JENNAIR DOWNDRAFT COOKTOP (by 2 users)

posted by bibman on Aug 20, 2007


ON MY NEW JENNAIR COOKTOP THE FAN IS SUPPOSED
TO COME ON AUTOMATICALLY WHEN I USE THE GRILL. I HAVE TO MANUALLY TURN THE FAN ON BEFORE THE GRILL WILL EVEN COME ON AND WHEN IT DOES COME ON THE GRILL DOESN'T GET HOT ENOUGH THAT I CANNOT LAY MY HAND ON IT. THIS UNIT HAS A SECOND GRILL THAT WORKS FINE. ANYONE KNOW MY PROBLEM?

My Jennair is older cook top with a fan that works and then quits and then comes back on. When it is on it works with the switch or with the burner but when it quits neither will turn on the fan. It comes on by itself when switched on and then stops and then comes on again with out anything being changed.

Any suggestions would be helpful, switch or fan motor?

bibman: Sounds like the control switch or possible loose wiring. Take the element out and test the slots for voltage. You should get 220 Volts when on high.


DMA Jennair The fan motor is bad and needs to be replaced.

I suggest a new cooktop as THIS IS THE WORST DESIGNED COOKTOP I HAVE EVER USED. Not enough power, very hard to clean,
