Ceramic glass top replacement for whirlpool hob

SOURCE: how to fix a crack in ceramic top

Mine cracked and I ordered a replacement shipped overnight. I can't get a repair person out before Christmas. Is it easy to do it myself?

SOURCE: Replace JED8430ADB Ceramic Glass

First, you have to pull out the cooktop from the counter and remove the knobs.
Next, there are hex screws around the perimeter - do not remove the lowest ones on the front and the back (they hold the tray that the burners sit in) or the ones on the bottom (they help to hold on the blower assembly).
The final trick are two screws that are located in the downdraft plenum - there's one on each side (you don't have to remove the two in the back or the front - those are for small covers only).
The glass should lift out.
When putting the new glass in, remember that the plenum walls fit on the inside of the glass (you won't see the top of the steel).

SOURCE: Replacing faulty regulator for hotplate

Remove hotplate and oven control knobs. Under the 2nd and 5th knobs is an extra screw which holds on the front cover. Unscrew these and free the cover then access is gained to the screws (2 on each edge) which removes the plate to which the regulators are fixed.Remove the faulty regulator by unscrewing it from the plate,(2 screws) It is an easy job then to install the new part taking care to put the correct wires on the correct terminals. Reassemble, job done!

SOURCE: Stoves 700CTH hob

I have a Stoves 900 CTH with the same problem. Its been like it for about 6 months and we're still able to get it going eventually.
If you turn the power on at the mains and leave it beeping for about 2 hrs then press the power on touch button. You should see all the "0."s flashing. When the flashing and beeping goes slow try pressing one of the hob buttons alot until the little dot illuminates next to the 0 then quickly lit the + button.
It sometimes works after 5 mins but other times it takes 20-30mins and is a real pain in the ****.
I did ring Stoves a while back and they quoted me £190 for the pcb but I hardly use it so just lived with it as it is but I finally had enough tonight and done a web search which turned up this thread.
I've just pulled it to bits to see if I could locate this "C17" but not 100% sure what I'm looking for.
Is it the big silver thing in the center with 5B RVJ on it?
