Hi,
I have a one year and 2 month old KitchenAid KEMC308KSS03 Wall oven/microwave combination.
After a self cleaning cycle the oven would not heat again. Eveything else works fine the microwave, controls, etc.
The problem is the thermal limiter switch that KitchenAid used. It is a one shot thermal limiter that opens if the back of the oven goes above 120degrees C and does not reset when it cools down.
The KitchenAid PN is 9759243 BUT don't replace it with the same part if you have this problem. KitchenAid want $84 for this silly thing and it a piece of junk. Buy a PN 317-1368-ND from DigiKey Inc. 1-800-344-4539. This is a 120 degree C thermal limit switch but it will RESET itself when the oven cools down so if it happens again you won't have to pull the oven. This part cost s $6.60 from DigiKey and is a much better part than the original one from KitchenAid.
The switch is on the back of the lower oven, there is a cover that comes off and you will see it screwed to the back with two wires connected to it with faston terminals. It is an easy permanent fix for this problem.
KitchenAid is ABSOLUTELY NO HELP with this (as ususal).
I hope this helps.

The first thing to do is turn off the power or pull the unit out and un plug it. Then remove the back panel.chekc the wiring to the bake element if the wiring is in good shape then remove the wires from the element and use a volt meter and check the continuity.If the is no continuity then replace the bake element.if the element is goood then you will need to replace the main electronic/clock timer.

It is possible that there is a leak on the jet nozzle control system as the gas seems to escape into the burner.
This is not good and you need to take immediate action to rectify the LEAK.
it is important to shut down the connection and use compressed air to test, remove and replace the damaged control unit.

What will not turn on? Anything? Cooktop? Control Display?

316560163 is the main control and it will be damaged due to a miswire either at the house and/or terminal block. On the terminal block, there is supposed to be 240+/-volts from outside to outside. 120+/-from either outside to the middle.
What happens when you plug it back in?

Hi,
The new stove may work but you may also blow the breaker/ fuse which ever you have... make sure to leave the 40 amp fuses or breaker in the box as the wiring will not be heavy enough to support a larger amp. fuse or breaker... that will start a fire!
You may find that you just cannot run all of the burners and the oven or broiler at the same time.
