My oven turns on but will not warm up or get hot. What part do you think it needs?

Answer Hello Tanya. Check and make sure there is 240 volts coming to the unit. If so, you will need to check the wiring and make sure it is good, and the thermal overload 9759243 on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
We are having temperature problems with our double ovens. We set the oven to 350 and within 8 minutes the oven beeps and the control panel says 350 but a reading taken inside the oven says 225 degrees. If we wait about 20 additional minutes the reading in the oven reaches 325 degrees. This has been repeated in each oven and both are providing the same results. Any ideas on where we should start the trouble shooting process?

Answer Ken,
You will first want to check the oven sensors to make sure that they are good. You will want to do a resistance check on the sensors. At 70 degrees the sensor should ohm out at 1080 ohms and at 350 degrees the sensors should be about 1654 ohms. If not within this range then the sensor should be replaced. If the sensors check ok then you will want to test the wiring for the sensors back to control board.

Answer Nikola, Can you hear or see the bake or broil igniters in the oven clicking or sparking ? You may have a failed DSI spark module W10331686 or gas valve W10293048. You'll need to get a multi meter and test the circuits and voltages to the components.First thing, check and make sure the power cord is attached to a properly polarized and grounded 120 VAC outlet. A proper ground is very important for the range to operate properly.Then you'll... more need to make several tests at the gas distribution valve. You'll need a multi meter to test voltage and resistances. At the valve body terminals, with the wires labeled and remove from the middle terminal to each of the outer terminals, you should read 215 ohms resistance. With the wires reconnected, when you select the bake cycle, you should have a reading of 8 to 18 VDC across the red and orange wires. When you make a broil selection you should have the same 8 to 18 VDC,across the orange and blue wires. If all checks are proper(within 10%) repalce the oven bake and broil igniter. Here's a link to meter usage should you need it
