How to Replace a Jenn-Air ERC

Jenn-Air ranges have a control panel, sometimes referred to as the electronic range control, or ERC, that allows you to control the cooking mode of the oven, as well as the oven temperature. Additionally, when the oven is not in use, the ERC displays the time of day. When the oven is in use, the control displays information regarding the oven, including the cook mode, internal temperature and kitchen timer information. Unlike most ranges, the ERC on a Jenn-Air range is located on the front, as opposed to on the top of the stove. If the ERC is damaged, you must replace it to restore functionality to the oven.

Things You'll Need

• Screwdriver

Instructions

1. Unplug the range from the wall outlet, or turn off the range breaker in your service panel.

2. Open the oven door, then remove the screws from under the control housing, securing the housing to the front of the range.

3. Pull the control housing away from the range, then remove the screws securing the ERC to the control housing.

4. Remove the ERC, then peel the overlay off of the front. Affix the overlay to the new ERC.

5. Secure the new ERC to the control panel using the screws that were removed.

6. Transfer the wires from the old ERC to the new ERC, transferring one wire at a time.

7. Replace the control housing, replacing the screws on the bottom to secure it into position.

8. Restore power to the oven by turning on the breaker or plugging the power cord into the wall outlet.
