The oven works perfect. but the light on the control screen does not light up. I can barly see it at night when it is dark.
This is a HEAT issue, not electrical. It is a design problem. The HEAT is "burning" the display panel in the older models. In the new models, Jenn-Air has put a cooling fan underneath the display panel.
There is the led display unit and the power unit both of which cost about $150. I don't know which one to replace.
I'm afraid you are going to need a new display board. Not very hard to change but a pricey item. Have seen this problem a few times. Good Luck!

The digital panel stopped working and does not light up. We changed the panel thinking it would solve the problem, only to realize that we wasted our money and the problem continues. The double ovens work perfectly fine, but I have to guess the temperature since the panel does not light up.
Jenn-air display is dark, you can see it at night. everthing else works fine
dark display, faintly visible when room is dark. Backlight?
I have had two ww30430p ovens and both had this problem at about 36-48 months. In both cases Jenn-Air replaced the part for no cost, but I had to pay a technician to diagnose it and to install it. They would not take my word despite my having taken the oven apart and identified the problem and the part number and the solution.
Overall, not thrilled with Jenn-Air
The oven control works but can not see the temperature and clock. I called coast appliance store in san diego and they said the problem could be either switch membrane or the clock itself. Each of them cost about $200 and it's a trial and error approach. Aparently these parts are special order and can not be returned if they don't work!!
