I have a whirlpool oven that when pressing the BAKE button it goes straight too broil and to 500F. I can adjust the temp but if i sit there and press bake / cancel for several minutes, I can sometimes get it to bake and it will work fine. What could be the matter and how do I test for it.

Here are your parts Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL RBS305PDQ4 | AppliancePartsPros.comHere is the tech sheet http://www.servicematters.com/d...0Sheet%20-%204454766.pdfSounds like the control board is toast as it is doing strange things. I would try the following just in case something has contaminated the keypad connection and is confusing the board. This is a long shot. Also have you removed power from the unit for 20 minutes or so just to see if the board will reset. Connector Cleaning / Checking Unplug the unit Open it up Remove the ribbon cable from the keypad to the control board at the control board. Clean the edge connector. If it is the type where there is not a connector just the insulation is removed, it can be cleaned with a pencil eraser. Do not use an ink eraser as it is too abrasive. Check the tracks in the ribbon cable for hairline cracks. A magnifying glass helps here. Would not hurt to clean the connector on the board. Use electronics contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush. Be gentle and do not reconnect till all the solvent evaporates. Reconnect everything and give it a try. |
