Checked the sensor with my ohm meter and it is reading 1076, so believe this means it's fine. From the posts, I think I need a control panel (At approximately $200). Make sense to order this and go for it? Am I missing anything else to check? Thanks. Jan

I would have to agree with you, since the flucuation goes both ways the control board is bad. The part # is5701M426-60.

Rank: Member Groups: Registered Joined: 1/1/2011(UTC) Posts: 4		Here's the latest when setting the oven temperature. Sometimes panel shows pre-heating but isn't even coming on (no gas flow at all). Sometimes it comes on, indicates 350 degrees when it's actually 200ish. I'm hesitant to buy any more parts. Can someone help me with some basic diagnostic steps (again) before I go buy a new oven? Thanks.
