I recently used the self-clean option on my top oven and after the cycle was complete, I no longer got any heat from either element. You wouldn't know it since the controls and fans seem to operate, it's just that the oven doesn't get hot. The bottom oven, which i didn't self-clean, is working fine. I see others have a similiar problem after using the self-clean option. Does this make sense? Are there 2 thermal fuses per oven?
Any help would be appreciated! I don't think this is something I may be able to fix myself.
Thanks!
Cindy

Hi Cindy
Most likely the problem with your oven is a blown thermal cut off due to very high temperature during the self clean. In order to replace the part, the oven has to be removed from the cabinet.
If you are ready to do it yourself, I need you to post the complete model number of the oven. You can find it on the right side of the upper oven door frame.
Gene.

Thanks Gene for the prompt response! I have seen a few problems with this oven following self clean. I am not going to fix it myself, unfortunately will have to call someone in to do it. Glad to understand the problem however was not by me touching something.

Hi Gene, I'm looking for directions how to replace the thermal fix on my Whirlpool double wall oven model #RBD306PDQ10. The bottom oven has stopped heating following a self clean cycle. The fan and the control panel are still working. I purchased a Thermal Fix part number: 1061375 Part 1061375 from RepairClinic.comThinking I was purchasing from your site, but apparently I was not. Can you tell me if I purchased the right part or do I need a Thermal Fuse (part#: AP3110028)? Also, I need directions on how to replace. Thanks so much! Amy talleyklotz at hotmail dot com

...Also, I need directions on how to replace... You purchased the correct part but looks like you overpaid a lot. Appliance Parts Pros part number for this thermal cut-off is AP3030381 and you could buy it for just $31.65 You have to remove the oven from the cabinet and remove the rear cover to access this part. Here are the break down diagrams and Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL RBD306PDQ10 | AppliancePartsPros.comGene.

Thanks Man! Oh yes and thanks for pointing out the extra 15 bucks I shelled out ;-)
Ok, so I was on the right track. Thanks for the diagram.
You guys rock btw and I was surprised that I hadn't ordered it from you... I must have gotten interrupted by a screaming kid or something and came back to the wrong page. My bad.

I just wanted to say that this is a correct and easy fix. Don't be afraid to do it yourself. It took me 10 mins and the help of my husband's muscles to fix and now I've done it for 2 of my neighbors.
This forum is awesome!
