Ken, At room temperature you should have a resistance reading of the oven sensor of 1090 ohms plus or minus 10 percent. The room temp would be at 77 degrees.

Hello Nelson, You will want to check the fan circuit on the control board for 120 vac. Check from CVB/fan to Neutral when unit is not operational. If there is no power then you would need to replace control board. If there is power then you would need to replace the fan.

Hello Glen, You will want to check your oven ignitor. Using amp meter you will put the amp clamp on the wire for the ignitor and turn oven on. You should be getting between 3.2 and 3.6 amps. If you are not getting this then you have a bad ignitor WP7432P136-60.

Jer for Model Number 9495XRB

I have a old wall oven microwave combo, The oven stopped heating up so we replaced the oven igniter ( your part), the oven did not get past 200 degrees, then we replaced the heat sensor, ( your part) and tried again but it won't get past 200 degrees. The tempature dial we set to 500 degrees and it will show it getting there in less then a minute. BUT the oven wont get past 500 degrees. Any ideas what could be the issue? aslo when trying to fix the buttons on the microwave, something shocked, but the oven was bad before this. ( i think we touch a item to metal). please help

Jer, You didn't have any error codes in the oven display ? You'll need to lower the control panel and check the resistance of the temp. sensor at the connection on the "T" clock for the 1050 to 100 ohms, also check each wire for a circuit to chassis ground. If all's OK then you'll need to replace the "T" clock [Y01210109] (which has been discontinued by the manufacturer).

Hello Rosa. First thing to check is a low voltage issue in the house wiring. If all is good, look for a weak igniter in the unit.
