Oven Repair (including Ranges and Cooktops)

gfa916 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-22-2009, 08:43 AM

We had a power surge, after which the LED display on my Hotpoint oven is dead. (The surge also killed my microwave and cordless phone.) The range burners work (igniters ignite), but the oven does not. Is it likely that the power surge fried the controller? Are there any tricks/surprises to replacing the controller? Any other parts that likely fried?

Thanks for you help.

Most likely the problem is a bad control board. This part is not too difficult to replace yourself. Remove the rear cover and you'll see what to do next.

You probably have to order an overlay too because it's glued to the control board.
