Dan,

Thanks for the response to Glen,

I hope to hear from my friends at WP, today, I should have a response soon, hopefully,anyway.

:) :) :)

George,

Here are excerpts from the service manual, for accessing the components you need to check,

Removing and Replacing Range


NOTE:

To avoid countertop damage, do not move

range forward until range has been raised

enough to clear all cabinetry.
2. Pull the range forward out of the cabinet opening.
3. Disconnect or unplug the power cord leading from
unit to fuse box or junction box depending on unit.
4. Replace the oven using the installation instructions
and anti-tip bracket(s).

Maintop Assembly

1. Remove power from unit.
2. Remove range from installation position, see
“Removing and Replacing Range” procedure.
3. Remove coil elements from installation position
(select models).
4. Open oven door and remove screws securing
maintop to oven chassis, located on the bottom of
control panel and along the outside edges of the
maintop.
5. Label and disconnect wiring to ribbon elements
(select models).
6. Gently remove ceran top (select models) and place in
safe area to prevent damage to top.
7. Remove porcelain maintop (select models).
8. Reverse procedure to reinstall maintop assembly.

Control Panel
1. Remove power from unit.
2. Open oven door and remove screws securing control
panel.
3. Remove screws located on the right and left sides of
the control panel.
4. Grasp control panel on the far left and right sides and
pull down.
NOTE:

Gently pull control panel out and down.
5. Reverse procedure to reinstall control panel.

Infinite Switch

1. Remove control panel, see "Control Panel"
procedure.
2. Label and disconnect wire terminals from infinite
switch.
3. Remove knob on infinite switch.
4. Remove screws in front securing infinite switch to
control panel.
5. Reverse procedure to reinstall infinite switch.
Indicator Lights
1. Remove control panel, see "Control Panel" procedure
for removal.
2. Label and disconnect wires from indicator light.
3. Squeeze the two tabs on the indicator light body and
gently pull to release from control panel.

4. Reverse procedure to reinstall indicator light

Now for the circuits to check :

For the hot surface light,

You'll need to check each burner sensor(box on side of each burner).
Terminals 1B across to 2B, should be an open circuit(0 resistance)when cool. Which ever burner has a closed circuit(infinite resistance 000)on the 1B to 2B terminals is the bad sensor and is the cause of the hot surface light to remain on.

The infinite switches, indicator lights,

Once you get the control panel down and access the back of the switches,

With the switches in the off position, you'll need to check for an open circuit(0 resistance) between the L1 terminal and the P terminal on each switch, which ever switch has a closed circuit(infinite resistance 000) across those terminals, is the cause for the indicator light being on.

Remember, you need to remove at least one wire off of one of the terminals, when testing to achieve an accurate test reading.

If all checks OK, you'll need to start looking for a shorted or damaged wire.

Good Luck,

:) :) :)

I don't think you'd have a bad hot surface light, it's on , so it works.

If all your sensor circuits are correct, sounds like it from your reply, you need to start looking for a shorted wire on the sensor circuit to chassis ground. We're completing a circuit some where in order to turn the light on.

The Way this works is;
You have 120 VAC on the wire to the 1B terminal, Tan wire,
You have 120 VAC on the wire to the 2B terminal, Black wire(s),
at the terminals on the sensor.

When the sensor circuit reaches temp. and closes, it causes the 240 VAC to travel to the hot surface light, and it illuminates, until the temperature cools down , the circuit opens and the light goes out.

Though, I have never had this problem, there is a possibility that your bad infinite switch, could be the culprit,

Replace the bad switch, if the light still remains on, you'll need to start looking for a shorted wire.

Let us know what you find.

Good Luck,

:) :) :)

I have had good luck with the Jenn air people when I have been trouble shooting my electric range.They are helpful and are great about sending out techs.

I actually called on a Thursday to get my electric range repaired and the tech was there before noon on Friday. Pretty good considereing it was around the holidays.
