Most likely the problem is a bad (open) oven thermal shut down fuse. It is on the back of the oven and is shown as #37 on the diagram.

The oven has to be removed from the cabinet for the repair.

I discovered that the control panel slowly goes bad. I had to replace my control panel ($321.00) and all works great. Hope this helps.

You are welcome. Unfortunately this is probably the most common problem for those ovens.

Keep us posted.

Thanks! AP3131725 for the black then.

I wished someone had warned me about using that dang self-clean feature. This is a great and helpful forum.

Sounds like the key panel has gone bad. The correction is to replace the control panel. If you need the correct part number then post the color of it.

Black.

Are we talking the membrane layer or the circuit board layer (I saw they wer seperate parts)?

Gene,
I was having the same problem with by RBS305PDB16 after using the self-cleaning cycle for the first time. Also besides not heating, the temperature up button would not function in any mode nor the Cancel Button (had to flip fuse.), oven light button (light works though), or timer.

I replaced the thermal fuse tonight with the part you stated. Now when I hit the bake button, it will preheat to 350 degrees (some progress):) but I still cannot get the above mentioned buttons to work. I can use the Timed Bake button and set it to 1 minute to get it to shut off. I tried cycling the power and even locking/unlocking the keypad but nothing.

Is this all typically part of the same problem/cause or is it multiple problems? Any suggestions?

(in reference to Dan O's note above, I will start a new topic if needed; but that was one of my symptoms and my model so I thought this was on-topic.)

Chuck

rescue_dog01, are you the original poster?

If not you should start a new message of your own with your symptoms/questions and be sure to include the appliance's model number to enable us to look it up to see what appliance design you're dealing with.
