It is: An Amana instabroil model ARG7800E. Dated at 1998 or so. It's black if that helps. The problem: The oven/bake controls went out and can't be used. The clock readout now randomly blinks on and off. Sometimes its out for hours then the clock readout starts blinking on and off. It will sometimes stay on for 2 seconds sometimes more sometimes less. The oven control buttons/control panel & clock are rendered useless. We can't use our oven at all. Occasionally the word "lock" in really small yellow letters blinks on and off with the time. The top burners work fine.


Please help! Thank You

Amana [range] model ARG7800E

We'd also need the appliance manufacturing (MF G) number to proper identify the appliance in question. It will be on the model and serial number tag as well and start with the letter P...

Hi Dan,
Thanks for responding-the # is P1141299N E for the email I sent yesterday. Here it is below.


It is: An Amana instabroil model ARG7800E. Dated probably at 1997 or so. It's black if that helps. Once again the problem: The oven/bake controls went out and can't be used. The clock readout now randomly blinks on and off. Sometimes its out for 8 + hours then the clock readout starts blinking on and off. It will sometimes stay on for 3 seconds sometimes more sometimes less. The oven control buttons are rendered useless. We can't use our oven at all. Occasionally the word lock in really small yellow letters blinks on and off with the time. The top burners work fine.

thanks,
Steve T

I can't think of anything besides a problem in the control itself which might cause your symptoms. You could try disconnecting power from the range for several minutes to see if the control resets and also checking the range's power supply to make sure it is properly polarized and still grounded.

If that doesn't work your range may need a new control.

Unfortunately the control for your model (Whirlpool part # 31944801 / AP # AP4041311) has been discontinued and doesn't look to be available any longer. If needed you may have to try to find someone that can repair your original.
