Slyfox75 for Model Number JGS8860BDP

My Oven will light and heat up. Sometimes it makes the set temperature sometimes it does not before it shuts off. The LCD remains normal. (clock still working, timer still going if set). Its as if someone walked by and hit "cancel" on the keypad. I can fire it right back up and it will start heating again.....and typically will randomly shut off again within 5-10 mins. It will fire up again if I go and rest the temp set point as if I was just beginning to cook. What do I need?

Answer

Slyfox, There are a couple of possibilities and you will have to do some testing to be sure of the issue. You can test at the control for 120 vac from the connector P2 pin 3 and ST1 pin 3 after bake is pressed. If you lose voltage here during the bake cycle then the control is bad. WP8507P229-60. You can also test at the gas valve with an amp meter and you will be looking for 3.2 to 3.6 amps at the valve. If the igniter is good you will find that amp draw continuous and you will replace the gas valve. If the amp draw is not within range then the igniter would be replaced.
