Paul June 26, 2014 for Model Number cRBD305PDS15 I have whirlpool accubake double oven and panel reads code F5 only. All the buttons on Panel are dead except one lower oven button and when pressed, beeps and shows time and after a few minutes shows F5 code only. I check continuity to latch switch and works fine. When powered ON the motor runs for 20 to 30 seconds and F5 code shows. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thank you.
1 Answer Paul, Based on the information that was provided, the F5 error as to do with the latch assembly. You checked the latch which checked good. The most likely caused would be that the control board has a fault in it and would need to be replaced. Read More...
Ann R. June 19, 2014 for Model Number GW395LEPB00 How do I unlock the oven door after the control board burned out half way through cleaning. Door is still locked preventing me from getting to the screws to replace the control board which I've purchased. Called Whirlpool and they told me they don't have any secondary way to open the door. That seems pretty foolish, that the engineers didn't plan a way to unlock the door manually. Please tell me they're wrong and there is a way to do this. I shouldn't have to pay to have a serviceman come out when I have the parts and know how to install them (done it before). Thanks
1 Answer Hello Josh, This dishwasher is programmed with a service mode to aid the technician in troubleshooting the dishwasher. Each component may be cycled to detect if it is functioning correctly. Components are cycled by pressing keypads to the right or left of the start/reset keypad. If you pull the tech sheet from behind the kick panel, it will explain how to use this method to troubleshoot the unit. Read More...
James June 04, 2014 for Model Number RBD306PD Control panel went blank during cleaning. Unable to unlock door. Cannot move latch manually. How do I gain access?
1 Answer Hello James. You will need to use an ice pick to manually unlock the door. It sounds like the thermal fuse WP4451042 will need to be replaced. Read More...
David January 18, 2014 for Model Number GMC305PRS01 Hi - need to order a latch assembly for my whirlpool oven which is a microwave/oven combo. Do your parts come with instructions on how to replace? Do you have a video available on how to replace? How difficult would you say it is to replace? Part Number: AP4429328 Made by: Whirlpool Thanks!
1 Answer Hello David. CAUTION: When you work on the double oven, be careful when handling the sheet metal parts. Sharp edges may be present, and you can cut yourself if you are not careful. 1. Disconnect the electrical power to the double oven. To remove the lower oven door latch assembly: a) Open the lower oven door b) Remove the two screws from the lower air vent and remove the vent. c) Remove the 3 lower air duct cover screws. d) Raise the lower air duct cover and remove the two screws from the lower oven door latch assembly. e) Remove the lower oven door latch assembly and disconnect the wires from the two switches and the solenoid terminals."

Tom November 06, 2013 for Model Number Whirlpool Double Oven RBD306PDB14 I have Whirlpool Double Oven RBD306PDB14. I had a problem with the display (blank), after replacing the control board I was able to set and see the time but after about 30 seconds I see the codes F5 E1 on the display. I am told that it is a latch problem. What part(s) do I need to fix the problem? Anything I can check before I order the part? Also, it is a double oven, how do I know if it is the Upper or Lower oven? Thanks for your help.
1 Answer Hello Tom. 1. Check the latch assembly: latch arm pivot joint, arm/motor connection, plunger and hook springs. 2. Check the Latch Motor: - Check for firm electrical connections. - Disconnect the two wires from the motor and measure the resistance of the motor. The resistance should be approx. 2450O. If the motor is open (8O) or shorted (0O), it should be replaced. 3. Check the Latch Switch. Disconnect it and use a continuity tester: - Door latched = switch closed, continuity should read 0O. - Door unlatched = switch open, continuity should read 8O. 4. Check Door Open/Closed Switch. Disconnect it and use a continuity tester: - Door open = switch open, continuity should read 8O. - Door closed = switch closed, continuity should read 0O. 5. Check Sister Board. - Check connections, latch motor – sister board. - Replace sister board. 6. Check power and element connections. 7. Replace control. Read More...
Troy C August 19, 2013 for Model Number RBD305PDS15 SERIAL # XS4500739 Hi, I have recently replaced the main control board, and the front control panel following the error codes in the manufacturers service manual for this Whirlpool double oven. The ribbon cable would not seat so this is why I replaced the control panel. After installing these I got the error "door" and the oven will not heat up. I then bought a new door switch P/N - W10195934 and installed it. I am still getting "door" error on the panel and no other error codes. The only other indication something is wrong is both lights are on and cannot be turned off by control panel. The service manual shows the lights run through the sister board but I am at a loss after replacing every other part and need some experienced help please. Please let me know what to do now. Thank you, Troy
1 Answer Hello Troy. Go back and check all connections on the board and make sure they are good and nothing is loose. It sounds like a wiring issue. Read More...
Lorraine May 16, 2013 for Model Number KERA807PSS01 I replaced the membrane switch but the light stayed on and now the oven doesnt get hot. Could it be the latch? It also wont self clean, says the door is open. please help
1 Answer Lorraine, You will want to make sure that the door is closing all the way. Check to make sure that the connection for the membrane switch is a firm connection. You will also want to check when you put the unit into bake or broil that you are getting 240 vac across the L1 to Bake or L1 to broil when in broil. If you are then your control board would be the issue and need to be replaced. Read More...
Caryn March 21, 2013 for Model Number Kitchen aid KGRA806Pss02 Hey, I put my oven on self clean mode and noticed a rack I went to open the door and I was able to open my oven door. Now the latch is engaged and the door wont completely close. I tried to reset the self clean but it tells me to close the door. What can I do?
1 Answer Caryn, You may want to try to push in on the door light switch and see if you can get the door latch to open. If not then you will want to have someone help you by holding the door switch and pulling out a little on the latch and try to reset. If this does not work then you may need a new motor latch motor.
