Doug K November 12, 2016 for Model Number PLES389ECC the right rear element switch will not turn on and feels like the switch is broken. When trying to get it to turn on, the electronic oven control board went blank and now none of the functions work on the board. I turned the breaker switch off and on and it still will not turn on. How do i get it to turn back on, or does the control board now need replaced along with the element switch?
1 Answer Doug, It sounds like the control board is also going to need to be replaced along with the element switch that is damaged. Read More...
Donna January 06, 2016 for Model Number PLES389CCB We keep getting a F3 error code so we replaced the temp probe again but it work for a couple of times and now it is giving us the F3 code again. We have no clue what the problem could be because sometimes it works and sometimes it does not, Any ideas??
1 Answer Hello Donna. Check the wiring harness. If it is good, you will need to order and replace the control board on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Richard December 26, 2014 for Model Number PLES389ACB Originally I was getting an f3 code I replaced the oven temp probe which was good anyway now I am getting an f1 code which tells me its the oven control board what do you think.
1 Answer Richard, The F1 error code is most likely a bad control board in which you will want to replace part number 318183620. Read More...
1 Answer Jessica, Without a model number, that's a bit difficult. In general: Remove power from the unit and remove the control panel. The clock or control is held in position by two brackets. Be sure not to remove any wires from same until transferring them one at a time to the new part. Remove the two screws holding the brackets to the control mounting panel. Remove one wire and transfer it to the new part being sure to connect it to the connection point labeled the same way as the one it was removed from. Remove the next and connect it to the new part. Continue in this fashion until all wires have been transferred to the new assembly. Reassembly in the reverse order. If you can supply a model number, we may be able to supply you with a more detailed procedure. Read More...
Malia W. October 29, 2013 for Model Number PLES389ACB My oven is getting F3 error. I am thinking this is the problem. What are the steps on removing and replacing this part on my model?
1 Answer Hello Malia, The F3 fault code indicates an open temperature probe 316217002 or the circuit to it is open. You should test it from the control first. This tests the harness also. You should read about 1100 ohms at about 70°F. If not, test it again from the terminals in the back of the unit. If it reads right now, the problem is in the harness. If not, replace the probe.
