Amana arg7102w P1143347NW not maintaining temp

Good morning,

I've been struggling with my Amana gas stove.

Went to cook a pizza in it a while back, check on it after it's time to cook and it wasn't anywhere near cooked.

What I've done so far:

I've tested/checked temps throughout the range with a precision temp data logger. I'd start at 200 and go up in increments of 25 degrees F for 10-15 minutes, record the temp and adjust the oven up another 25F.... The readings will usually be pretty accurate until I get up closer to 400F and higher. Then the temp drops off and stays steady at 280-285F.

I've changed the bake igniter as well as the temp sensor to new ones thinking that they seem to be the usual culprits and inexpensive/easy fixes but I still end up with the same result.

As I'm typing this, I'm questioning, is there a separate burner underneath for the broiler and if so, does the broiler kick in to assist oven function when the temps get over a certain level? Maybe it's igniter for the broiler? I have not tried running the broiler alone to see if that works.

Otherwise, the gas stove top works. The display with the clock and timer works. The igniter (old/new) lights up bright yellow and does ignite the burner when turned on...

Just trying to figure out what to do before order anything else. I plan on pulling the the whole thing apart in the near future for further diagnostic fun. I figure next would be to further check all of the connections and check the control board to make sure that looks good...

It seemed like a simple temp sensor failure but of course, that wasn't it. Then reading up on it, igniter seemed very likely, that if the amperage was too low, that the valve wouldn't open to allow burner to fire up which it does up to the higher temps so that seems to indicate it's not that.

Just kinda lost, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank,
Chris

Electrolux EW30EW55GS1 Bake mode not working. No error codes

Bake temp will not hold

Electrolux convection wall oven, model EW30EW55GS1

The bake temp on this oven does not hold, yet, other heat functions do operate. As a reference, I am using the Electrolux service manual 318-202-104, it’s the one that came up when entering the model number. The owner has a user manual 318 205 130, and shows a different control panel. The service literature states that this oven has three elements; bake (lower), broil, (upper) and convection (rear). In reality, this oven does not have a lower bake element.

I cycled the breaker to see if any error codes came up. No error codes.

Using a temperature probe on my meter I monitored each of the functions with the following results:
• Bake: set at 350. First rise reached 366 degrees and then did not turn back on. Control panel indicated all elements and fans cycling: bottom heat, top heat and rear heat. Oven cooled to 200. End test.
• Broil: set 550. First rise reached 607. The oven cycled to 500, 483, 537
• Convection Bake: set to 350. First rise reached 367, cycle at 325.

Findings: Top and rear heat elements working. Oven temp probe seems to be working in convection modes and broil, rear fan and blower functional. I did not check door lock. At this point I suspect it could be the controller, auxiliary board or the glass panel. Without EOC fault codes, I’m not sure which board to target. The literature states that the auxiliary board controls the convection element and the blower speeds, those components appear to work. The EOC controls the bake, broil, preheat, convection bake and convection roast modes. Bake mode does not heat but convection bake does.
The boards are pricey so I don’t want to experiment by swapping out boards.
Given that I could only find one service manual for this model, which by the way shows a different controller than the one on the unit, and the oven does not come equipped with a bake element, , I’m suspecting that I don’t have the correct reference for the controller diagnostics. Suggestions?

Stovetop -control panel black paint worn off

The face is painted black with white lettering for the various knob positions.
The stovetop is about 30 years old. I googled the Model No. 82JK-K-2 and the part-the control panel- is not available. Paint this panel black, polish it, etc.?
Your advice and suggestions is appreciated-thanks!

Samsung Electric Range shot flame from back

Model number reads NE595R0ABSR/AA
Background: This is my first post here, but looking for help. Didn't much in a search yet. I've owned this oven for a little over 3 years. My girlfriend and I don't cook every night but cook Pizzas, and make mac n cheese on the stove top. I don't think i've ever used the convection Bake.

So last night, my girlfriend turned the far left knob to turn on a burner when there was a loud POP. I was not in the room but she described a flame coming from the back. It got her hand a little and also made little black burn specs on the wall. Sounded like something electrical. It also popped the breaker for the range. I did not try turning it back on. I am an IT guy and have quite a bit of experience with hardware and motherboards, so I took the back panel off. I really don't see any burn marks or any wires that look frayed. Maybe i'm not looking for the right thing.

This is the burner knob (I had already taken the screws out to remove it)

KitchenAid Range

I have an ongoing problem with the oven part of my range. When I turn it on, it goes on. But when it has to relight to maintain temperature (especially below 300 degrees), it will light sometimes and sometimes it just cycles through the igniter clicking without lighting. It's very hard to walk away from dinner when it's in there as I can come back and oven temp has dropped down below 100 degrees. Sometimes shutting off and resetting temp and hitting on will relight, sometimes not.
Any thought out there.
Thanks in advance,
John

Dacor Oven - How to remove PCB from mounting post?

My Dacor oven has a relay PCB attached to a metal backboard using about 8 mounting posts similar the below. I wish to remove and replace the relay board. How do I remove the PCB? Using my fingers (which are getting bloody in the process), I can compress each post, but then when I do the next, the previous ones reattaches. Thanks!
