The Control and Overlay Asm is an OEM part for GE range ovens. It houses the buttons, knobs and digital display required to operate the oven functions like temperature selection and timer.
Causes of a bad assembly can include failure of electronic components due to prolonged exposure to food splatters, moisture, and heat inside the oven cavity. The control panel can also become damaged from impact or rough handling over years of use.
Symptoms of a bad control include:
- Knobs or buttons sticking, not rotating or pressing smoothly
- Lights or displays flickering, dead pixels, or complete backlight failure
- Inaccurate or erratic temperature readings
- Inability to set or change cooking times and functions
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore ranges.
