Blower Fan comes on by itself when we turn 2 left sides of burners. Sometime by hitting the grill it will shut off. I hit the switch and now switch is bad.
1. What can cause the fan to come on itself and How do I repair this problem.
2. Would blower switch correct the problem.
Thanks

That functioning is often normal for the use of a grill there. The following is from the owner's manual of model JGP389BEVBB.

Using the Ventilation System

To turn the fan on, use the on/off control located on the control panel.

The fan will operate automatically when the grill burner is in use.



If that behavior also occurs even with other burner types installed, there could be a problem with the switch under the cartridge on that side which detects the type of cartridge installed or that switch being activated or not being activated properly by the cartridge.

That switch is illustration # 208 in the "Cooktop gas double burner" image at the following link:

Just the problem of that switch being broken. I very much doubt it is the cause of your original stated symptom but would need to be checked out to determine for certain.
