Robin H Jamaica Beach , TX January 08, 2017 Appliance: Whirlpool 30" Gas Slide-In Range GW397LXUS06 Several of the keypad buttons stopped working Called an appliance guy, who said the control panel needed to be changed and quoted me $600. Luckily I Googled the model number and found this website. After seeing that several other people had had the same problem and that the membrane was recommended (not the control panel), I took a chance and ordered the part. One of the other posters recommended a Japanese YouTube video which I easily found and watched first. I highly recommend watching the video first. It's not a hard repair but he gives a few little tips that are worth knowing in advance. Replacement took about 45 minutes and fixed the problem. $112 vs $600 quoted by the appliance guy... needless to say, I'm an Appliance Parts Pros convert!

William L Greensboro , NC February 09, 2018 Appliance: Model GW397LXUS3 Whirlpool gas range keypad not working Called an appliance repair company to make the repairs. They replaced the keypad twice and that did not fix the problem. They recommended us to buy a new range, as it would be cheaper than replacing the controller. I let that sink in and shopped for a new range. Found AppliancePartsPros while the installers turned the install into a science project. Ordered the controller and keypad, installed the parts and had cornbread for supper. Saved about $600 by taking the task on. The difficulty level indicator on the parts page was a great help, with my confidence. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
