How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP6017099 / WPW10207935 Range Membrane Switch Touch Pad

The control panel is just a thin film which is pasted in place. I can be pulp rather easily, but you have to remove the entire panel to get to the connectors. This is not difficult. Just pull the stove out about 3-4 inches to access two screws, on either side of the panel, (philips). Then open the oven door to access 4 additional screws under the panel. Remove those screws and you will now be able to pull the panel away from the stove and access the connectors. DONE! make sure when ordering to order the right color, (back or white) for your stove. (note: You need another person to hold the panel once the screws are out) 

I was fortunate to find AppliancePros on the web. They identified the part in seconds, quoted me a price and a delivery date, and led me to a video of how to open up the range and remove the connections. Until manufacturers return to building stuff that lasts, you gotta know AppliancePros I paid them and it was delivered exactly as promised. A friend and I pulled the control panel off, pulled the failed part and clicked in the connectors. The we stripped off the protective film, and attached the switchpad to the glass mounting ares 20 minutes start to finish
