Answer

Hello Barbra. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the lid switch WP8318084 may be the problem. Test the lid switch and see if it is working properly. If not, it can cause the problems your having. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
