My oven is also older scd272 (2000) and Thermador paid for the repair. Call them.

Who repaired it? I sent the part in and Thermador did not want to touch it.

Guys,

I just performed the capacitor replacement and I can confirm it worked perfectly. Furthermore, the only capacitor that needs to be replaced is the smaller 68uf that is in between the larger 470's on the side. Replacing the 470's made no change for me. The display went bright only after replacing the 68uf.

Also, there's no need to send off for these capacitors. Your local radio-shack has them. Mine was out of stock on the 68uf, but I used a 100uf which worked just fine.

Keep rockin. Thanks for the info.

I too had success changing the Capacitors. I changed all 3 as stated in the earlier post!

The display on our oven is very dim, the only part of the display that shows anything is the clock, the oven still seems to work.
I was going to order the touchpad because the connections seemed a little sloppy in back.If I change that, the problem should be fixed?

I had the same symptoms you describe, I change the 3 capacitors as mention in the post.It corrected the proplem. The touch pad is likely not your problem.
