Whirlpool WP8507P232-60 Electronic Control Board (Oven) OEM Part

My 15 year old son and I examined the new parts and made a plan for how we were going to take the front off of the oven. Turns out it was fairly simple. We removed the knobs, the knob shrouds, two philip screws on the side of the head and about 6, 6mm hex sheet screws. Voila! It came apart. We carefully looked at how the old parts were assembled and simply reversed the assembly with the new parts. Since one of our parts was the entire front head, it went together quickly and it was a perfect fit. We plugged it in after assembly and all functions are restored! We saved Thanksgiving!

The burners and temp probe all looked and ohm'd out okay so I knew the passive parts of the heating system were in working order. Time to replace the electric control. AppliancepartsPro.com website made it easy to locate the parts on line. That you can stop and verify that your selections are in fact the right part numbers is a confidence booster. Trouble shooting and repair videos a plus also. Much better than spending your Saturday running around town looking for parts. Decided to change the temp probe while I was at it.

Replaced oven control panel. Most difficult part was removing some stripped screws under burner control knobs. Fault also permanently tripped panel breaker, replaced that 50 amp breaker as well. Repair company wanted $700 to fix, not including breaker. Oven control panel cost ~$300, breaker was $18
