Normr for Model Number GBD277PDB7 I have a built-in Whirlpool double accubake electric oven that is malfunctioning. Mdl# GBD277PDB7, Serial# XM0603287. It was installed in 2002. It had a self-cleaning incident a few years later, but it was fixed by an authorized repairman. We never utilized the self-clean feature from that point on. Some time later though the control display would begin intermittently going blank for a few days, then come back on. However, for the last few years, it functioned with no trouble. This past season after my wife finished an extensive array of Xmas cookies, the display panel became totally blank. The control board thermal fuse had gone bad—no continuity—, I personally replaced it and hoped it would function correctly. Although the control readouts now seemingly display correctly, the clock works fine, and the top oven turns on with all the readouts visible and the temperature can be adjusted, it will not turn off except by tripping the circuit breaker. Plus the lower oven will not turn on at all. When pressing the lower oven keypad, the upper oven turns on instead. I understand that the control board is no longer available, so I will be sending it out to be repaired, but I’m now concerned because the last time the oven was on, there was moisture developing on the keypad face above the upper oven vent. Could that have caused the control panel malfunction and its thermal fuse to break, or is a control board malfunction that affected the cooling fan?
Answer Hello Normr. Make sure the cooling fan is working when you get the board repaired. Also, if the button issue continues, you will need to replace the control panel on the unit. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, February 18, 2014
