Upon starting the oven in any either bake mode (convection or not) or roast mode, display reads setpoint temperature for 5 seconds, then changes to "Lo" and won't heat. In any other mode (either broil and clean) the display stays at the fixed temperature, but still no heat. This began happening immediately after a self clean cycle which ran normally. Think it could be the temp sensor got cooked?

The first thing I would do is remove the oven from the cabinet and check the oven shutdown thermal fuse (#37 on the break down diagram) for continuity. Replace if it's open. Post the results. Here are the break down diagrams for the Kitchen Aid oven Model KEBS107DBL7Gene.

Thanks Gene - I pulled the oven, found the wiring diagram inside and indeed found the thermal fuse to have infinite resistance. Disconnected it, retried starting the oven, and got same symptoms, so a new fuse is on it's way.

Installed new thermal fuse; oven operates normally now. Thanks for the quick response and guidance, Gene.

I'm glad you were able to fix it.
