How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power at the breaker and do not use the appliance until repaired. Cracked glass can expose live components.

  • Do not operate: Avoid using any burners on a cracked glass top; this is a fire and shock hazard.
  • Document damage: Take photos for warranty or insurance claims if applicable.
  • Replace glass top: Order a JennAir-compatible replacement glass cooktop for your exact model. Remove control knobs, lift the top, disconnect wiring as needed, and transfer components to the new glass following service manual instructions.
  • Professional help: Due to the risk of glass breakage and wiring complexity, many homeowners choose professional replacement.
