Wolf Dual Fuel DF48 Oven Temperature stops at 350

Wolf Dual Fuel oven temp while in Bake mode set to 350, will rise to 350 and all the while the display switches back and forth from the set temperature (350) to the actual temp as it heats. Once it reaches set temp red light goes out (no longer calling for heating element) and signal sounds to alert that temp was reached. But at that point raising the set temp to a higher temp, let's say 375, the red light goes on but the actual temp as measured by several oven thermometers, does not change...

Induction Ranges Reliability

Hi,

What is the reliability as of lately with respect to induction ranges? Are the electric ranges more reliable?
Just want to know that I can be comfortable buying an induction range. Worried about the induction control module failing.
Do induction ranges from GE and Kitchen-Aid have a fuse to protect the electronics in case of a power surge in the area.

Regards,
Gus

GE 30" Coil Cooktop Suddenly Died - HELP!

My GE® 30" BUILT-IN ELECTRIC COOKTOP, MODEL JP328WFWW, suddenly stopped working (went to cook breakfast) and none of the burners worked, nor did the "burner on/hot surface/indicator light". I cooked on it one night and the next morning - nothing! These are the steps I took to troubleshoot:

1) Yes, I did go and check the breaker - it had not tripped.

2) It's hard-wired, so I got out my no-contact tester to check for power in the junction box in the cabinet under the cooktop...

SOPS76 Porter & Charles Wall Oven- Sudden electrical odour

10 year old Porter & Charles wall oven has suddenly developed an electrical odour as soon as heat is turned on, has been doing this for about a month and not improving.

Any suggestions on what this could be?

Thank you,

Gas cooktop YELLOW TIPPING

Another challenge for me, I have a Kitchenaid drop in 5 burner cooktop about 5 yrs old, and clean. All of the burners burn yellow and orange. Pulled the top, looking for air shutters, none found? Checked burner bonnets, all clean. Checked gas pressure at 6.8"/WC. There is a small hole in valve shaft to adjust pressure. I don't have that ultra skinny screwdriver. Customer states this all just napped and had been working fine before? With the exception of adjusting each gas valve, and trying a...

Frigidaire LFEH3054UF

Just got this at Lowe’s and it seems to have a couple issues. It comes with a 5th burner, a warming zone. Has it’s own knob. If I turn the burner on independently it does not heat up. It will only heat up if I have one of the other 4 burners on. Instructions don’t indicate this is the only way to use this warming zone so I think it’s faulty. Another issue is my hot surface light will not turn on unless I have that warming zone on. I can boil water for 30 minutes on one of the main burners...
