Stacey S Des Moines , IA April 17, 2016 Appliance: Model 790.94459700 Oven would not get up to temp barely felt warm after 30 min stove worked good Found online how to test for issue removed upper back panel with nut driver tested heating elements, temp sensor and controller came down to controller for oven, ordered part standard delivery was at my home in a day and a half WOW, unplugged from wall removed all electrical connectors to controller 4 screws then removed the touch pad from the old controller reinstalled pad on new controller then reinstalled controller and back panel plugged back in to wall. HERE IS THE KICKER IT WORKS BETTER AND HEATS UP FASTER EVEN WHEN IT WAS NEW. It must have had an issue from the factory but took eight years for the board to die. Old part also did not display temp while heating up new one does. With testing and install it took 45 min to an hour. heats up in 10 min in past 20-25 Read More... 3 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Nut Drivers, Screwdrivers

Robert W Orleans , MA March 27, 2016 Appliance: Model 790.94452701 My oven was erratic while heating and finally went off the rails to a high temperature i needed to go to basement and shutoff the breaker to shut down the unit Tried using a new temperature sensor, but that wasn't the problem, the oven went to an extremely high temperature again with basement breaker shutdown. I ordered a new EOC. The $200 part came the next day and installed in one hour. Oven then ran spot on to temperature and I could not be more pleased and relieved. Electronic oven control unit part was the problem. Replace this and swallow the cost,because it worked for me. Read More...

Kevin H Seaford , DE April 07, 2017 Appliance: Model 790.94469702 Oven not reaching operating temp Checked various modes of oven operation to rule out any specific fault. All modes would not heat up the oven. Research led me to believe the control board was the likely culprit. Pulled oven, remove a couple screws to the back panel, remove control panel, swap connectors over to new board, re-install, test oven, checks good, push oven back in. Overall time to complete: Less than an hour. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
