JennAir Start Circuit or Door Switch Issue

JennAir range display works but oven will not start; pressing Start does nothing (no error code)

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Faulty Start key on touchpad, Failed door switch not sensing closed door, Control logic fault, Child lock enabled

Safety: Disconnect power before testing switches.

Check door closure: Ensure the oven door is fully closed and latching properly.
Door switch test: Press the door switch and listen for a click. Use a meter to verify it changes state when pressed. Replace if faulty.
Control lock: Verify that the control lock is not engaged; disable it per the user manual.
Touchpad test: If only the Start key is unresponsive, the touchpad may be defective and require replacement.
