:

In order to test the surface burner on your electric range, the following steps should be taken:

1. Before repairs or testing can begin you must disconnect the electricity at the fuse panel, at the circuit breaker panel, or by pulling the plug. Make sure the power is off before proceeding. A jolt from 220 volts can be fatal, use caution!



2. Remove the surface burner from the stovetop. On most electric ranges this can be done by pulling the burner up and out of its plug-in receptacle. Other models have the burner directly wired to the cooktop. To remove this type of burner, undo the screw that secures the burner to the cooktop, remove the clips that secure the insulators to the burner terminals, and carefully unscrew the wires from the terminals. Take care not to bend these terminals.



3. Visually inspect the burner - often there will be small holes or bubbles on the surface of a defective element.



4. Now that you have removed the burner, you can test it using your VOM. Using the ohmmeter function, set the range scale to R x 1 and touch the test leads to the two burner terminals. The VOM should show continuity. Typical burner readings should be somewhere between 19 and 115 ohms, depending on the range manufacturer. If there is no continuity, the burner is defective. To test for a grounded (or shorted) burner, place one test lead on the outside surface of the burner and the other test lead on each burner terminal in turn. If there is continuity at either terminal, the burner is defective.



5. If the burner is defective, replace with a new one by reversing the removal procedure (step 2 above). If replacing a wired-in burner, make sure that you install the wires on the correct terminals, according to the wiring diagram

Oven Thermostat Testing:

An oven thermostat is a switch that opens and closes in response to the temperature it senses. It is typically found in the control panel, where a liquid-filled temperature-sensing bulb senses and maintains the internal oven temperature by cycling heat on and off.

1. Before repairs or testing can begin you must disconnect the electricity at the fuse panel, at the circuit breaker panel, or by pulling the plug. Make sure the power is off before proceeding. A jolt from 220 volts can be fatal, use caution!



2. Access the oven thermostat, which is located in different places depending on the make and model:
   1. On freestanding ranges, access the thermostat by removing the screws that hold the back panel in place at both ends.
   2. On models with front-loading controls, remove the panel and tilt it for access. Be careful not to let the wires disconnect from their components.
   3. Some built-in models have a removable backsplash. Lift the backsplash, rest it on the cook top and remove the screws from the backsplash, which holds the rear panel.
   4. On wall ovens or eye-level ranges, access the control panel by opening the door and removing the screws that secure it. The screws may be under the exhaust hood or below the control panel. If the control panel is hinged, simply tilt it towards you.
   5. On some models both the rear and front control panels must be removed. The screws may be found on the trim and occasionally the trim must be removed.
   
   
   
3. When testing the thermostat switch contacts for continuity, refer to the wiring diagram and remove only those wires being tested - and only one pair at a time. Test switch contact terminals as per your wiring diagram. If the switch lacks continuity at any of the contact terminal points then the entire thermostat switch needs to be replaced.

   Adjusting the thermostat:
   

4. Test the oven temperature by placing the tester in the oven's center and leaving it for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Record the minimum and maximum temperatures of three cycles, then add those figures together, divide the result by six and you have the oven's average temperature.



5. If the average temperature is more than 25 degrees off, try calibrating the thermostat by following your appliance manual instructions for thermostat calibration.

Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote that will help figure out why the burner spark keeps on clicking...

1st remove the control knob by off position & pull it one by one then clean it by using vacium.tnx

Hello
That sounds like the electric sending unit to the ignitor are not working properly, they are located under the knobs on the sitch rod. a small ceramic piece with 2 wires, very inespensive and easy to change.

A) https://hobguide.com/induction-hob-cannot-detect-pan/ B) https://hobguide.com/induction-hob-not-working-on-one-side/ You are advised to not try to get into the electronics of the induction hob. Such is dangerous. The unit uses 3 phase electricity, something unlikely to be addressed by DIY activity if you want to be safe. Check your warranty. I assume this is not a matter of pans of the wrong material or size being deployed. This well may require a technician to sort out. The brand/model has not been identified so I cannot direct you to further resources. Your user manual surely provides a company name where you might seek some customer support.

There seems to be quite a few ways... Check out these sites.. https://www.google.com/search?q=How+can+i+remove+a+stuck+venturi Best to you.

