      Returning guest presenter Aaron Wilson is back for another exciting discussion. This time, we'll be talking about...
      The Science of CYA: How to Keep the Customer Safe, Document Your Work, and Not Get Sued
      We take on a lot of liability as appliance repair techs, and that can get us into sticky situations whether we've done anything wrong or not. Aaron will be teaching us all about how to navigate this side of the trade.
      We'll start by going over a tragic, real-world case study where a sloppy installation had lethal results, analyzing exactly how the installer's negligence caused this. From there, our scope will expand to what kind of safety precautions we should implement in our own work, both for the customer's sake and for our own.
      But even if you do everything perfectly, there's still the famous "technician witch hunt." Well, we'll also talk about how to deal with that by thoroughly documenting your work and putting yourself beyond legal reproach.
      A little about our guest, Aaron Wilson:
      Aaron has been in the appliance repair trade for about 15 years, starting out by doing installations before moving on to bigger and better things. He worked for C&W Services as a Sub-Zero authorized servicer for a time and thereafter joined Mr. Appliance of Highland Park in the Dallas area, where he worked for years as the lead technician and field service manager. These days, he's making sure that all the appliances of everyone's favorite fried chicken place are in tip-top shape as the Quality and Performance Consultant for the southwest branch of Chick-fil-A. In addition, he has taught many classes on refrigeration repair and advanced diagnostics, during which time he also developed training material for the soft skills side of things, which he is delighted to share with you. On top of all that he's a certified graduate of the Master Samurai Tech Academy, so he knows his stuff!

This is a GE Profile Downdraft Cooktop.

I'm looking for the tech sheet or service manual

for this cooktop.

Thanks

Walter, that model number is incomplete-- there should be a number after the "N."

I'll have to check with the customer.

He said the right front burner was

only heating in the middle.

It's a glass top with down draft.

If I can't get the number are they all

disassembled the same.

Thanks

All the GE glasstops I've worked on have about a dozen Torx screws around the perimeter that allow you to take the glass off. The tech sheet should be inside. Two main possibilities are the burner itself, in which case the burn will be obvious and the infinite control. Pretty straight forward, either way.

Thanks for the information.

I tried to get the tech sheet in the

downloads but there isn't one.

Like you said pretty straight forward.

Yes it was the burner.

As it turned out a pretty easy job.

Thanks for your help.
