JenAir Vent Switch

The exhaust vent switch on my Jenn-Air Electric Grill/stove (model C221) went bad the other day (appeard to simply melt). I plan on replacing the switch, but while I can understand why the exhaust fan wont work (the switch wont even move), I dont understand why none of the burners work either? The ‘red light’ comes on when I turn one of the knobs, but the coils wont heat.
Is there some sort of ‘breaker’ switch that maybe got tripped? Or wont the coils work without a functioning exhaust?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi.

Here is the fan switch AP4008462

But it’s no longer available.

You need to reset the circuit breaker then the burners will work.

Thanks Simon - I’ll reset the breaker and thanks for the part number. I found this on ******** - http://www.********.com/itm/12001130-Jenn-Air-Fan-Switch-Replacement-2-Wire-with-Pushnuts-/320850978639?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab435674f
Do you think it will be an decent replacement? Or anywhere else where I could find a replacement?

Thanks
Pete

Hi.

If the part you found crosses over to the original part number then use it.
