I need to replace my control panal, part number AP3767567. Where do I get instructions on how to take out the old one and install a new one?
Thanks

Hi Grant,

Open the lower oven door. Remove the screw holding the each side trim (#2 on the oven break down diagram) and remove both side trims by pulling them from the bottom toward yourself and down to release from the control panel tabs.

Remove the screw on each side of the control panel. Pull the bottom of the control panel toward yourself and upward to release it from the side tabs.

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool oven Model RBD275PDQ8

Thanks Gene. Sounds like something I can handle. Let me ask you if you agree that the problem I'm having is potentially due to the control board. The oven display (clock) quit working. I pushed all the buttons and nothing worked (timer, oven, etc). I turned thebreaker off, then back on again. Still no displays. I called a repair guy who came out the next day. He pushed the button to start the top oven and the display lit up with 350. He pushed the start upper oven button and the oven started. He pushed the clock button and the clock displayed. He said well it's working now. He thought it might be the control board. He said it might be bad, or you may never have another problem. It has since gone out again for about a day, but agiain it all started working again. It's been OK now for about a 2 weeks.
Do you think that if the display keeps going out, that the first thing to try is to replace the control board?
Thanks for your help!

Grant,

Most likely the problem is a bad control power transformer (#7 on the break down diagram) and not the control board.

- The part number for the transformer is AP3968801

Wow, if the problem returns I'll try that first, It's a whole lot cheaper. I can't tell from the diagram where this assembly is or how to get to it. But based on the description (top venting parts) I'm guessing that it's the vent that it is on the top when you open that top door? Is it just a matter of taking the screws out of the plate (number 13)? Then what? Just pull the whole thing out?
Thanks

The transformer is located behind the control panel. The part number I posted first was wrong and I fixed it.

Behind the contol panal? The diagram shows it's part of the top venting assembly???

The top venting assembly is behind the control panel.
