Thermal Overload

Blaine for Model Number rbs307pvb00

Answer Blaine, You will want to first check to make sure that there is power. Access the control board and check from L1 to bake to see if you are getting 240 vac with the unit set to bake. If you are then your control board is bad and will need to be replaced. If not then you will want to check to make sure that the thermal fuse is not open. 

Eric for Model Number Whirlpool oven rbs275pdb6

Answer Hello Eric. Try removing the ribbon cable from the control board and clean it rubbing alcohol and see if it starts to work. If not, then the control panel 4451333 is bad on the unit. This part has been permanently discontinued by the manufacturer and we don't know of any source or replacement for the part. 

Bill B for Model Number GMC305PDS6

Answer Hello Bill. You will need to check the magnetron, diode, and HV transformer in the unit. The diode should only read in one direction. The magnetron, less than 1 ohm and no cracked magnets. If both are good, then the transformer is bad. 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 

Michael M. for Model Number GBS277PRB00

Answer Hello Michael. If there is no continuity through the overload, you will need to replace the overload 9759243 on the unit. 

Michael M. for Model Number GBS277PRB00

Answer Hello Michael. If all the other parts are good, then you will need to order and replace the electronic control W10340935 on the unit. 

Mark for Model Number rbd305pdq12

Answer Mark, If the control board has power getting to it then the thermal overload would not be the problem. You can test the thermal overload by doing a continuity test. No continuity means that it is bad but your problem will be in the control unit.
