All my controls are blinking on my kenmore elite counter cooktop

Here is a link. On the right side of that page is a link to contact Kenmore for assistance with their products. Good luck.

The white one may just form an earth loop,, I recently had a ceramic plate needing cleaned so we did the whole lot, I think most hobs have 4 wires and they are numbered rather than colour coded..hope this helps

Try http://www.managemylife.com/mmh/installation_guides, specifically /133509/KENMORE-ELITE-Counter-Unit-Gas-1009556L?brand_name_search=32353. As a countertop fabricator that is where I locate all the manuals for Sears appliances. All the other appliance companies make it easy to find them on their websites... Sears not so much.

You can do this by:
Check the oven display to see whether the screen says "LOC." When "LOC" is displayed, the oven lock is activated and the door cannot be opened. You need to make sure it is locked so you do not mistakenly lock the door.

2 Press and hold the "Stop" button on the oven control panel until "LOC" disappears from the display. Some oven models have a button marked "Oven Lock," which should be used instead of the "Stop" button.

Lock the oven again by pressing and holding the "Stop" or "Oven Lock" button until "LOC" appears in the display

Thanks for posting to Fixya I will be helping you today. You have posted that you have a Kenmore Elite 44173 electric cooktop with a problem. However, you also mention your are having trouble with the oven not working. This post maybe categorized wrong but I will try to answer you question for both a range and oven control.

Sometimes on a cooktop customers will lockout the controls on accident while cleaning. Usually there is a button on the control that you hold for 4 seconds +/- and there is a little simbol of a padlock next to it or you might have to check the owners manual.

Lastly, Ranges may also have a lock out feature that the customer must press 4 seconds too unlock. On select models controls may also be locked out by putting their oven into sabbath mode. Usually the display will indicate a "SAB" to alert that this feature has been set.

*In general the above instructions should help if your unit is locked out.

Happy Holidays!
"Please rate this information "4 thumbs" if you found informational.

I think you have entered "Sabbath Mode" which blanks the display ... check your owners manual to see how to exit this mode.

If it was the burner element it either would work or not (no in between)
It has to be the switch

Sorry - this is not an answer but a question. Did you get your problem resolved. We just purchased a induction stove & oven and are having the same problem you described. Could you let me know what happened. Regards Bob

There are a series of holes in the burner leading down from the main flame area to the pilot tube, ensure the holes are not plugged/restricted.
