This is probably a real dumb question. but where to you put the leads when measuring. Referencing the attached picture, I took the connector off of the right side. but I am not sure where to put the probe on the left side. the left side is attached to the control panel. Does touching the cylinder thing work?
Thanks

You measure from the right hand side connector to the wire that runs to the control board connection.

FYI: The fuse wires must be between the meter leads.

The left side wire looks a little cruddy so you may have to scrape/sandpaper it a bit to get a good connection to the meter lead.

Measuring to the fuse case is no good.

Thanks for the quick responce. I cleaned the wire and got and infinity reading. So the fuse needs to be replaced. I tried to gentle disconnect the fuse from the control board and it doesn't seem to want to come lose. I didn't want to force it.

If i replace it and it still doesn't work, what are the next steps?

I think this is the fuse you need but double check with the parts people.You will need your model number.
Part number: AP3777386
Part number: AP3777386


There is a pin that holds it in place in a plastic casing. Use a small flat head screw driver to push the pin flat to loosen it from the casing.
Some release from the front others from the back of the connector, the following may help.

Our Whirlpool double oven is dead after self cleaning the bottom over. I saw your instructions for replacing the fuse but the door to the lower oven is locked. Anything I can do to open it?

Gene #2 Post 14 years ago, thanks for posting this! I followed your advice, found the thermo fuse, checked it with a meter, and sure enough it was blown. You saved me tons of money. Was about to buy a new wall oven.
