Default How to replace circuit board and test components in my Maytag stove
Model Number: MER5552BAW   Brand: Maytag   Age: 1 - 5 years   
Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com


The circuit board in my stove shorted out (arcing) I can see fried components on the board. I need to know if fixing this is as easy as pulling out the old board and snapping in a new one. Is there a trick to getting the boards out? How can I check to see what caused the board to short out. Can I check all the pieces that plug into the board, without plugging them into a new board first? What about once the new board is in place?
Can I tell by the "fried" parts on the board, what might have caused the problem? I would appreciate any help you can give me. Lots of details would be great. Thank you :o)

Yes, it does sound right. Just remove the rear control panel cover.

Most likely it was a power surge or the control board has gone bad by itself. Not possible to check it instrumentally.

I was using one burner and the oven when the arc occurred. Nothing else in house showed evidence of a power surge. My dilemma now is whether or not to spend the $161.00 on the part (plus tax and shipping) or to buy a new stove. How can I be sure that when I plug in the new board, that the oven or elements won't cause this to happen again? Any thoughts?

You can check the heating elements for continuity and check them for continuity to the ground.

If it's in good condition then it's probably worth to fix it. Your decision also should be based on price for a new one.
