John March 01, 2015 for Model Number RBS275PDQ12 The front control panel on the oven seems to be working correctly. The oven elements do not heat. Bake, broil, or even in cleaning mode. Are there any other options besides the control microcomputer. I have researched this and cannot find one that looks like the one in this oven. SERIAL # XL 2706092
1 Answer John, On the back of the range there is a thermal cutoff WP9759243 which you will want to check to see if there is continuity to it. If no continuity then the thermal is faulty and would need to be replaced. If the thermal checks ok then the control board would be the issue. The part number for the control board is 8186024 but unfortunately has been discontinued by the manufacturer with no suitable replacement. Read More...
Anthony February 20, 2015 for Model Number rbs245pdq11 No display, no time showing, Can't turn on, But when I press in the area of the digital clock it comes on able to heat oven then works for 10 min then shuts down. To start again I must tap on the front were the control panel is. I checked all connections and they are fine. Do you think I have to replace the control board Item # 4452892 Thank you for your assistance
1 Answer Anthony, Yes, based on the issue, this would most likely be caused by a faulty control board which will need to be replaced. Read More...
Barbara K February 03, 2015 for Model Number RS696PXGQ8 My oven has been on the blink for a while. I was sure it was just the lower element that had shorted out, so I replaced it. Tried to pre heat, and it stopped heating and nothing. So I was told it was the sensor, so I replaced it, and had the same problem. It starts to heat, and about a min into heating up, the heat light goes out and the oven cools down. What am I missing here?
1 Answer Hello Barbara. Make sure the thermal overload WP9759243 is good. If so, then the micro-computer 8186024 is bad. The Micro-computer has been permanently discontinued by the manufacturer and we don't know of any source or replacement for the part. Read More...
Ja July 31, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool oven MODEL-RBS275PDB10 I have Whirlpool built-in oven mod rbs275pdb10. I turned the oven to bake @ 350 degrees. When I returned to the oven, it had switched to CLEAN mode. I hit cancel and after a while the oven door would open. Next time it tried to used the oven, there was no heat in the oven (neither bake or broil). I feel sure the thermal overload safety is blown, but am concerned about the unauthorized switch from bake to clean. Do I need a new electronic (microcomputer) component? You show that this part is no longer available. What options do I have?
1 Answer Hello Ja. It is very possible the board could be bad. However, if there is power from the board, but the thermal is open, then the board should be ok if it is sending power. Also, test the temp probe in the unit as well. 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...
Coopecd February 20, 2014 for Model Number RBS245PDQ12 I came home yesterday and my Whirlpool Oven Model# RBS245PDQ12 did not seem to have power and there was an burnt electrical smell. I removed the control panel and can seem two burn spots under two transitors on the Mirocomputer. The oven had not been in use and I don't believe there was a power outage. Should I; A: Replace the microcomputer. B: Replace the entire control panel. C: Look for other issues and do either A or B D: Replace the transitors?
Bob October 18, 2013 for Model Number rbs245pds12 Like most questions I've read, the trouble is heating. All displays are functioning and no error codes show. Replaced the heat sensor. Don't know why as there's no heat? Anyway, system is showing Fahrenheit and the board appears to show no breaks. What say you?
1 Answer Hello Bob. If the unit is not heating, you will test for power to the element during bake. If 240 is not there, and there is 240 to the oven, replace the board. If there is 240 volts at the element, and no heat, replace the element. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Michael D September 23, 2013 for Model Number RBS305PDQ12 The oven will come on as soon as I hit the breaker and cannot shut it off. Only way to turn it off is to hit the breaker. Removed the 8186024 circuit board. I would like to know which relay has failed in the closed position ( or controls elements on and off) so I can change it. I have experience in soldering circuit boards and have the equipment to do it. There are 3 Porter Brumfield T77V1D3-24 relays to the left of the transformer and 2 RT334024F relays just above the transformer on the board. I have had multiple appliance breakdowns in a row and really need to fix this one as least costly as possible. THX Mike
1 Answer Michael, Unfortunately we do not have access to the electronic control breakdown. The manufacturer does not make this information available. The only thing that we have access to is the tech sheet which would be in your unit. Read More...
Todd June 01, 2013 for Model Number RS696PXGQ4 The oven control board temp won't go above 250 deg and defaults to 175 deg to preheat when the bake button is pushed after a power failure. How do I test the control board (4453193) with a multi meter? Want to make sure that's the problem before I order a new control board. thanks, Todd
1 Answer Todd, Sounds like the control board has reset to the "Celsius" temperature mode, after the power failure : The default is Fahrenheit (° F). 1. Press the BROIL pad for 5 seconds. The temperature will be displayed in degrees Celsius indicated by the "C"” in the temperature display. 2. To return the display to degrees Fahrenheit press the BROIL pad again for 5 seconds. “F” will show in the temperature display. Read More...
Brian April 01, 2013 for Model Number Whirlpool RS696PXGQ8 I've been advised that my electronic control board needs to be replaced. How do I access the board?
1 Answer Brian, To replace the control board you would pull the unit out and disconnect the power to the unit. Remove the rear cover of the control panel and take the screws holding the control board on out. Install new board and reassemble. Read More...
Carolyn Ross July 20, 2012 for Model Number rs696pxgq6 I have replaced the microcomputer,(ap3177932). and the control panel,(ap3176848). Both are brand new, but I'm still getting the e1 f2 fault code. It will come up and every button works. The oven will kick on and count down the time to preheat. (along with the fan.) Then it will shut off and display the e1 f2 fault again. I tried the old computer and it did not show the fault codes. But the fan immediately kicked on and the oven wont countdown the preheat. Please help me figure out what is going on with my oven. Thank you. Carolyn
1 Answer Carolyn, You will need to check the insertion end of the keypad ribbon and make sure the end was not accidentally coverred with lubricant or plastic material on the production line. Check and make sure the ribbon is not creased or torn anywhere. Make sure the end of the ribbon is inserted into the microcomputer connector properly and tightly. " F2 E1 Keypad keytail not connected 1. Check keypad connector for firm connection.2. Press CANCEL. If error code returns after 60 sec., replace keypad.3. Replace control." After these checks, if the problem persists, re order a new control panel/keypad assembly. Thanks Read More...
