Whirlpool Wall Oven not working

Sounds like either you tripped the 220 breaker in your household electric panel, or a fuse located on the oven's control board. (service man)

most common problems:
1. calrod unit not working(heating element) easy replacement
2. breaker tripped.(sometimes a double breaker will only trip one of the circuit breakers so you end up with half power)
good luck

Ovens run on a 220 Volt circuit. That is two 110 Volt wires in reality, one from each side of the main. If one line is tripped only part of the oven will work. Check the Main for a tripped circuit. The range breaker should have a metal bar or pin connecting both halves of the breaker. If not it can trip on one side only. If you installed the "pig tail" yourself, turn off the main oven breaker and double check your connections. Black on each side (one may be red) and white wire in the middle. Neutral ground wire to metal plate of fixture.

If the power connections are correct and your panel still does not work it will probably need replacing. Do not open the access panel if it is under warranty (breaking a warranty seal will void the warranty) or you are not qualified to work on the wiring. It is better to call a tech without opening it. If you have opened it and then call a tech it will probably cost much more to fix as they will have to check ALL the circuits to be sure you have not damaged it.

Since it is a wall mounted unit be sure to check the wire for adequate slack and that it does not get crushed when the oven is installed. Metal Flex conduit is recommended (and may required in your area) between the wall supply box and the oven to protect the wire from shorting or damage.

Caution - 220 Volts can easily kill a person.

Ouch...sounds like the control module is blown. Thats the electronic timer. I've known this happen on several occasions. Bad luck!

Make sure there's power getting to your range, oven or cooktop. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or a blown fuse. Check the wall socket for power with a voltmeter or by plugging something else in.


A faulty igniter is probably the most common cause, however there are others:

-- defective thermostat
-- defective selector switch
-- defective gas safety valve/coil assembly

Make sure there's power getting to your range, oven or cooktop. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or a blown fuse. Check the wall socket for power with a voltmeter or by plugging something else in.

If all check out ok with all the above, replace the ERC

my kenmore double oven model 41165 has no power....its hardwired 40 amp....it stopped working when it was cooling down after the slf cleaning cycle..we had a storm and had a minute power outage. Finakky got the door open but it wont turn on at all. Tried the breakers but i stll get no power....no even the bulb.......thanks....

baked control module for heating elements. if you have a volt meter, check for power when oven on, if no juice its the control element, if you do get juice then its the elements

disconnect the wires going to the oven ignitor,turn the unit on see if its trips.if so the ignitor is shorted if not then disconnect the wires that go to the coil of the gas valve and do the same.i think either one of these is your problem.also if theres a fan in the oven do the same.

I found the lower circuit breaker had been tripped. That didn't fix the problem but upon further inspection whoever had worked on the unit years ago had dropped a screwdriver that had lodged between the oven wall and the rear casing and shorted out the lower heating element. I removed the screwdriver and oven works fine now. I don't think that will solve the cmmclow problem but maybee the curcuit breaker is tripped.
