YWFE361LVS0 Whirlpool Range - Overview

Hi Julia, thank you for the question. Based on our research, the issue could be with the surface element switch. It turns the surface element on and off and controls how much heat the element produces. The right front surface element switch for your model is part number PS11740783. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

Hello Lorraine, Thank you for contacting us. Typically, this indicates an issue with the temperature inside the stove. We would recommend checking the temperature sensor and safety thermostat as well as the wiring harness. You can test the parts with a multimeter as well as checking for any visible damage. Good luck with your repair.

Hi Harsha, Thank you for your question. If the element does not turn on, you will need to check both the element and the burner switch that controls it. Before removing and testing these parts for continuity with a multimeter on the Rx1 setting to see if they are operating normally, unplug the range from the electrical outlet. First, visually check the element for signs bubbling, burning, wear, holes, or damage. If there are no visible signs of damage, use the multimeter and touch each of the terminals one at a time with one probe while holding the other probe to the outside surface of the element. If either terminal shows continuity, it is defective. To test the entire element for continuity, place each of the probes on the terminals, one on each. If get a reading outside 19 to 115 ohms, the element is defective and will need to be replaced. When checking the burner switch, check the wires for any signs of burning, or overheated wires and terminals. If no issues are found, use your multimeter touch the probes to the L1 and H1 terminals. Once you have completed that test, touch the probes to the L2 & H2 terminals. If your test results indicate that there is no continuity between one or both sets of terminals, you need a replacement infinite switch. We hope this helps!

Hi Aladin, Thank you for your question. The F2 error code is letting you know that the oven temperature is too high and the F5 error code is a control board failure. Check for welded contacts on the bake and and broil relays. If present, replace the electronic control board. For self clean models, check the door lock operation. Also, check the sensor, the sensor harness, and the sensor harness connection at sensor and oven control. Also check for any causes of high resistance in the oven temperature sensor circuit. The oven control board measures resistance of the sensor circuit, not the actual oven temperature. We hope this helps! If you have any questions, please let us know.
