Dacor Range RSD30S oven door hinge issue

The oven door is not aligned correctly and it appears one of the hinges is bent. I purchased the hinges and am now trying to change them. The issue is that I cannot remove the door. The hinge release lever is suppose to move upright over part of the hinge but it is also damaged, plus one of the hinges is bent in a way that it would not fit over the release lever. Is there any way I can release the hinge from the oven in order to remove the door? Thanks!

Oven/Broiler clicks but won't ignite

Long time user, first time poster here!

Our KitchenAid Oven has been unusable for some time now. The stove burners all ignite as normal, but the oven/broiler don't seem to spark. I can always smell gas when it's trying to light. We have intermittently gotten the lower (oven?) burner to ignite, but now it does not. Also note that the broiler electrical element does heat properly.

My first inclination was to replace the broiler igniter, as it was the most accessible. I replaced this part directly but have not seen any changes in behavior. I am not entirely sure how to access any of the control boards so I can begin testing components (wires, etc.)

Any direction or consulting is GREATLY appreciated.

How to check continuity on an oven selector switch

Attached is the schematic of a GE WB22x27 oven selector switch. I'd like to know which contacts are made when the switch is set to Bake. Is it A to L1, B to N, and C to L2? And for Broil would it be B to L1, and C to L2, A no contact? And Time Bake (TB) A to T1, B to N, and C to L2? Also Is T1 the same as a neutral (N) connector?

GE Oven issues

I have a GE Built in electric oven, model JKP45 that has an upper and lower unit. I am having multiple issues with it. Here is a list of my problems:

When I select the broil feature on either unit, the display says HI and when I hit start it just sits there and nothing happens. When I select the bake feature on the lower unit it displays 100 degrees and when I set it for 400 and hit start I hear a click but it never heats up. When I select bake on the upper unit it heats up to 400 and then powers completely off. The clock display goes off and there is no evidence of power to the unit. After a while the power comes back and the clock starts flashing. Is there a part in there that controls all of these features. I am assuming there is a control board that may be defective but I wanted to get some feedback before I pull the unit away from the wall.

Gaffers and Sattler Older gas wall oven comes on by itself

I have an older moble home with a gaffer and sattler gas wall oven that started coming on by itself . I was advised to replace the control unit as it was seeping . I found one online and installed it but when I turned the main gas back on it came on full , no control at all and will not turn off unless I shut the main line off . Is there a way to check or adjust /reset the control unit ? I can't afford to replace the oven . Thank you .

Replacement radiant surface element not working

Both front radiant surface elements burned out within one month of each other. I ordered replacement elements, and installed them. The right front element works with no problem. The left front element will not work. I have tested the infinity switch by swapping it out with the exact same switch on the right front circuit, and it works. I also swapped out the identical radiant surface elements, same result. I can get the right circuit to operate correctly, using either switch or either element, but I could not get the left circuit to operate, with either switch or element.

I then tested the continuity through the wiring from the left switch to the left element. The wires all seem to have the correct continuity, but I still get no heat on the element. The "On Indicator" Light comes on when I move the left switch to any "on" position, but there seems to be no current flow from the switch to the element.

Any suggestions for my next troubleshooting step?:wall:

Viking VGSC48 - Oven burner won't stay lite

Hello,

I am having trouble with a viking range I recently bought and converted to propane. Surface burners and griddle work fine.

30" Oven burner lights immediately, the igniter keeps firing (it's a spark igniter), and then the gas valve closes after about 10 seconds shutting down the burn. Re-tries ignition after about 30 seconds, same thing.

Same thing happens with the broiler burner.

18" Oven does not work at all. (if I can get the 30" working, I can worry about this later)

Checked resistance on all the gas valves, all were <3ohms.

Swapped ignitors between the 2 ovens, no change.

Any thoughts on what's going on?

There was a previous thread here where it was thought to be a spark module, but I can't seem to find the part for my model.

Ge oven not heating

Ge...ge...ge...I am becoming quite the repairman with all of my ge profile appliances... I have an oven that I believe needs a heating element...Again..... I turn it on to preheat and it doesn't get past 100 degrees....and that's just what the digital display reads. It doesn't preheat or for that matter heat.(it is gas). Can you tell me the part number and confirm diagnosis? Thank you in advance!

Service Manual for Bosch Slide-in Induction Range HIIP054U

Some dirt has found its way in between the front door glass panels, and I'd like to disassemble, clean, and reassemble.
I've not been able to find a service manual online, and know that it would be better if I had the official instructions rather than figure it out myself.
Can anyone post a link or send a pdf?

Thanks!

Oven Knob Not "Zeroed"

If you turn the oven knob, it turns the D-shaped stem properly, but to turn the oven off, we have to apply pressure and turn the knob counter-clockwise past the actual 0 degree mark a ways, until it looks like it's 300 or 400, or whatever, to be sure we've turned the oven off. Then we have to check it twenty minutes later to be sure it actually turned off, and that we don't have to turn it a little farther. Every time we shut it off, we guess about how far we have to force it to get it to actually shut off, and turning it on, we guess what number to turn it to to give us our actual temperature.

It's been like this a long time and I've scoured the Internet unable to find a fix. So I hope someone here knows how to fix this stem issue. Like I said, the knob turns with the stem, the stem just doesn't properly indicate "Off" anymore.

P.S. I'm not sure what my model is, I can't find writing anywhere. But I can pull it away from the wall if I need to and look.
