This was the best video to show all the ways to check that your oven isn't heating up.. We have determined it's the sensor and is most likely the cheapest fix of all.. I want to thank you so very much for taking the time to make this video! You were very thorough and your video was very clear in the pictures and what you were doing.. Thank you thank you

OMG I have to share an oven mishap that happened in my family last night. My mom's flattop Whirlpool range from the late (maybe even mid) 90's finally gave up the ghost (well, the oven control board did). She called me in a panic. She said she heard two pops, smoke coming from the control panel, the display was all wonky, no buttons responded, both the bake and broil elements were on, and the door was locked!! I told her to turn off any "double" breaker, which of course stopped the madness. Resetting the breaker the electronics that ran the oven were dead. In the meantime it's holding an unbaked cake hostage LOL. I'll be helping her shop for ranges this weekend.

Sadly, there aren't as many good factories churning out reliable parts like they used to. Frigidaire has to buy from the same garbage parts manufacturers others do. Some parts are really, really reliable still. But there are others like the control boards that really stink, because the assemblers just aren't offering good components, from what I see.

Thank you so much for the video! It was perfect for me, who likes to fix before replacing. Issue ended up being the main board. Frigidaire oven is back in business! I didn't think it would be the board since the stove is only 7 years old. Indeed, it was. Disappointing because i got rid of an old Kenmore stove that worked fine, but my husband wanted new appliances. Kind of wish i had held on to the Kenmore a bit longer. Thanks again!!

If you've had the experience of having an element explode, it's a real show. We had our oven element (Magic Chef) explode and arc. Impressive. My sister in law had a stove top coil explode and blow hot bits around the kitchen.

Great video, very concise explanation, easy to follow. We have a Frigidaire model GLEB30M9FSC wall oven, the oven temperature is low, at 350 degrees the temperature is 25 low, at 450 it’s about 30 degrees low. Replaced the lower element about 6 months ago, element wasn’t heating, fell apart when removing. Went through the calibration procedure, problem persisted after calibration. Any suggestions on how to proceed? If it’s the control board what’s a good source? We are in a very rural area, service people are hard to find.

Excellent Video! I am having trouble with my Frigidaire FFEF3018LBG electric oven. Sometimes the bake element wont come on at all. I replaced the element and the temperature sensor, but it is still erratic. When it does heat up it could take several hours to cook anything. The broiler and the stove top work fine. I am also not getting any error codes. The panel display I am using looks exactly like the one in this video. I am going to order the controller and the overlay as soon as possible, but I wanted to see if you had any other advice. ☺

We moved into my Grandparent's house that has a Magic Chef 30-inch gas stove, electronic ignition, manual on / off knobs, no electronic digital control panels. The four burners work, the oven does not. The appliance tech worked on the oven for over an hour. Replaced the broiler igniter, it did not light up. The oven igniter did light up but no gas flowing to it. Still the oven and broiler doesn't flame up. Tech said the gas valve is bad. He could not find a replacement gas valve for it. How can the gas valve be bad when the gas gets to the burners? Where can we find a replacement gas valve for the oven? I can take a photo of the appliance spec label if you can use it. Appreciate any feedback.
@bensappliancesandjunk6 ай бұрын
He needs to do an amperage test on the ignitor with electricity going to the unit, but not gas. Often times, the amperage on the ignitor isn't high enough to actually turn the gas valve on. It can glow cherry red, but if it doesn't hit >2.8a, it won't open up. This is a safety feature because it takes a certain level of heat (produced by the electrical current) to allow the gas valve to open up. I do have videos on this for Frigidaires and GEs on my channel. We've been bitten even by new ignitors being faulty out of the box, only pushing say 2.6a which wouldn't trigger the valve. A new ignitor should be in the 3.0 - 3.3a range which is well above the threshold needed.