Based on the symptoms described, it is possible that the issue lies with the ceramic element that the burners connect to at the back of the burner unit. This could be causing a short circuit between the two burners, which is preventing the large burner from being adjusted lower when both burners are on. It is also possible that there is an issue with the wiring or connections between the two burners, which is causing a similar short circuit. However, given that the smaller burner appears to be working fine, this seems less likely. Another potential cause of this issue could be a problem with the control board or another component of the stove's electrical system. However, given that replacing the infinite switch and receptacle for the large burner did not resolve the issue, it seems less likely that this is the root cause. In order to determine the exact cause of this issue, it may be necessary to consult with a professional appliance repair technician who can diagnose and repair the stove.

If your ceramic cooktop model CEC70 is not turning off, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue: 1. Check the controls: Ensure that you have properly followed the instructions to turn off the cooktop. Some models may require you to press and hold a specific button or combination of buttons to power off the cooktop. Refer to the user manual for your specific model for detailed instructions on turning it off. 2. Power cycling: Try power cycling the cooktop by turning off the power at the circuit breaker or unplugging it from the power source. Leave it unplugged or with the power off for a few minutes before plugging it back in or turning the power back on. This can sometimes help reset the controls and resolve any temporary issues. 3. Control lock: Check if the cooktop has a control lock feature that might be activated. Some models have a lock function to prevent accidental changes to the settings. Look for a button or key combination that activates or deactivates the control lock. Refer to the user manual for instructions specific to your model. 4. Contact customer support: If the issue persists, it is recommended to reach out to the manufacturer's customer support or consult a professional technician who specializes in appliance repairs. They will be able to provide further guidance or arrange for a service visit to diagnose and fix the problem. Remember, when dealing with electrical appliances, it's always important to prioritize safety. If you encounter any unusual or potentially hazardous situations, such as smoke, sparks, or strong odors, immediately turn off the power supply and contact a professional technician for assistance.

o determine the specifications for the varistor to replace the one on your Iwatani induction cooktop, you will need to know the voltage rating and the maximum current the varistor can handle. One way to determine these specifications is to check the datasheet for the original varistor, which may be available from Iwatani or the varistor manufacturer. If you cannot find the datasheet, you can try measuring the resistance of the varistor with a multimeter, which can give you an idea of the voltage rating. However, keep in mind that the resistance may change as the varistor ages or if it has already failed. Additionally, you may need to know the peak current that the varistor can handle. This information may be available on the datasheet or on the original varistor if there are any markings left. If you cannot determine the peak current, a general rule of thumb is to choose a varistor with a maximum surge current rating that is higher than the maximum current that the circuit can deliver. It's important to choose a varistor with the correct voltage rating and peak current handling capability, as using an incorrect varistor can potentially cause further damage to your induction cooktop or pose a safety hazard

It is possible to remove the downdraft equipment from underneath your JennAir electric cooktop and still use the cooktop, but it depends on how the downdraft equipment is attached to the cooktop and whether there are any other issues that may arise from removing it. Before attempting to remove the downdraft equipment, you should consult the user manual or contact JennAir customer service to ensure that it is safe to do so and to obtain any specific instructions for your particular model. Some potential issues to consider when removing the downdraft equipment include:

1. Airflow: The downdraft equipment is designed to help draw smoke, steam, and odors down and out of the kitchen. Without it, you may experience reduced airflow and ventilation, which could result in lingering odors or smoke.
2. Heat distribution: The downdraft equipment may also help distribute heat evenly across the cooktop surface. Without it, you may experience hot spots or uneven cooking.
3. Stability: The downdraft equipment may provide additional support or stability to the cooktop. If it is removed, the cooktop may become less stable or secure.

If you decide to proceed with removing the downdraft equipment, it's important to follow all instructions carefully and to take appropriate safety precautions. You should also be prepared to address any issues that may arise as a result of the removal, such as by using an alternative ventilation system or adjusting your cooking techniques to compensate for any changes in heat distribution. If you're unsure about whether or how to remove the downdraft equipment from your JennAir electric cooktop, it's best to consult with a professional technician or contact JennAir customer service for guidance.
