All Installation Instructions for Whirlpool Range SF315PEKT0

Broken handle on oven

The repair was quite simple. All I had to do was unscrew the five screws to remove the old handle, line up the new handle and screw it in. I was once again able to use my oven without fear of the glass falling out and breaking every time I opened the door.

Oven was overheating and locking the door. Codes indicated the temperature sensor could be the issue.

Only one screwdriver needed for this simple repair. Unfortunately for me it did not repair my oven and a new code on the oven indicated a bigger problem with computer board.
Part Select was great to work with and accepted a return and promptly refunded me for the part.
Thank you!

Stove got way too hot

Took the back off the stove, removed 2 screws, unclipped the bad sensor, clipped the new one on, put the screws back in and the back of the stove back on and that was it - 10 minutes

Igniter was failing to get hot enough to ignite the gas.

It was a very simple repair pulled the old ignitor, and installed the new one in under 15 minutes. It was nice that it was a factory original part and matched perfectly. The wiring plug matched so no need to cut the plug and get ceramic wire nuts. The ignitor works perfectly and gets white hot rather than dark orange, the gas ignites in 20 seconds compared to 90 seconds.

oven will not lite.

this is the easiest repair possible. take out bottom drawer.. disconnect power cord. igniter is above burner grid.remove the two screws {be careful not to lose them}. move stove out from wall. from behind stove remove three small screws holding tin cover. and unplug the connector..install new igniter from under stove and plug in connector. install tin cover and move stove back in. replace bottom drawer. and plug in power. replacement saved the repair cost or replacement of a new stove..

The side trim on the glass door needed to be replaced.

After we put the latch pins in, the door was easily lifted off. We placed the door on the table and unscrewed the trim pieces. The new trim pieces went into place after we cleaned the door. We slipped the door back on the oven and removed the hinge pins.

Oven door glass not secured at bottom; when opened, glass swings out and catches against broiler drawer, preventing oven door from fully opening.

1. Make sure oven is off and completely cool.
2. Remove any towels, potholders, etc from handle or oven face.
3. Lay out large bath towel or blanket flat on floor nearby.
4. Open oven door partially (45° angle or less).
5. Remove 3 screws securing oven door upper trim. These screws also go through the side trim pieces. Set the screws and the upper trim aside.
6. Push tops of side trim pieces out just far enough that they are not against the side of the oven door glass. Do NOT fully remove the side trim.
5. Remove 2 screws securing handle and glass from the rest of the door. Set these aside, separate from the oven door upper trim and screws.
6. CAREFULLY lift glass (handle still attached) vertically from door assembly and place on large bath towel, preferably handle side against the towel to keep towel fibers out of oven door interior.
7. Close oven door.
8. Place clip(s) in lower door edge slots (this part is fairly straightforward, as the clips only fit one way, with the u channel facing upright and outward).
9. Retrieve oven door glass and place bottom edge of glass into the u channel of the chips.
10. Carefully open oven door. You can brace the handle with your knee to keep everything aligned as you secure the handle screws back in place.
11. Move the side trim pieces back against the glass sides.
12. Realign the oven door upper trim and secure it with its screws. The outer screws will go through the side trim pieces as well.

burned oven bulb

The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.
