I have 2 jenn air

If it has spark and you could hear the gas sound pumping out and when lit it turns itself off wihin a few seconds then you are having a problem with an air mixture valve, many of these have a sort of control which either means closing or opening.This is why the burner goes off.hope this helps.

None of the burners on

Are the burner ports clogged?
If burner ports are clogged, refer to your Use and Care Guide for sealed surface burners cleaning recommendations. If you do not have your Use and Care Guide, find it online by entering your product model number in the search tool below.
Clean the ports with a straight pin. Do not reassemble caps on burners while wet. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap. Do all burners fail to light?
Check to see if the cooktop is connected to the gas supply and the gas shutoff is turned on.
Do you hear a sparking sound?
If there are sparking sounds, the igniter may not be sparking to the burner cap. Turn off the appliance and check to make sure the caps are set on the correct burner base properly. Do not switch the caps from one burner to another as they may not spark properly. Each burner has its own individual cap.
Is the burner head positioned properly?
Cap must be seated on the burner base to light and perform properly. Reinstall the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap.
I have given you a bunch of things to do, one of these should solve your problem. Mostly sounds like burner caps need to be cleaned, gas causes build up of carbon.

Solid element cooking top slow in heating up

It sounds like you have lost 1 leg of 220V power to the unit. Chances are, one of the elements shorted to ground, then blew itself open.

Find the breaker or fuse box, and reset/replace breakers/fuse. If it blows again, you'll have to locate which element is bad, or where the short is.

I can help more once I know if there was a breaker trip, or fuse was blown. I will also need to know if it is one element, or all the elements., that exhibit the same problem. I can instruct you on identifying the bad element as well, and replacement elements are available.

Jennair electic cook top

Buy whatever kind you prefer. On an open coil unit it really does not make much difference. On a smooth top, Make sure it has a flat bottom, preferably dark, not shiny. On white smooth tops avoid aluminum as it leaves grey marks.

On my induction hob, 2 discs on the right side stopped working at the same time, I put the pan on and it shows as if it hadn't been detected, the same pan works on the remaining 2 discs on the left

A) https://hobguide.com/induction-hob-cannot-detect-pan/ B) https://hobguide.com/induction-hob-not-working-on-one-side/ You are advised to not try to get into the electronics of the induction hob. Such is dangerous. The unit uses 3 phase electricity, something unlikely to be addressed by DIY activity if you want to be safe. Check your warranty. I assume this is not a matter of pans of the wrong material or size being deployed. This well may require a technician to sort out. The brand/model has not been identified so I cannot direct you to further resources. Your user manual surely provides a company name where you might seek some customer support.

Domain ceramic cooktop cec70 will not turn off

If your ceramic cooktop model CEC70 is not turning off, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue: 1. Check the controls: Ensure that you have properly followed the instructions to turn off the cooktop. Some models may require you to press and hold a specific button or combination of buttons to power off the cooktop. Refer to the user manual for your specific model for detailed instructions on turning it off. 2. Power cycling: Try power cycling the cooktop by turning off the power at the circuit breaker or unplugging it from the power source. Leave it unplugged or with the power off for a few minutes before plugging it back in or turning the power back on. This can sometimes help reset the controls and resolve any temporary issues. 3. Control lock: Check if the cooktop has a control lock feature that might be activated. Some models have a lock function to prevent accidental changes to the settings. Look for a button or key combination that activates or deactivates the control lock. Refer to the user manual for instructions specific to your model. 4. Contact customer support: If the issue persists, it is recommended to reach out to the manufacturer's customer support or consult a professional technician who specializes in appliance repairs. They will be able to provide further guidance or arrange for a service visit to diagnose and fix the problem. Remember, when dealing with electrical appliances, it's always important to prioritize safety. If you encounter any unusual or potentially hazardous situations, such as smoke, sparks, or strong odors, immediately turn off the power supply and contact a professional technician for assistance.

Can anyone tell me the specs I would need in a varistor to replace the one from my Iwatani induction cooktop?

o determine the specifications for the varistor to replace the one on your Iwatani induction cooktop, you will need to know the voltage rating and the maximum current the varistor can handle. One way to determine these specifications is to check the datasheet for the original varistor, which may be available from Iwatani or the varistor manufacturer. If you cannot find the datasheet, you can try measuring the resistance of the varistor with a multimeter, which can give you an idea of the voltage rating. However, keep in mind that the resistance may change as the varistor ages or if it has already failed. Additionally, you may need to know the peak current that the varistor can handle. This information may be available on the datasheet or on the original varistor if there are any markings left. If you cannot determine the peak current, a general rule of thumb is to choose a varistor with a maximum surge current rating that is higher than the maximum current that the circuit can deliver. It's important to choose a varistor with the correct voltage rating and peak current handling capability, as using an incorrect varistor can potentially cause further damage to your induction cooktop or pose a safety hazard

Electric schott ceran glass cooktop model number ISE630WS01 right burner not working

Based on your question that the right front burner of your Schott Ceran glass cooktop is not working, here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the power supply: Make sure that the cooktop is properly connected to a power source and that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped. If the circuit breaker is tripped, reset it and try turning on the burner again.
  2. Check the burner control switch: The burner control switch regulates the power to the burner. Check if the switch is loose, damaged, or defective. You can test the switch for continuity with a multimeter to determine if it is functioning properly.
  3. Check the heating element: If the burner control switch is not the problem, the issue may be with the heating element. Check the element for visible damage, such as cracks, burn marks, or discoloration. If you see any damage, the element may need to be replaced.
  4. Check the wiring: Check the wiring connections between the burner control switch and the heating element. If any of the connections are loose or damaged, this may be causing the issue.
  5. Test with a different burner: If you have multiple burners on your cooktop, try testing the right front burner with a different control switch or heating element to determine if the issue is with the burner or another component.
The above are basic means of troubleshooting, the following below will add more to the solution above; Check the control board: The control board is responsible for sending power to the heating elements. Check the control board for any signs of damage or burning, and test it for continuity using a multimeter.
  • Check the thermal fuse: The thermal fuse is a safety device that cuts off power to the heating elements if they overheat. Check the thermal fuse with a multimeter to see if it has blown. If it has, you will need to replace it.
  • Check the switch relay: The switch relay is another component that can cause the burner to not work. Check the switch relay for any signs of damage, and test it with a multimeter to see if it is functioning properly.
  • Test the voltage supply: Use a multimeter to test the voltage supply to the burner. If there is no voltage, this could indicate a problem with the control board, thermal fuse, or switch relay.
  • Check for loose connections: Inspect all wiring connections between the control board, switch relay, and heating element. Loose or damaged connections can cause the burner to not work.
