Error code MECH-10 on the Jenn-Air JGS1450FS Gas Range 30 in 5.0 cu ft 18,000 BTU Gas Range with Even-Heat True Convection means: Bake or Broil Element Burned Out (Electric/Dual Fuel). The electric bake (bottom) or broil (top) element has a visible burn-through hole, blister, or bright spot — the element may arc, spark, or glow bright white/blue at the failure point before failing completely; disconnect power and visually inspect the element; a burned-out element shows a visible break, hole, or area of discoloration; replace the element; on Jenn-Air dual-fuel ranges (JGRP series), the oven uses electric elements even though the cooktop is gas; element replacement requires disconnecting the wire leads at the back of the oven
