Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question#$%^

It appears your Ignitor has failed in this instance.

For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...


FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.

PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.


If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.


Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.

If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.

Self Cleaning Oven Problem

heatman101

Asker's Testimonial " Wish I had read this first. I never would have used the self cleaning option. Thanks for the info!! " - amymrocks

It is usually always an infinite switch, Rarely is it a surface element. The fact that the power light does not go on is also a good clue that your switch is bad. If it was a problem with the wiring to the element, your light would be on. When you order the switch, ask for the exact origional replacement. They have some generic switches that have shafts that have to be broken off to the right size for your range. These are not as reliable as the origional which usually has a much stronger shaft. Good Luck, Appliance Specialists.

try holding the door switch closed and press cancel. that usualy takes care of it. if that doesnt work send your model number out and this will help.

What your going to have to do is replace the infinate control for that burner. ( thats the control you turn to sw it from high to low heat )
good luck

It will be alright just dont put it on top of the burner

This is a link to show you the retaining clip that holds the light cover on !!

times quoted seem about right and don't suppose your old oven was much different. element ratings don't vary much for same size ovens

If your oven has the hidden bake element then it is probably working properly. A standard oven with an exposed bake element will usually take about 12-15 minutes to preheat. The hidden element models take a little longer but they usually heat a little more evenly.
Post back if you have any more questions.

those codes indicate a bad oven sensor or the wiring to it

to exit sab mode press and hold the "cook time" and "delay start " pads for 3-5 secs. the letters "sab" will appear in display and your good to go!
