JennAir SU146 Single Oven Service
Think of the SU146 as a simple, sturdy electric wall oven from a much earlier period of JennAir design. It has bake and broil elements and uncomplicated controls, and it is commonly built into the original wall cabinet of a long-lived family kitchen.
On a unit this age the door seal is often the quiet culprit. A hardened gasket lets heat slip out, so the oven runs longer and the kitchen warms up. We look at the seal and hinges first, then test both elements, the oven light socket, and the thermostat against a thermometer. Each step costs little to check, so you know exactly where the problem sits. Your price is written before we begin, and our 30-day workmanship warranty covers it.
The broil element is wired separately from the bake element, so it can burn out alone. We measure its resistance and replace it if the circuit is open.
It is, because heat escapes and the oven works longer. We replace the gasket and check hinge fit so the door closes evenly along its edge.
The socket or its connection may have corroded or loosened from heat. We test the socket, and replace it if the new bulb still stays dark.
