On my Whirlpool AccuBake oven, it will heat up as normal and kick off when its reached the set temperature. When the oven temp drops, the heat kicks back on to re-heat up to the set temp. This works for the first few minutes of cooking, but then it doesn't kick back on to re-heat up to the set temperature. It seems to not work properly the longer I use it or the higher the temp. I can hear the thing click a few times, like its trying to kick back on, but then it just doesn't fire up. Any suggetions?
Thanks!

Quote:Model Number: Super Capacity 465 I'm afraid that is not the model number and we need it to identify the appliance in question. If you post the model number we can at least look it up to see what appliance design you're dealing with. You can find tips for locating the model and serial number identification tag on your appliances at the following link: LINK > Model Number Tag Location GuideJFYI Dan O. www.Appliance411.com

Quote:Model number is SF379LEKQ Great, now we know it is a GAS range. Quote:I can hear the thing click a few times, like its trying to kick back on, but then it just doesn't fire up. With the DSI ignition system used on your model the spark module will allow the oven ignitor to spark for 4 seconds. A 30 second pause will then occur, after which time it will attempt to light the burner again. If gas still fails to ignite, the microcomputer will then lock the system out. So to me it sounds like the gas isn't being lit or no gas is being released into the burner at that time. I don't know how you'll be able to check for possible causes. You might need to call in a professional to diagnose the possibilities for you. Sorry. JMO Dan O. www.Appliance411.com

I have the same symptoms on my accu-bake 465. I took out the panel at the bottom of the oven, and I can hear it clicking as if to re-ignite to maintain temperature, but there is no visible spark when the over tries to start up again. This is sporadic as some times it is fine. It seems like the spark module may be intermittently failing; do these modules generally fail slowly, or just all at once.
I once felt that I improved the situation by removing some of the cookie sheets stored underneath as they may have been interfering with the wire going to the spark module.
