THERMAL FUSE BLOWN ON KITCHEN AID KCO100508
Thermal fuse is a one time safety device, order by specification. My Kitchen Aid toaster oven has one on the side with the controls marked 206c for 206 degrees Celcius when it blows, and marked with a part number that when Googled was found to be 2 amp. The fuse blows in this sequence: temperature first, then if that fails the regular fuse action will kill the circuit at 2 amps. I called electronic supply places around Los Angeles. $1. 25 later I have my part. Mouser electronics carries them for .44 cents. Placed the new one on the ceramic base of the old one, and am back to using my favorite toaster oven. Will not be using it for broiling again - that is when it got hot and quit on me.

The toast part works but the bake and broil does
We've got the same problem and I just took ours apart.
Bad news: I'm pretty sure it's the circuit board. It's not the timer knob, and I'm almost positive it's not the upper selector knob. Most of the components on the circuit board are only used for the "bake" mode to regulate temperature. The board is marked, "128301 Timer PCB". I looked into whether one can buy a replacement board from Kitchenaid, but it's not on their parts list. If I had to guess, I'd say it's the relay on the board, but it's only a guess. Shoddy components, plus it gets hot in there and "bakes" the board. The little fan in the side isn't part of the "convection." It's for cooling off the circuit board. Don't laugh.
Even worse, next to the thermostat on ours, there's a little rubber insulator that's burnt to a crisp. The connection under this insulator was also loose. It hasn't affected functionality, but it doesn't instill confidence in the design. Kind of scary. Unplug this unit when not in use!
Only a one year warranty. I think we now have an expensive toaster.

TIMER KNOB IS BROKEN
I've had the same problem. I checked out the Kitchen Aid website, called the toll-free number listed on the site (800-541-6390), and talked to a very pleasant and helpful customer service representative. She said she would be sending a free replacement knob that would arrive in 7 to 10 days. It may sound ominous, but if ya can't fix ya, ya gotta replaceya!

Where do I find a
If you mean the time KNOB, then you are in luck. Sears can supply this for you either by internet "searspartsdirect" or any sears repair parts outlet. Also, on the internet, "repair clinic" can supply this for you. If the problem is the timer control, then you cannot get a replacement part; you must send the entire appliance to the repair center as indicated in the manual.

KitchenAid toaster oven Mod# KC010058
The overload switch is located above the theromostat.To check it put a jumper across the switch and plug the unit in. If the switch is bad you will now see the red light on and the oven will work. Take the switch off and gently pry the 4 posts back. Remove the pin, gently put it in a vise and put a drop of solder on top of the metal cap. Put the switch back togther, install it and you should be back in operation.
