Oven died after self clean

Just buy a new one baw

Well you have it out of the wall, and that’s the hard part. Replace them and see. I had an element go bad on me a few months back. Tried to replace it and lost the wires. Had to take it out of the wall and it was a piece of cake after that. My element wasn’t OEM but said compatible with GE and a few others. Works great.

Germans



























What I mean is that the Germans have quite a history with Ovens.

If you have a German friend, ask him/her to help you.

my kitchen aid wall oven did that. Repair guy told me that if they dont have proper ventilation that this will happen every time you self clean

I did not see that question coming.

I must admit that I do not have a final solution for it.

Call the manufacturer/company and talk to them

Damn

Kitchenaid

both are bad but most likely it was caused by a shorted out heating element that cracked in the self clean mode (essentially a full unregulated always on heating element condition).

test the heating elements on 10k ohm setting and you should see some resistance. if you find resistance below the 10k ohm setting then its bad

changing all 3 of these parts will be around $20 each for the fuse and limit switch, the heating element can be $50-$100 but its much better then spending $1k on a new oven

google the brand and model number and get the part numbers and then look them up on ebay, its not hard to repair this stuff and if you went this far then it sounds like you can handle it.

with all that said, the control board should still be lighting up so i think you have even more going on with it. if its the control board, they can be expensive, so before buying any parts, you need to get the control board working or find out why it isnt getting power to it

It wasn't easy, but to me the hard part is figuring out the model number of the oven itself.

the model/serial number plate is found behind the doors on the front. its riveted facing forward but they put them in different spots sometimes but its always there if you look around for it

I thought so too, but I did read and watch a YouTube video that said sometimes the panel doesn't work.

Thanks, I'll look a little harder.
