GE Cooktops - Popular Questions, Answers, Tips & Manuals

You can't modify gas appliances.

I have an early 1970s GE, and we keep saying when it breaks down, we will replace it, but apart from replacing elements, it just goes on and on. Unfortunately, neither of your numbers give results. There should be a plate near the power lead that has the details and some have a parts manual and wiring diagram in the rear of the console if it has one. https://www.google.com/search?q=GE+82212+cooktop https://www.google.com/search?q=GE+YT123887L+cooktop ..

Question edited for clarity. There is no fuse, the loads are too great. The Service Manual is in the link. Check the Control Lock on Page 11. https://ja.safe-manuals.com/source/pdf/adea1af72b5b020af66562d603ff2631 https://www.google.com/search?q=ge+pp975s+fuse+location ....

It is a gas appliance. From the installation manual. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier. It needs to come out as there is almost certainly fixings from below. Screws on the burners, only hold the burner rings down. The installation manual doesn't say how the top comes off, just how to install. No Service Manual for it. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/57348/Ge-Jgp630.html?page=1#manual ..

Take out the right front burner and use your multimeter to check it for continuity. Only then can you be sure that the error code isn't lying to you. It is my guess, that with an error message so specific, that if no burners are working, it is not the front right burner at all. Hands on testing is the only way to be sure. F152 means the right front burner has failed, the sensor in it is bad, the burner will need to be replaced.

The element is $225.00 so it is not something to change on a guess. Full testing procedure here, or call for a Service Engineer. https://www.appliancepartspros.com/answers-for-ge-element-radiant-lt-wb30t10080-ap3188020-question-148609.html ..

most likely the keypad is defective.

The induction cooktop will flash "F" when cookware has been removed from the surface; cookware is not present when the unit is turned on; or cookware is not centered on the element. Position the cookware properly over the center of the cooking surface if the error code "F" flashes. Use only induction cookware and use a bigger pan, as the error code "F" indicates that the pan is too small for the cooking element.

There are several helpful how-to videos on Youtube but please be aware induction hobs work on a principle different from the usual and the troubleshooting and repair is considered a specialist task - if you wouldn't poke around inside a tv or a computer then you probably shouldn't poke around inside your hob.

Sounds like igniter problem. Did some one pull the electrical cord or has a fuse or breaker blown/ Things to check. Your igniter is run by electricity.

Are the burners uniform around top? Pictures show that there is a slot on one side. The tech is probably right.. You are not the only person complaining about this. Call back and see if there is a different burner that will fit you stove.

Yes, turn it off and get a gas tech out to check it.

Take a q-tip and clean under where it clicks. Might have food or grease covering release hole.
