When I set the oven temperature to say 350 degrees and the display indicates it has achieved that temperature, one time it will read 250 on an oven thermostat I purchased and another time 400, varing widely on each attempt. If the difference were constant, I could adjust it as it describes in the book, but it is always a different temperature.
I would normally replace a thermostat, however this newer model we bought a few years ago doesn't seem to have one. I imagine the control is handled by the Control erc Part Number: AP3957553 in conjunction with the Sensor asm, Part Number: AP3192829.
Is this true, and if so, do I need to just replace the Sensor asm, Part Number: AP3192829?
Thank you for your help.
Thomas

Thomas Good chance it's just the sensor. If you have a ohm meter it should read about 1100 ohms at room temp.
