Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Oven Control Board And Clock (Part Number: OEM18032049)

Mike for Model Number MEW6627BAB

Our Maytag oven MEW6627BAB when last used made a crackling/sizzling sound was heard from the control panel followed by smoke. Power was disconnected. I took apart the control panel and did not notice anything until I removed the front clock/control board. The back of the circuit board showed evidence of some charring and possible solder melting on the back side bottom corner of the board. When powered back up the clock works but none of the oven functions work when selected (no elements heat up, convection fan does not activate, only the cooling fan for the control panel turns on when broil is selected - this is all true for both upper and lower oven). I assume that I am correct in that I need a new oven control board. However, should I be concerned that something else failed/faulted causing the control board to short? Any way to test for this?

Hello Mike. Just make sure the wiring harness is good on the unit. If so, then you should just need to replace the control board.

Hello Marva. The F2 error code on this model of range indicates that the electronic oven control board detected an over temperature condition in the oven. If the oven actually overheated, then you could have a welded contact on the electronic oven control board. If the oven did not overheat, then you could have a bad oven temp probe or a wiring issue. 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

Hello Michael, The only way you will get this by itself is from a used unit. The only other way to get it is with the control board WPW10438751.
