The bottom oven came on by its self and I had to turn the breaker off to shut it down. I turned the breaker back on and soon the bottom oven came back on. The top oven worked as normal. I turned the breaker back off and now the breaker trips when I attempt to turn the breaker back on. It would be helpful if I knew where to start looking.

Most likely the problem is a bad (shorted) control board.

- The control board Part number: AP3767567

Gene,
Thanks your for your help. I have the board lose but Im having trouble getting the two large plugs un-plugged. They appear to be the power to each oven element. Normally I break it just before I see the solution this time I'm trying to be more careful. I cant tell that they are held on in any special way, are they just tough to unplug?

Insert a flat screwdriver between the plug and the control board and carefully pry the plug up.

Gene.
