Darkwoods, NO, At this point, you need to be in the back of the range, not the front.
" 1. Unplug range or disconnect power. 2. Turn off gas supply to range.
3. Pull the range out of its mounting location so that you can access the rear of the unit. 4. Remove the rear panel from the unit. 5. Remove the two wire connectors from the oven TOD terminals. 6. Remove the two screws from the oven TOD and remove it".
The TOD, thermal fuse is located in the upper protion of the rear panel, slightly off center to the left.
Power from the line cord, passes through the fuse and into the transformer, from the transformer to the controls. It is a "one shot" fuse. The fuse circuit will open, in the even of an overheat situation, once the fuse is "open" there is no power to the controls, and the oven is inoperable.

Part number: AP3853531
Part number: AP3853531


is the other assembly, under the cooktop. but that's not the concern, at this point. The thermal fuse you need to locate and check or replace is located on the back of the range

Part number: AP3086326
Part number: AP3086326


You'll need to slide the range out of the cabinet, remove the rear cover panel to access and replace it.

The Tech Data Information Sheet may help you out better.

Thanks,

Thanks for the heads Up about the "design flaw". I had the same thing occurr while cleaning. No power & door locked. I called Kitchenaid (whirlpool) explained the symptoms, model & serial# & saw on the web that it was a design flaw.
They are repairing it free -parts & labor in 3 days!
We shall see... If not I know what it is & how! Thx
