first the temperature sensor then the igniter. started to do the igniter by using common sense then I used YouTube which made it a lot faster. the temperature sensor installs from the back of the stove, the igniter installs from thr front ie, the drawer and inside oven.
I followed the video on the website. The probe is on back of the oven. Just unplug part and replace. That was not our fix all though as I later found that the igniter was not working. The igniter is also an easy fix but you access it through the front of the oven. Also an easy swap.
Oven is working great now.
Our issues kind of fell between two of the descriptions so I went with high percentage cheaper fix first.
If your oven is intermittingly getting hot or to temperature of 100, it is probably the igniter.
Have used PartsSelect for Washing Machine, Dryer, Refridgerator and now the Range. Super easy to figure out needed parts and videos walk you through the repair.
Stove was dropped and had broken, bent frame and adjuster feet
New ones fit perfectly. Take a minute to bend the frame straight. Then and I used oversize screws on the replacement parts as the drop had stripped out the screw holes of the frame.
I changed the temperature sensor and tried again. The stove again went on temp runaway and it was suggested to replace control board which is out of stock. I will have to toss out this stove and buy new as you and no else has this part.
Oven wires arced and caused the terminal block to melt and become detached from the back of the range
Removed the wires that I could, then terminal block. Installing the new terminal block was very easy; however the wires that arced were fused to the terminal bock screws and needed to be cut and new connectors had to be put on the wires to allow them to be reattached to the block safely. Once all was replaced and reinstalled the oven has worked great. The length of the repair was increased because of the melted parts and having to run to the store to get the new wire connectors big enough to fit on the wires. If we were simply replacing the block and had not encountered the melted ends, it would have been a very quick and easy repair.
oven temp was not heating up to desired temp and using an oven thermometer to confirm
moved the range out to access back removed 5 screws from back panel removed 1 screw from thermostat installed new one replaced screws, done in 20 minutes problem solved
my original part arrived and it did not fit. When I called to explain the problem I was told it was the wrong part. The big problem is... Frigidaire calls the receptacle a terminal block kit as well as a terminal block kit which is a totally different part. I tried to explain that to several different folks I spoke to at your company as well as Frigidaire but I'm not sure if I got that point across. Take a look at part # 530 393 5058 and part # 530 440 9888 and you will see that they both mention terminal block kit. Hopefully the part I am getting from Frigidaire is an OEM part and will fit.
Oven would not heat or sometimes hold heat to set temp
I was able to find the most common reason for my oven's symptom by searching online. I searched for the part I needed but was not confident that I would get the correct part until I looked on partselect.com. After verifying the part number with my owners manual and looking at the video on their website, I decided to order. PartSelect shipped the part as expected, and I was able to install it in less than 30 minutes. The only tool needed for installation was a nut driver. My oven is now working like new.
Many thanks to PartSelect for their comprehensive website and fine service.
Oven would not reach temperature or it would finally reach temp but would not stay warm.
Pulled oven away from cabinet area Unplugged oven from wall outlet Removed screws to free top panel from back of oven Removed screws to free lower panel from back of oven Probe backing was now exposed Unplugged probe from connector Removed one screw from probe housing Twisted probe housing counterclockwise then pulled probe out Reversed the process to install probe Plugged probe into connector Reversed the panel removal process Plugged oven back in to wall outlet Turned on oven and tested with no further issue
removed screws from back cover then pulled elect. plug apart. removed screw pulled out probe installed new probe put cover back on very easy only problem was that it said that 88% of time would fix the problem. will this time it didn't work oven still over heating.
