can't find the model number It is a simple model with no extras no clock involved. When I turn the dial to the oven the only place it turns on is just above 450 degrees it does preheat and I can bake some with biscuits and cookies but I really have to watch it they brown really fast on the bottm. I am not sure if the dial it self needs replaced or thermostat. I would love to figure out where the model number is I bought this about 2008 from Menards and I selected not alot of gadgets so it may have less to break down about it. I thought buying it new would also be a plus for me. I really need some help here if you can direct me to the right part I would appreciate it. Thank you for your time Trudy Utterback

Trudy U for Model Number Amana Electric stove

Answer Trudy, Before you replace anything, check and make sure the control knobs have not been reversed, by accident (If you have the thermostat knob on the selector switch, or visa versa) you'll get cooking results just like you're describing. Without a model number it's pretty difficult to get you parts and service information. Depending on the age of the stove, you may find the production tag on one of the front flanges, when you open the broiler or storage drawer, or it could be under the right front burner element and drip bowl.

How do I install this part? I need instructions on how to replace the valve portion. What screws need to be removed on the valve assembly, and which ones do not need to be removed? On the bottom of the valve there is a channel device with holes in the bottom and the sides. How is this installed in the gas header? I presume the O-ring goes over this channel. The oven I have is in a fifth wheel RV and uses LP gas.

Answer Kenneth, We're sending you some information that should help. In short , once you get the burners, top and manifild cover dismounted. you cal loosen/remove the screws holding the manifold pipe to the frame, you can remove the bolt that secures the thermostat to the manifold pipe from underneath. You may also have to convert the thermostat to LP Gas, by turning the conversion/adjustment screw to point at the "LP" setting.

Temperature goes real high over 600 degrees and the oven knob does not control it at all.

The 3 burners work fine. The oven pilot will not light. Pushed the oven knob in for over a minute. After a while the oven burner did light because the thermocouple was hot enough, but the pilot still did not light. Checked the pilot gas line and it is clear. And oh yes, the oven and coach is 5 years old and this is the first time my wife wanted to use the oven. What could be the issue?

R. A. for Model Number CLY1610BDB

Answer Hi R.A. If the top burners flame is a strong blue with slight or no yellow tips then the gas pressure regulator must be fine. I would first see if the burner and the burner orifice ports are not clogged with debris not allowing proper gas flow. Check all of this with the gas safety valve off. If you still are not to instantly light the oven pilot then replace the complete thermostat part # 74009855. Make sure that while replacing the capillary sensor tubing that you completely straighten it out and curve it as you need to bend it. make sure to re stuff all cavity holes with insulation from a local hardware store so the inner heat don't escape the cavity and burn external wires. Thank you.

The oven temperature goes up to over 600 degrees when the thermostat is set low. Why can I not control the temperature? If I need to replace the thermostat are there any special precautions I need to take. thank you

John for Model Number cly2220bdb

Answer John, Other than being cautious with the tubing connections, don't cross thread the fittings. and checking for gas leaks with soap and water, nothing special, no special instructions to follow. Good Luck and Thanks

The oven pilot will not light. Pushing the oven valve does not allow any gas to flow to oven pilot.

Jc for Model Number MAYTAG CLY1610DBD

Answer JC, You're on the right track. If your sure you have gas supplied to the range, and the top burners work. If you're pressing and holding the thermostat knob at least 30 seconds before attempting top light the oven pilot, then you will need to check the pilot burner gas tube and orifice for clogs and debris, then replace the thermostat. Thanks and Good Luck
