The display on our oven is very dim, the only part of the display that shows anything is the clock, the oven still seems to work, but some of the numbers on the keypad do not function.
I was going to order the control kit, which includes the display head, main power relay, and the harness keypad.
If I change all that, the problem should be fixed?
TIA
Hi gtbdevs
Yes, you need to replace the control kit. part number [COLOR=#0000ff]AP3382408[/COLOR]
Be very careful removing the control panel. It is very heavy and if it falls down, the plug for the control panel circuit board could break off.
Good luck.
Gene.
Thanks, I did order those parts, and did the replace, all is working A.OK.
Glen
Good job!
Gene.
I fixed the dim panel problem with that replacement kit, and all was well for a couple months. Then, since a self clean, the upper oven won’t heat at all. The display panel seems good, the exhaust fan works well. The lower oven is fine.
Did I damage the new control board, or is there a fried thermostat somewhere?
Hello Jeff,
It suppose to be a resettable hi limit thermostat which prevents the oven from overheating. It should be on top of the upper oven, on the right side of the door latch assembly. To reset it you have to push the red button in the middle of the thermostat.
Good luck.
Gene.
That reset button was the answer. Thanks! Now how about my Thermador cooktop – I posted this in another thread:
Every day, the first time you try to use the range (six star burners, two are xlo) all six igniters click perfectly, but there is NO gas flow to any burner. Sometimes for a few minutes of clicking.
Finally, the gas starts to flow to all “on” burners. Then, we are good for the rest of the day–turn the knob, 1 or two clicks and gas flows and lights perfectly.
What to do???
Hi Jeff
Most likely the problem with your stove is a bad gas pressure regulator.
Post the complete model number and I might be able to give you more specific information.
Gene.
The cooktop is Thermador PCS366US, six star burners total, two are XLO, natural gas with a regulator mounted in the kitchen cabinet under the unit.
I am having a similar issue.
It started out with a bad lamp transformer. None of the oven lamps lit. I replaced the transformer, then only the lower oven would work.
I then replaced the main power board only. The panel was dim for the top oven and fine for the lower. I assumed the resistor included on the new board caused this. As the oven was used, the panel got dimmer to the point of being unreadable. The lamps don’t work again now either.
I noticed that the Maytag display AP367514 looks very simlar to the display of the thermador.
Are they the same? Could I save $100 by getting just the Maytag display head.
thanks
Good idea and I wish it would but unfortunately it’s not going to work.
Gene.

Gene, I too am having the same problems. Is it advisable to buy the entire kit or should I just buy and install the relay board saving $110?
If I buy from appliancepartspros.com what is the return policy? If I buy the relay and find I need the display too will they exchange the relay for the kit and credit me the diffference?
What would you recommend?[/B]

g5reality,
All your questions should be addressed to the Appliance Parts Pros customer service (877-477-7278).

Gene,
My oven is a GSC30CV. First my display went out. I don’t recall it getting dimmer. I sent the display off to get repaired since the part is no longer available. They suggested I replace the power relay, which I did with part #[COLOR=#000000]AP2837330. That worked for about a month, then the display started getting dim. Now in the right light I can read the time, but not the temp. When it was going dim I could flip the breaker and give it a few minutes and then flip the power back on and the display would work long enough to set the temp. Now that doesn’t work. [/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]Will the control kit you mention here work with my oven? If not, is there something else I should be doing?[/COLOR]
Hi Derek,
The kit listed above is not good for your range. The only way you can try is contact people from PCBR.BIZ and ask if they can rebuild the old part. If they can not then you have to look for a new range.
Gene.
Thanks for answering.
I did things out of order. I already sent the display in to be repaired/rebuilt, when that didn’t work I replaced the power relay. That worked for about a month. I am going to replace the power board again and check the wiring. Are you saying that the “dimming” is related to the display (not the power relay) and I should send it off to get repaired/rebuilt again?
If another display worked with the GSC30CV, I would love to get a new one instead of having to deal with sending in the part to get repaired.
Hi Derek,
Based on my experience, “dimming” is related to display boards (couple capacitors on the board). I can not provide more accurate information because I never fixed them myself.
Parts like displays designed for some specific models and they are not interchangeable.

I have same problem but the display is totally black. Thermador has stopped making the display bd AP3382408. I took the board and out and tested the capacitors and they seemed to power up and release. I noted in the top left corner a burned out spot where a small light is located. Could this be my problem and if so can it be replaced. I see noway to access it or remove it. Thanks.

What is the complete model number of the oven?
