Need control for frigidiare upper oven model rbe-97n

order one fixya doesnt sell products

I assume it is the bake element. These are very easy to replace. make sure the power is off and you can access the screws from the oven cavity. remove the screws, pull gently on the element. If the wires are long enough you should be able to disconnect them or unscrew the wires from the terminals. reattach the wires to the new element. reinsert it back in place and there you go.

The thermostat for the upper element has gone bad. Needs to be replaced.

Hello,
Their is a high limit thermostat that has tripped,on older model and on some newer models it has a red button on it that can be pushed in to reset it.Other times once it goes out it must be replaced.
For the upper oven its behind the control panel,for the lower its behind the grill between upper and lower oven

I hope this helps you to understand why your oven wont heat,

I trust the door is sealed correctly. If heat is escaping this could be the problem. If the seal is okay the only thing it could be is the oven thermostat controller. It sounds like it is faulty and needs replacing.

Normally when a power surge lands a direct hit on a non protected circuit board, it will usually fry it completely. you can confirm this by shutting down the power for 5 minutes. if the control doesn't respond after the 5 minutes of no power, this will confirm circuit failure due to the surge and, you will need to replace the board in this case.

Fan is automatically controled by a thermostat.
Please don't bother rating, as anything but a Fix-Ya lowers my scorel. Thanks.

im to assume that this happened while self cleaning, sonds as if you have had a high limit thermostat go bad adn has shut down oven function( depending on model there is also a fuse inline with the main control panel to protect it from the heat/ power surge, unit will need to be pulled out to acess fuse behind the unit

I have an O'Keefe & Merritt double oven gas stove. The model number is 72 7242 23. The upper oven is about the size of a large microwave and sits above the range burners. The lower (full-size) oven is below the burner unit and includes a broiler draw below it.
So, when you say, double oven, I wonder if you are just talking about the main oven with broiler drawer (both of which are below the burner unit.)

Mine was a builder-supplied appliance in the new house we purchased in 1986. The upper oven has never performed very well. And, yes the upper oven can only be used for baking.

I have an instruction manual for it, but it doesn't provide that much information. Getting parts for it is extremely difficult, since Tappan is no longer manufacturing this brand. (I've been trying to locate a flat oven ignitor for the upper oven and can't seem to find a replacement that's the same 6-1/3" length.) In the 1980s Tappan apparently purchased O'Keefe & Merritt and marketed this brand for several years. Models originally manufactured by O'Keefe & Merritt in the 1930s-1950s are considered collectible antique stoves!

if you feel through the insulation you can find the two wires that attach to the element pull them through to plug the element back on but there is no plug per say but first are you sure the element is good were there no wires on the element when you removed it should have been two spade connectors with wires on them attached to the element hold my rating till you reply
