    Common range repair parts you may need

    Replacing one of these range parts may fix your problem.

    Electronic Control Board Replacement

    When the electronic control board of a range becomes inoperative, it can result in various malfunctions, such as power loss or heating issues in the oven or surface element, or the oven failing to deactivate. This is because the board serves as the command center for the range, overseeing crucial operations such as temperature regulation, fan operation, and cooking duration. If the electronic control board malfunctions, it disrupts communication among various components. A defective board may also emit unusual sounds like chattering or clicking, accompanied by a burning smell. Given its potential impact on multiple components, it's advisable to have a Sears Home Services professional conduct diagnostic tests on the board to determine if replacement is warranted.


    Control Panel Replacement

    If a range control panel is not working, it might not respond at all or display anything, making it impossible to use. You won't be able to set cooking temperatures, use different modes, or activate features like timers or lights. Sometimes, a faulty control panel might show error codes or lights that flicker. It could also make strange noises like clicking or chattering. A malfunctioning control panel can mess up communication with other parts, which affects how the range works.

    Power Supply Replacement

    If the power supply board is not functioning, the range will be unable to power up. This is due to the power supply in a range connecting the incoming power from the cord to the internal components, and transferring power from the control board to the oven. A defective power supply may disrupt the display on the control panel and fail to safeguard the range from power surges, potentially leading to damage to electronic components like the main control board. If your range isn't powering up, it's advisable to have a Sears Home Services professional inspect it and replace the power supply board if necessary.

    What to expect when you experience a range display not working issue

    How is the display not working problem resolved?

    While most display not working problems are resolved by replacing the electronic control board, control panel or power supply, there may be other reasons. A thorough diagnosis by a qualified technician is key to fixing the problem.

    What to consider with a range display not working diagnosis

    Identifying issues with modern appliances can present considerable difficulties for those without adequate expertise and training. Addressing range problems without employing accurate diagnostic techniques may result in ineffective repairs characterized by trial and error. With significant advancements in appliance technology over the past decade, contemporary models now incorporate intricate electronic components that pose substantial challenges for troubleshooting. Consequently, do-it-yourself repairs on modern appliances have become increasingly challenging.
