How do I find the right GE part number?
For your GE JBP70WC1WW electric range, the right part number comes from matching the model number first, then confirming the exact part on the illustrated parts list for that model. This prevents ordering a lookalike part that will not fit or wire up correctly.
Step-by-step: how we recommend finding the correct part
- Find the model tag and confirm it reads JBP70WC1WW (letter and number order matters).
- Use the model-based parts breakdown to locate the exact section (oven, cooktop, door, wiring).
- Match the part by name + location + shape in the diagram, not by appearance alone.
- Cross-check the listing details (size, terminals, finish color, left vs. right orientation).
- If multiple versions are shown, match any notes about serial range or revision.
Common examples for this model
If you already know what failed, these are examples of model-matched parts you can use as a reference point:
| What is not working | Part type to look up | Example part for JBP70WC1WW |
|---|---|---|
| Oven will not bake | Bake element | GE range bake element WB44T10010 |
| Oven will not broil | Broil element | Range broil element WB44T10009 |
| Oven light out | Bulb or socket | Range oven light bulb 40A15 and range light socket WB08T10026 |
| Oven runs hot/cold | Temperature sensing | Wall oven temperature sensor WB23X5340 |
Why it matters
GE ranges often use similar-looking components across many models, but terminal style, wattage, mounting points, and harness connections can differ. Using the JBP70WC1WW model breakdown helps ensure the replacement part is truly compatible and restores safe, normal heating.

How much does it cost to replace a GE oven control board?
For a GE JBP70WC1WW electric range, replacing the oven control board typically costs $200 to $600 total. The control board itself commonly runs about $150 to $400, and professional labor is usually $150 to $250, depending on service rates and diagnosis time.
What changes the price the most
- Exact board needed (some models use a clock/timer style control, others use an electronic oven control).
- New vs. refurbished board availability.
- Service call and diagnosis fee (often separate from labor).
- Wiring or connector damage found during install.
- Related failures (keypad, temperature sensor, or harness issues).
Typical cost breakdown
| Cost item | Typical range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnosis/service call | $75 to $150 | Sometimes credited toward repair |
| Control board part | $150 to $400 | Model-specific pricing varies |
| Labor (install + test) | $150 to $250 | Usually 1 to 2 hours |
| Estimated total | $200 to $600 | Higher if multiple parts are needed |
Before you buy a control board
A “dead” or inaccurate oven is often caused by a different part. On the JBP70WC1WW, these checks help avoid an unnecessary board purchase:
- If the oven won’t heat in bake, inspect the GE range bake element WB44T10010 for visible breaks or blistering.
- If broil is also weak or dead, check the range broil element WB44T10009.
- If temperatures are consistently off (overheats or underheats), the wall oven temperature sensor WB23X5340 is a common culprit.
- If the display works but a surface burner acts up, the issue is often an infinite switch, not the oven board.
Why it matters
Control boards are one of the higher-cost electric range parts, and they are often non-returnable once installed. Confirming whether the failure is heat-related (element or sensor) versus control-related helps keep the repair cost down.

Where is the model number on a GE electric range?
On the GE electric range model JBP70WC1WW, the model number is typically found on the frame behind the rear control panel area. If you cannot access that area easily, check common backup locations around the oven door opening and storage drawer frame.
Common places to check on a freestanding GE range
Look for a model and serial tag (often a sticker or metal plate) in these spots:
- Behind the rear control panel (backguard) area
- Along the oven door frame when you open the oven door
- On the front frame behind the storage drawer (pull the drawer out)
- On the lower side trim near the front of the range
- On the back of the range near the power cord entry
Quick tips to find it faster
These steps help you locate the tag without disassembly:
- Turn on a flashlight and look for a white or silver label
- Wipe greasy dust off the frame so the print is readable
- Pull the storage drawer straight out and look on the front frame rails
- Open the oven door and scan the left and right frame edges
- Write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown
What the label usually looks like
| What you see | What it means | What to record |
|---|---|---|
| Model No. | Identifies the exact range design | JBP70WC1WW (full string) |
| Serial No. | Production code used for date and build info | Full serial string |
| Electrical ratings | Voltage/amps info for service | Optional, but helpful |
Why it matters
We use the exact model number to match the correct GE electric range parts and diagrams for your appliance. That prevents ordering the wrong bake element, temperature sensor, or control switch for JBP70WC1WW.
If you are replacing an oven light while you have the label information handy, match the part to your model before ordering the range oven light bulb 40A15.
