Yes, most likely the broil relay got welded shut. The company will want to sell you a whole new control board for about $200.00 -- but if you have any soldering skills, you can purchase a new replay for around $6.50.

Hi the problem here is the igniter. Take the floor of the oven out and then the flame spreader. The igniter will be located at the back of the burner. Set the oven for 350, if the igniter does not light then test it with an ohms meter it should read continuity. If it reads open you should replace it. If the igniter does glow it still could be bad, the igniter should glow bright yellow to the point you can't look at it. If the igniter glows orange/yellow it is bad you will need to replace it. If you have any other questions please feel free to comment. Mike

The easiest way to check if the gas side is working would be to check if the stove burners are working.

Hi.

Please click here and follow procedure on website.

Regards.

your model is not complete so i am sending you a breakdown of a JGBS20 gas range. there should be more to the model and you can usually find it on the frame of the stove after opening the oven drawer. anyway, the igniter is #218 in the picture. maybe it will help you somewhat to figure out what needs to come off to change it. hope this helps.

What you found is the bulb for the thermostat which has broken off. The model number you supply is incomplete. If you have the full model number, I can get you a part number.

It is a safety lock and must not be disconnected. Wait until the water has dried.

Question edited for clarity. The bake element failed? Test for continuity. If it has a fan, test that too. If it is electronic, check the thermistor temperature sensor. For suspected control panels or mainboards, I always suggest dealer service so you get the correct diagnosis and warranty on the parts and the job. They are also expensive. ..

Some help in the link. None are free https://www.google.com/search?q=repair+manual+for+a+GE+electric+range+%23+R+B526+H3BB ..

Most modern appliances like cookers and washing machines have the control panels and displays are fitted from behind the front panel, inside the machine. You will be better off getting a professional repairer to do it for you. *Remember* this is a Gas appliance that you're working on so BE CAREFUL. You might have to remove several other panels to get to the touch pad so if your going to do it yourself turn OFF the main gas supply first then make notes and take photos as you go.

There is a stuck micro switch somewhere. The is one behind each burner knob. https://www.geappliances.com/appliance/GE-Profile-30-Free-Standing-Gas-Convection-Range-PGB911ZEJSS Oh no, Part 12, is discontinued and all the switches come as one harness.

No reset found in the manual. You can try this and hope it works.. Turn off the circut Breaker to the stove for 5 minutes to see if it resets. Checking around the net I've only found "Item Discontinued"

• The part is no longer sold by the manufacturer.
• The manufacturer does not stock any substitute parts to replace this one and therefore, unfortunately, we cannot obtain or recommend a substitution for this part.

Darn..
