self cleaning system on my Maytag stove seems to be running constantly making noise ( does not clean). The clock is running so fast. Is there any way to stop the clock and not plug off the stove? What happens if it runs constantly for days or weeks?

A Model Number may help others help you
Also more info will help
self cleaning system on my Maytag stove seems to be running constantly making noise ( does not clean).
The unit is stuck in CLEAN mode but the elements are not heating up.
Is this correct?
Where is the noise coming from and what does it sound like?
The clock is running so fast.
Need more info on this, what exactly is happening?
Is there any way to stop the clock and not plug off the stove?
Not sure what you mean by this
What happens if it runs constantly for days or weeks?
Without further info cannot say
What have you tried if anything?
Have you tried unplugging the unit for half an hour or so, then reconnecting it to see if the clock/mode will reset? |

The sound comes from "self cleaning system" dial control panel (clock-off, start, stop). It is buzzing, less noisy than when buzzing for "off-end of the cycle). That buzzing make all dials move - like never ending self cleaning. Except it does not clean. I do not use self cleaning - do not need it, but that buzzing bothers me a lot, it is annoing and I do not know if it can cause any fire hazard. I tried to set " OFF" mode, but it runs anyway. I unplugged from power - after I plugged in - it runs the same. Is there any way to stop it? The oven works OK for baking.

Without a Model Number it is hard to say.
Your description seems to indicate that this is an old unit with a mechanical timer so odds of gettig a replacement are slim.
Perhaps unplugging it, removing the rear cover and then see if you can find out what is buzzing and unplugging it may work but you may loose other functions that you use.
Be careful the stove has 240 volts which is lethal!!! |

Where can I find Model Number? I definitely need the other functions. Do you think that buzzing timer may couse any danger?

Here are your parts Replacement parts for MAYTAG LCRG705 | AppliancePartsPros.comOn another site I was able to see that there are 2 types of timer/control boards used on this unit one with relays and another without relays. The one with relays is no longer available. Your buzzing may be a bad relay/control board but probably the only way to fix it is to find a repair depot on the net and see if they will fix it for you. I could not find any other info on this unit. Basically you have to locate the part which is buzzing Sorry I cannot be more helpful, hopefully someone with more knowledge than I will jump in and lend a hand. |
