I've got a Jenn-Air wall oven, model #JJW9530AAW. The LCD display for the clock is basically unreadably dim anymore. In the dark of night I can barely make out the numbers. It works well, seems to keep the correct time. The temperature and timers also appear to work fine. I just can't read the numbers. Suggestions please. Hope it's a DIY fix.

Thanks.

It's a bad clock. The relay board that powers it is fine. Just order the clock through the Blue parts link above and you should be good to go.

Sometimes , if you're really lucky, you'll find the inside of the lens all smoked up. Then you get get a better display by cleaning it off. But, most of the time you need a new control.

Thanks for the reply guys. Nick - when you say I likely need a new control, are you talking about the clock like Trying to Help indicated? Just want to make sure we have corroboration before I order the part. Just took it off and tried cleaning up the window, but that made no difference.

Your clock is bad. The board transformer supplies voltage to the clock for display and the entering of oven commands. The fact that you can program indicates the voltage is still present (I've never had one input fail at a time). If you have a meter and want to be sure (and impress the neighbors and the little lady), do a voltage check on the clock. Find the J1 harness and do a DC voltage check from pin 1 to pin 2 on the supply harness. This is your clock supply voltage. You should have 9-12 VDC.

Thanks to all for your help. Got the part yesterday, installed it in about ten minutes and all is well again. Found out from Jenn Air that the part had a five year warranty. It is now about five and a half years old.

We have a Jenn-Air range, model # SVE47600W with a similar problem--clock display very dim, even went completely dark today then made a comeback to dim. Timer and clock still work.

Are we looking at replacing the clock also? If so, would it be a different part number since we have a different Jenn-Air model from Len's?

Last question: is the clock easy to install? I am not the DIY type (more a night crawler than a grasshopper), but I am looking to save money these days.

Many thanks in advance to Samurai-san and other grandmasters for their wisdom,

Mark

Looks easy enough to install, ref. # 3 in this breakdown...Sears shows the clock to be part number 71001799

I have a similar problem with Jenn Air double oven - Model JMW9527AAB. The LCD display for lower oven does not work. I cannot see any segments that normally light up when working. Oven heating elements work but no input or directions or clock time appear on the blank screen. What steps should I take? I priced the ERC (item #696675) at $156.45 which they call an electronic clock control which seems misnamed. So I would like to do some diagostic detective work before ordering unless you are confident that it is the problem.

Thanks,

yes the ERC is what you need, buy with confidence, you can return to repair clinic if need be, but you wont need to

Thanks for advice. I will order in near future and confirm installation success. Hopefully part will come with detailed installation instructions or I will be back asking questions sooner.

I have yet another similar problem with a Jenn Air JJW8630(BAB) double wall oven, dim to unreadable display. I have ordered the ERC presuming this is the right part. Is there anywhere that you know of I could get an exploded diagram so that I can take out the old and replace with the new?

Thanks for your help!
