It worked for me! The ovens and clock still worked after the power outage, but none of the burners would even make a peep! Flipped the breaker off, waited a couple of minutes and VIOLA!!! I once again have a working range! THANKS!!!

Second time I've watched a video to try and fix one of my appliances. You people are awesome!

De Dietrich oven, we have to press the timer select button 4times to bring on the oven. Its like as if the oven is set on zero. Another point to note is if your oven/ grill doesn't come on after a pyroclean, slide out oven, take photos of oven covers. Remove covers and find the overheating trip button on top of oven under covers. Press button to reset.
Return to cooking without service callout!

Thanks for this quick but impt video. Our Frigidaire stove just suddenly died. I checked the breaker but it wasnt tripped. I will follow your steps. I hope its just a blown fuse. Wish me luck!

What would cause a Kenmore glass top range to spark by the back control board when the oven door slams shut? Also is it easy to repair?

[kaishajones]

I have a Frigidaire electric self cleaning stove. Only way it will show clock display is if I turn one of the knobs as if heating the quick boil but it won’t heat up and if I turn the knob to off the whole stove cuts off. What is going on?

if the oven heating element burns out/arcs, what is the most likely reason the oven will not come on after the oven heating element has been replaced?

[healthyamerican]

my burners on my smooth top stove are working randomly. one side wont work, then the other side wont, then all of a sudden both sides will work...any idea what it could be? ty

[carlmay]

I have a Frigidaire self cleaning unit. For whatever reason both the oven and stove top burners decided to stop working. However the clock is still right and when you turn on the burners and/or oven, the lights come on as if it is heating up. But nothing. Turned off the breakers and turned back on with same result. Any clues?

[chancyrilcts]

Greetings and great post. What does it mean if my oven wont turn on and certain eyes wont cut off. What to do???

[cyprianyarde]

Replaced control pannel only 4 months ago now the control panel will not turn on at the flick of the electric supply switch. What might be the problem since Ihave made a visual inspection of the components and can't detect a lack of continuity?

[sandywhat]
