Bill June 27, 2022 for Model Number RBS245PRB00 what would cause baking heating element to over heat?
1 Answer Bill, The elements are either on or they are off, and the temperature is controlled by the oven temperature sensor/probe and/or the oven electronic control. Check the sensor/probe for resistance (1080O @ 70° / 1654O @ 350°), If the element and the probe are good then the issue would be the control. Read More...
Tim January 13, 2022 for Model Number RBD307PVS00 Control panel is acting up. It will light up for a while, then when I start to cook something the panel will blank out and the oven will shut off. After several hours the panel will light up again. When the panel blanks out, all the buttons still beep but do nothing else. The one exception is the oven light which still comes on. Holding down the clock button for a few seconds yields one beep. Holding down most other buttons yields three beeps. Shutting off the power and back on again at the breaker changes nothing. How do I trouble shoot this? Thanks.
1 Answer Tim, It would be recommended to test the transformer for the control board to make sure that it is good by testing 120 Vac into the transformer and 24 Vac out of the transformer. If there is proper voltage then also check to make sure that when the oven is set that the cooling fan is coming on and if this is good then the issue will be a faulty control board. Read More...
Ernie September 05, 2019 for Model Number RBS275PDB14 Our oven was not producing heat. I troubleshot the issue with a digital multi meter to the Thermal Overload Fuse was open. I ordered the replacement part. After installing I turned on the breaker, and both the Broiler and and Bake elements turned on instantly. To measure continuity of the Overload Fuse in the forums I have read two (2) different opinions of Zero Ohms and between 1K and 1,1K. Which is it as I have a device that has 0 Ohms of continuity between the terminals. Is there a second issue with my oven that I have overlooked? Please help. Thank you.
1 Answer Ernie, The WP9759243 Thermal fuse is a switch(basically) and should be tested for continuity, not resistance. At room temperature/below the temp. rating on the thermostat there should be a "closed" circuit. If the thermal fuse hs failed it would have an "open" circuit at room temperature. Based on your information, once you verify the thermal fuse circuit, you will need to check or replace the EOC/Clock WP8302994. With power removed and the P1 connector removed from the EOC, Check for continuity from P1pin2 black to P1pin4 red then P1pin1orange to pin p1pin2 black, on the control board connector. Both checks should indicate an "open" circuit. If there is continuity on either check the relay on the control board is "stuck" and supplying constant power to the element(s) causing the oven to overheat and the thermal fuse to open. Read More...
Sam January 19, 2018 I have a Whirlpool double wall oven and there are no lights. I had an ekectrician troubleshoot the problem and he mentioned a part that look like a fuse. He worked with it and the oven came on. Do you have any idea what this part may look like? It's model#RBD245PDB14 and serial#XR3105816. Thanks
Ron March 19, 2017 for Model Number GSC308PJT1 ??? I have a built in Electric Convection oven Microwave combination. It is about 12 years old. Why does it not want come up to temp set on the display?. I've used several conventional oven thermometers as a base for looking at the temp. I thought it might be the baking element failing and I thought about buying a new element.
1 Answer Ron, You will want to pull the oven sensor and test the sensor for 1090 ohms of resistance. If the resistance checks ok then it would be likely that the element could be the issue. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Wade. Based on the information you provided you will want to make sure the touch pad is good. If so, you will need to order and replace the main control board for the unit. Read More...
Rodb October 05, 2016 for Model Number RBS305PDQ8 I am about to replace my 5th thermal overload fuse. Any chance they now work? Can I hard wire around the fuse? I replaced the sensor two years ago (the last time I cleaned until last week.)
1 Answer Rod, They have substituted the thermal overload to another part number but we do not know what design change that was made. You would not want to hard wire past the fuse due to it being a safety device. The part number for the thermal overload is WP9759243. Read More...
Bill L. April 11, 2016 for Model Number GBS277PRB01 Can you please tell me the temperature range of the oven shutdown thermal fuse? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Bill, I'm sorry but the manufacturer has not provided this information on this part. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Tim March 20, 2016 I changed thermal shut shut off and still wont heat over 350. Any other ideas and can I get refund.
1 Answer Tim, You will want to check the oven sensor for resistance. The resistance should be 1090 ohms at room temp and you can test it as the temperature rises you would add 2 ohms for every 1 degrees of temperature difference.

Tim March 13, 2016 for Model Number RBS245PDQ6 Cleaned the oven on self clean and now it wont heat up over 350...what part do I need to change?
1 Answer Tim, You want to start at the oven temp. sensor WP4451665. Occasionally, the high heat, extended time, and burnt residue from the self clean cycle will cause the sensor to "loose" it's calibration, and the oven will not operate properly at the higher temperatures. Read More...
