My wife and I have a Frigidaire Gallery FGGF3054MFF gas stove with the electronic control panel. It has been working flawlessly since we moved into our new home. Given the prior owners purchased it soon before we move in, I would estimate that it is 3 to 4 years old. Anyway, it was functioning fine until today when my wife attempted to bake a pizza. When she went to set the oven temperature after hitting the bake button, the 4 button would beep 3to 4 times instead of entering the number 4. I was able to enter other temperatures without hitting the 4 button but, when I hit start, it would clear the screen and go back to the time. I was encountering the exact same issue when I was trying to reset the clock - the four button caused the screen to clear to the set time and the start button did the same.
Unfortunately, this issue has rendered the oven inoperable. I've tried a few quick fixes such as holding the clear button and unplugging the oven, but none have fixed the issue.
Is my control panel fried or on the way to being fried? Could this have been caused by smashing multiple buttons at the time same? We had our house cleaned and I believe the oven, including control panel, was scrubbed vigorously, and the oven did not have this problem the day before.
Any help would be appreciated - based on the information I am finding, the cost for this type of issue seems expensive!

I tried some different searches on Google and found the fix for this problem.
If you are having problems with certain keys, and not the control panel as a whole, you may have problems with the key panel contact. Here is what you do:
1. Unplug the oven; 2. Remove upper panel to reveal control panel; 3. Unscrew control panel; 4. (Optional) remove plugs in back on control panel - for me, this made it easier to work on the control panel and keyboard, less stuff in your way; 5. Carefully begin to peel back the keyboard from the control panel - you will see the full digital numbers on the display located on the control panel itself 6. There are two layers to the keyboard, pull them apart very carefully in the same manner you removed the keyboard from the control panel 7. Find keys that are causing you problems on the two separate pieces of the keyboard where they sandwich together; 8. Clean these keys thoroughly - you may be able to remove some grime from adhesive seeping into these keys 9. Reassemble
It worked for me! I think the keys were sticking after it was scrubbed or was hit by some steam causing the adhesive to melt and solidify.
