It worked for me but it was not like I was pushing the red button in. It seemed to be in the same place before and after I reset it.

you can purchase these parts through www.repairclinic the valve you need is $97.50

There is a calibration procedure you can do using the oven control panel to adjust the thermostat but the most adjustment you can make is no more then 35 degrees either way so if it is over 35 degrees off then it is too far out to calibrate 100%.

Press bake then select a temp of 500 or higher then quickly press and hold the bake button for 5 seconds until "00" is displayed. Then press the up/down arrow to move it in 5 degree increments. Once selected press cancel/secure button.

Using the calibration methods will allow you to adjust the temp closer to the true temp you are reading. Make sure you are using a reliable tempature gauge using a thermocouple(like a fluke meter) at the center rack and give at least 10 minute warm-up before taking the reading. Electric ovens produce a pretty even tempature but it can vary some when the electric coil come on and off. The cheap oven guages that you place in the oven are not very accurate and not dependable. I would verify the tempature is off with a thermocouple based temp guage before calling it out of calibration. Don't trust the actual reading of the digital read out...not very reliable. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Use chisel and hammer.

it could be the oven temp sensor rod located near the top of the inside of the oven,or possibly the bake element has a hot spot on the element and can no longer pass enough current thru this spot to correctly heat to your settings a hot spot on the element will look discolored in this area

replace the heating element

More than likely your not going to be able to find a part once its been discontinued, especially if its been that way for a while, but there is an alternative though. There are companies that specialize in rebuilding control boards, etc that have been discontinued and are no longer available. I would contact a company like appliance parts depot or another major distributor because they will have the numbers you'll need to contact those companies, but remember, whatever the cost of the part was is nothing compared to the cost they charge to remake the part.

I don't see the make and model number of your unit. I only see part of your post. Please post the make and model number. It should be a simple fix. From what I do see in your post, it sounds like the control board will need to be replaced.Regards,Richard

Hello,

There have been numerous oven control systems used over the years. The following instructions describe various methods that might be employed to correct such a condition.

In almost all cases if the temperature reading is more than 35°F out, some part of the control system will need to be repaired. Usually adjustment will not provide an adequate solution to the condition and may even make it worse.

Before attempting any kind of adjustment on a hydraulic oven control, make sure the thermostat's sensor bulb is properly mounted in the oven cavity and not touching the oven wall or metal rack. The sensor bulbs are held about 1/2" away from the oven wall by a small metal clip.

Dial type control

Some models have the calibration adjustment on the underside of the knob itself. On this type of arrangement, the loosening of the dial plate and moving it one way or the other will change the temperature reading on the dial once reinstalled.


Other control designs have the temperature calibration screw down the center of the shaft. These usually require a special small screwdriver to access it. See below for a link to a detailed calibration method for one brand of oven thermostat.


Electronic Control Calibration

The following procedures are designed to provide an general idea how calibration adjustment of the oven temperature display on many electronically controlled (ERC/EOC) ranges and ovens is done. The actual procedures vary from model to model so check your owner's manual.

If the temperature is out more than 35°F, the oven sensor or the electronic control may need to be replaced to correct the inaccuracy.

General

Press BAKE

Select a temperature of 550

Quickly (within 5-seconds of setting 550) press and hold the BAKE button approximately 5-15† seconds until "00" or the previously entered temperature adjustment is displayed.

†Pressing longer could cause an F0, F1 or F7 error to be displayed.

Press the UP/DOWN arrow button or turn the set knob to change the oven temperature in 5° increments to a maximum of +/- 35°

Press the CLEAR or OFF button to return to normal operation.

Hoping this will help to solve the problem....
