Viking oven won't turn on

I had same problem (twice) with my Viking dual fuel range. In my case a relay that supplies power to the oven heating elements failed. The convection fan would run. The elements were warm to the touch. If you have a free standing range, it may be that relay (part number PM010026) which is located in the front of the stove. Remove a long narrow stainless steel panel (1 screw each side) located under where the door hinges. You can hear the relay click when you turn up the oven thermostat. That will help you locate the relay.

Note: Viking does not sell parts. You have to find their parts distributor for your part of the country.

I had a similar problem. The oven light worked and sparks still lit the gas stop top, but both the heating element and broil element did not head up. I removed the door and the chrome panel at the base to reveal the relay.

One of the wires had burned out right where it plugged in to the relay using a quick disconnect plug. There was enough slack in the wire that I pulled it out, stripped to expose fresh wire, attached a new quick disconnect plug, and plugged it back in to the relay. It worked perfectly!

Diagnosing the problem took an hour or two. Fixing it took 10 minutes.

Hey! My oven works except for the clock! Want to sell your clock? =) If not, did you try calling Viking? When I called about my dead clock, they were very helpful (up to the point of sending a replacement clock assembly, then the friendliness faltered a bit). There might be an inline fuse or something that you can replace. Good luck!
