Mike for Model Number GGE350LWS00

I have a double oven and both ovens the temperature seems to fluctuate. Could this be a control board issue? If so, do you stock this particular part? More information would be that when setting the temperature, say 350 it takes a long time to reach. Then it may hold for a short while then I can see that the heating element is staying on,and the temperature is rapidly rising. So, I'll reset the temperature to a lower setting so that the element will shut off. Thanks in advance for your help.

Mike, Thanks for the question!!! You can test the oven sensor at room temperature, it should measure around 1080 ohms. But let's talk about oven operation. An oven set to 350 achieves this as an average temperature. Meaning it heats up to 400 then shuts off cools down to 300 then turns back on. This allows the oven to maintain an average temperature of 350.

Rufffianfan, It would be recommended to test the oven sensor for a resistance of 1090 ohms at room temperature. If the resistance is good then this will be a control board issue.

Roy, It would be recommended to test the oven sensor for resistance of 1080 ohms at room temperature and 1654 at 350 degrees. If the sensor resistance is off then replace the sensor and if it is good then replace the control board.

Joe, Check to see if the cooling fan is running and if it is not then this will be the most likely cause for this issue.

Ben, the oven sensor W10833885 would need to be tested for resistance to identify if it is operating properly. It should measure about 1100 Ohms at room temperature and it should raise 2 Ohms for every 1°F warmer it gets when heated with a hairdryer. If it tests good, the likely cause of failure would be the control W11393093.

Vernon, Thanks for the question!!! I don't think any parts need to be replaced. The typical oven thermometer that is widely used, is a slow reacting gauge. That is why after time it gets to temp. Before you change anything find a fast-reacting thermometer. In the field, most technicians use a multimeter with a thermal probe. This allows for real-time temperature readings.
