Where is thermostat located in Frigidaire wall oven?

thermostat is bad

Good Morning James, thanks for your post!

From my understanding your broiler feature is not working on your Frigidaire wall oven and the element is good. It could be a potential issue with the thermostat or connector of wall oven. If there is a miscommunication within the wall oven you may be able to perform a reset to clear the issues. If you would like to attempt a reset you would need to flip the household circuit breaker off for roughly ten minutes. If that does not correct your issue I would recommend contacting a professional technician for assistance in diagnosing your wall oven. Hope this is helpful. -Matt

Hello Bruce Hubley, thanks for your post!

Based off the information you have provided your Frigidaire wall oven will not heat up higher than 400 degrees. It may be a problem with your thermostat or control panel. I would recommend performing a reset on your oven and you can do that by disconnecting power from your oven for roughly ten minutes. If this does not help correct your issue I would suggest having a professional come out to provide the proper repairs on your oven. Best of luck! -Matt

Hello Chris Hammond, thanks for your post!

Based off the information you have provided it sounds like a potential problem with your connector for your element within your Frigidaire wall oven. I would recommend reaching out to a professional technician for proper diagnosis repair to help avoid any unnecessary part purchases. Best of luck! -Matt

Good Morning a_t_pearson, this is Z. Thank you for your post! I understand that the thermostat is broken on your top Frigidaire oven; therefore I'm assuming that you have a double-wall oven. If so, please help me understand what you are referring to by thermostat? Is your oven not preheating or reaching desire temperature? Are you speaking about the bake and/or broil elements not heating? May I please have your model number? The serial tag, which lists your model number, is typically located on the front of the oven, on the left side, as you open the door. With this information I can better address the issue at hand. Thank you!

The oven gets extremely hot during the self clean cycle, and it is common for it to trip the high limit thermostat located in the rear of the oven. If the problem happens when not in self clean, then you may have a weak high limit, or a bad temperature probe.The switch is located on the upper back left side of the oven. Here is a diagram of the oven. The switch is #119.http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/frame_diagram.aspx?diagram_id=903528&pkw_=basket&model_id=5160477&NewWindow=1
Here is a link to the thermal switch in case you can't rest the one on your unit.http://www.appliancepartspros.com/Appliance-Parts/frigidaire-switch--thermal-item-number-ap2126993.aspx
Try to do the reset and post back your results.

Hello.
You can replace the thermostat or merely remember the variation and always compensate for it. This is a common problem with oven thermostats. J.

Normally you should have an appliance spare parts supplier in your area. They generally stock all range of spares for all appliances. You need to pull plug out of the wall and remove the panel covering the wiring to gain access to the oven thermostat. Look carefully on the body of the thermostat and record any numbers you see on a sticker that's present. Then remove knob off in front of thermostat and see if there is a nut attached to the centre which holds the thermostat in position or if there are 2 screws holding the thermostat in place. Use this information to order the thermostat also quoting the oven model number.

This is ovenmad from the previous post. I had a repair guy come out and he found the problem to be the Safety Thermostat. When tripped, this allows everything to work on the oven except the elements. He did not have the part with him so will return in 6 days to replace it. That should solve the problem. No idea why it tripped. The safety thermostat is located on the rear of the oven so we will have to pull out the oven to replace the thermostat. Again, this was a Frigidaire Single Electric Wall Oven made in 2004. Hope this helps somebody else.
