Hello,
This
error code on a oven indicates a keypad short on the
Electronic Range Control (ERC) board. This is the clock/timer on the
operator console. The recommended fix is to replace the ERC. You can
generally find replacement parts at these websites:
searspartsdirect.com pcappliancerepair.com appliancepartspros.com repairclinic.com
All these sites offer great service with competitive pricing, so shop and compare.
Replacing an ERC is not a difficult repair and can be accomplished by
the average do-it-yourselfer. If you decide to order the part and wish
to repair this on your own, follow these steps:
1. UNPLUG the range. Dangerous voltage is still present inside even with the range turned off.
2. Pull the range away from the wall and turn the unit around so you can access the rear panel.
3. Remove the screws on the back of the operator console.
4. Carefully disconnect the connector plugs to the ERC. Take note of
how they are connected, so that you can reinstall them correctly.
NOTE: The connectors are usually color coded with the colors printed on
the circuit board. However, if the colors are not printed on the board,
write them down. (A digital camera also comes in real handy for this).
5. With the connectors removed, remove the mounting screws to the ERC and the assembly will come out.
NOTE: Most replacement ERC boards do not come with the overlay. This is
the plastic pre-printed number display. The overlay can easily be
peeled off and re-used. Just make sure you properly orient the overlay
so that you don't inadvertently place it on the new board upside down.
If your existing overlay is damaged, you will need to order separately.
6. Install new ERC using the steps provided in reverse order. Minimize
handling the new circuit board with your bare hands to avoid damaging
the board.
If you have any questions about this repair, please post back with you
complete model number, so that I may be able to provide you with
better assistance. I hop this information helps you.
