Whirlpool Ovens - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

Never ever use the Self Cleaning Feature. Its main function of to break things like elements, door looks and frazzle control boards. That keeps the maker is steady sales of spares. My old Ge Stove is from the mid 1970s. Of course they don't make them like that any more. They are non-electronic, so only elements can fail. You can check elements for continuity with a multimeter and replace them. If you fancy a new one, get one but never use the self cleaning feature and it will indeed last you 30 years.

Never ever use the features of a Self Cleaning Oven. We see the damage they do here on Fixya, and the worst is the door not unlocking, and the most expensive is when they fry the mainboard. They all have a door interlock. If you were to open it when it was running, it would frizz your eyebrows!

if wiring ok possible weak ignitor

Check the elements for continuity with a multimeter. Sometimes the connectors draw too much current and can burn out as well. Both are easy tests. A runaway temperature can make elements fail because there is no thermostatic control, they just glow bright yellow..

error f1 is shown when there is a problem in the control panel

Greetings, This might indicate a bad keypad or that the cable connecting the keypad to the chip board within your whirlpool has come loose. You might need to work with whirlpool to see if they keypad needs replacing or if the internal chip board itself is faulty. Thank you.

the time? You can turn off the clock display from the oven's control panel. Look for a setting that says "Clock" or "Time of Day" and set it to OFF. If you don't have this option on your oven, contact the manufacturer directly and they will be able to help you.

To be honest, it sounds like you purchased a secondhand, faulty appliance. Although it might be loose connections due to the move, the most likely issue would be the main board and due to the price of them, that is often a good enough reason to buy a new stove. https://www.google.com/search?q=Whirlpool+gr478lxpq1+stove Error messages are normally searchable, but not that one. Take it back or call out a Whirlpool Service engineer to diagnose, fix and set it up. It is a sorry tale and not an easy one to fix. https://www.google.com/search?q=Whirlpool+gr478lxpq1+stove+AM71+UI42EEWET+107 ..

Check on ebay they have companys that sell replacemnt parts .

possible shorted ignitor replace first unplug then try if doesnt pop circuit then replace

The capacitor on the back of the display is failing. Heat warms up the gel inside it. The capacitor can be replaced by an electronics tech or you can buy a new control board display..

It sounds like a control board issue, or the power supply that feeds the control board. They are expensive so professional diagnosis and replacement is advised.

Remove the display and on the back you will see a capacitor. It needs replacing.

If the button in question is on the top left of the control panel, this is for Automatic Convection Bake. This is the control panel picture, http://www.youserguide.com/wiki/Whirlpool_Use_and_Care_Guide_-_9782476-011 ; the word Convection is below the top pair of buttons with Auto to the left. Set the oven temperature to the regular setting for your food. The oven will reduce the temperature to the appropriate temperature for baking with the convection fan running. You do need to check the food more frequently. See http://www.youserguide.com/wiki/Whirlpool_Use_and_Care_Guide_-_9782476-016 . I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

Since the sensor is new, I'd check the wiring between the sensor and the control board. You need to check for any breaks (loss of continuity). Check the connections for the wiring harness for bent pins or corrosion. (If you want to rule out a bad sensor, unplug it. Then check the resistance across the pins. Also check for a short between the sensor case and each of the two pins.) If the sensor and wiring are good, then the control board is probably faulty. Unfortunately, that part isn't available at most sites. There may be some rare places that rebuild or have re-manufactured the electronic control. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

We bought this oven too for our newly renovated home, we used it for six days before it failed due to an electronic error (F6E6: Appliance Manager 1 Board Communication). After a failed warranty repair attempt and multiple phone calls/complaints we eventually got Whirlpool to agree to give us a new oven. We had to wait six MONTHS for this new oven to arrive due to it being out of manufacture. Our second oven arrived and worked for 8 weeks until this weekend, it failed again with an F6E6 error! Now to try and get it repaired replaced! There is obviously something wrong with the electronic design or poor-quality components are being used. We strongly recommend you do not buy this oven. We bought a matching combi oven from the same range which means we have to stick with this oven or we will end up with ovens that don't match in a brand new kitchen!

E1 F3 indicates that the control board isn't getting information from the oven temperature sensor. The temperature sensor, the control board or the wiring between the two could be the problem. (For a double oven, this would apply to the lower oven.) Unplug the appliance (or turn off at the circuit breaker). After a minute, try turning it back on. If the error recurs, turn off power again. Check the resistance across the temperature sensor. At room temperature, it should be around 1800 Ohm. Replace if the resistance is significantly different. Check the wiring harness for corrosion at the connectors and continuity on all wires. Replace the wiring if there is any damage. (You can try cleaning the pins gently. Make sure none of the pins are bent.) If the wiring and temperature sensor are fine, then the control board is faulty. Replace the control board. I hope this helps. Please post a comment with the model number of your range/oven for a parts diagram. The model number will be on the door frame or on the frame for the oven drawer. Cindy Wells
