Jenn-Air electric stove top - burners/fan won't come on

I have an electric stove top by Jenn Air... The burner indicator lights come on but the burners will not heat up and the down draft fan will not come on...is there a reset button?  The main breaker is fine.  I did see a spark and hear a pop on one of the burners the night before.
I couldn't find the model number for the cook top. But there were only two listed so I clicked on the first one.  It is an older model.

    each burner popped and that was it. I don't think circuits in the house are to blame

    My jennair flattop cook stove has a right front burner with a dual element.(stove 9 years old approx. is in home we just bought) This burner just stopped working yesterday and the strange thing is the light around the knob is on. I was told by jennair they don't answer service questions. I think maybe the light indicates a bad element, any thoughts?

    My stove top tripped the breaker, and will not work now. We replaced the breaker, and have power to the elements, but won't work. Is there a reset somewhere on this unit?

I had the same problem. Went to an appliance store that carries Jenn Air. Replaced both plug in units. Now they work perfectly and it cost less than $350 total! Good Luck!

You may have lost a leg of your 240V service. make sure you have 240 to the appliance and then start chasing down where you lost it. there is no onboard trip or reset on this unit

Why burner on light on stove wont come off

After stove is turned off, the light stays on if burner still warm. If the burner never came on, then it needs to be replaced with new one.

I have a 4 burner Jenn-Air JED8430ADB electric radiant heat stove that has recently stopped working. It has been installed for many years (came with the house) and worked fine until now. When I turn one...

The cook top is connected to 220 volts. In the house wiring there are two legs each 115 volts. Usually they connect with a red wire, black wire and the third a neutral. It is likely that at the connection to the unit or at the electrical box a connection has failed or the 220 volt circuit breaker has failed on one leg. A qualified electrician needs to do the repair!

Spot on Jenn Air smooth cook top stove with down draft.

Use Cooktop Cleaner with a soft micro cloth. Don't use water. Buff until the mark disappears. Hint: Never clean the cooktop until it is completely cool to touch as doing so makes cleaning much harder. Never use abrasives on the glass or abrasive cast iron skillets.

My electric stove top burner only works on high

This is for the glass top units. well i'm not sure if your problem is with your large or small single burner or the large expandable burner. If it's the large or small single burner replace the burner and if it the expandable also replace the burner. If you have a coil burner replace the infinite switch. Good luck hope this helps you.
