replaced it

Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.

Took 3 panels off to get to the electric block. Replaced electrical block and put it back together. Still no change.

Just had to remove the carousel tray and replace the drive bushing. And we were back in business.

Finally figured out after many months that all I needed to do was to get online and order the part. Part quickly arrived and within seconds I was back in business.

Easy as 1-2-3

Really a no brainer, but I do have to say that PartSelect customer service is excellent. My part was located and on it's way within a day and arrived a couple of days later.

Removed 2 screws holding old temperature sensor inside the oven and gently pulled out the wire till the connector came through the hole. Disconnected old probe and attached new one. Fished the wire back in the hole and replaced the two screws. Then followed the operating instructions for calibrating the oven. Ended up setting it +5 degrees. So far, works great.

WELL, I ordered 2 of the tray drive bushings, thank God, because 1 shaft was too short. AND wouldn't even reach the glass tray, although part numbers were identical. So, I took the old broken drive bushing and sanded off the broken end, turned it upside down and glued the new bushing to it. Reaches the glass tray perfectly now, and as long as I don't put overweight bowls of water etc on it, it may last longer this time,, the drive bushings don't really go on the gear as well as they should-length wise- and any weight that stalls the turntable puts a tremendous strain on the plastic notched part of the bushing shaft

Moved the stove away from the wall, unhooked the electric cord and the gas pipe. In the oven, undid the two screws holding the probe. Removed two screws and removed the electrical cover panel from the stove back, disconnected the quick connect to the probe and pulled the probe from the oven. Reversding the proceedures, put the new probe into the oven, hooked up the quick connect and replaced the electrical panel cover. From the front, reinstalled the probe with the two screws, reconnected the gas and the power cord and put the stove back into position. It works just fine now!

Trashed the old roller tray and put the new one in. Fast shipping, and dependable company to do business with. Thanks

Googled the problem and found Oven Temperature Sensor and Main Terminal Block to be the most likely problems. Turned out to be neither. No parts were needed. Oven has a thermal overload switch on the rear upper left. Thermal overload needed re-set. To do so you have to remove the oven, remove the back and press the red button on thermal overload. Biggest challenge was figuring out how to remove the oven. Even with the installation manual it was not easy to fgure out. The instructions are misleading. You need a special tool. I used two hacksaw blades as a substitute, and slid them in to release the clips. Once you figure out how to get the oven out the rest is simple.
