Jenn-Air M170 Microwave Oven Questions & Answers
Can anyone get a hold of the Jenn-Air Microwave
Same thing happened to me. I couldn't find a replacement part, but I was able to make a fairly easy functional repair. If you take off the microwave cover, you can reach the back side of the control panel where the door release button is located. With a screwdriver or your finger, you press down on the top attachment tab (it's the swivel point that holds the button in place) with just enough pressure to remove the button. You'll have to do something similar to remove the other half of the broken button. If the two pieces of the button fit neatly together, then you can epoxy a piece of flat metal or rigid plastic to the back side of the button in order to join the two halves. Be sure to clamp the two halves of the button tightly together while the adhesive sets to get a tight fit and minimize the crack line. Let it cure, then replace in the microwave. It's not cosmetically perfect because there is still a hairline crack in the button, but it's not that visible and the button works well. I can't say yet how long this repair will hold up yet. I suppose that will depend on the quality of the bond you achieve when repairing the button. Good luck.

The latch that opens the door to my Jenn-Air model
If the point of damage can be glued together with good bonding and further re-enforcement , it can be strong to withstand pressure.So remove the assembly to try this out before you think there is no way out but to replace with the handle assembly from the service center.The other option is to get one from a scrapped set.

I have a Jenn-Air M170
Yes you will have to replace it, and yes, i am fairly sure they still have that part in stock. please use the direct link below to ask and obtain the part you need.
Also please ask them for the service manual too, this will make the task ever so much easier.. However the replacement parts used to come with fitting instructions..

I have a blown internal fuse on my JennAir M170b
Hi,
The information on the fuse is the maximum rating. The holder may not match the rating.
The 'A' is the very important part of the size. You will need a 15 Amp fuse. The best fuse to use is 'ceramic'. You can find them at Radio Shack in the back of the store there are drawers with electrical parts.

We were cooking a dish and stopped it at the mid
The same thing happened to ours last night. We went to add another minute of cooking time and realized the oven was dead - no clock, no display of any kind, and no more cooking!
I've verified the power outlet is OK. Ideas???
My JennAir M170 just quit working,
I would at least have a service tech look at it. Here are the comon items to check most of the time when a microwave just quits. 1 the internal fuse. 2 the power diode 3 the large capacitor 4. door open / closed micro-switches 5 the magnetron. The least likely suspect is the control panel yet can also cause the problem. You should still be able to keep this unit in service cost effectively. Until I had it checked out I would not give up on it.
