First time to run the self cleaning option. Went to use the oven and neither the broiler or the oven elements will work. When I set the temp. and hit enter you can hear it actuating but no heat. Barely 2 yrs. old. HELP!

It is mounted on the back of the oven under the back sheet metal. It will shut down the elements(permanently) in my case. It is about the size of a quarter and about 3/4 in. tall. Has two connectors on it with a red wire in and out. If the temps. get too high between the oven and the sheet metal backing it pops. Cost me $36 from App. Parts Pros and it was $55-60 locally. Mine is a KitchenAid which is Whirlpool I believe. The part is color coded for the shut down temp. Mine was 302 F. Hope this helped you. Let me know. Phil

I found that after reading through forums, that that was the problem i was having, so that was the part I started with. apparently wirlpools have an overheating issue. I too purchased that part from appliance parts, and replaced it. still no heat in the oven though. I am going to go check some more electrical connections today. I am hoping it is still something simple, the stove is only two years old. thanks for your quick response.

Mine are F01 the temp. sensor is opened: F02 is welded element relays: F05 is door or latch problems: F06 is electronic control malfunction. Phil

Gene. It works fine. I guessed right. The salesman with my appliance supply house locally told me that it usually happens with the built in units with no ventilation allowing the temps. to get too high. Phil

I'm glad you were able to fix it. Be careful with the self clean next time. It's better not to use it at all.
Gene.
