GE model PLT083-2. Can I get a manual for this? I seem to be doing something wrong with the self cleaning oven - two areas don't clean. Can I put ANY of the stove (top) parts in the oven for cleaning when I clean the oven? Should the oven racks be left in or taken out? (I bought the house with this range already in it. No idea if Kenmore, label on oven says GE I would like to see/read / get / buy a users/ owners manual for this.

Unlock GE JB550GJ - Manual Self-Clean Latch

Self cleaning programs break things 80% of the time. You should never ever use that cycle. 650'F is too brutal to elements, fans, latches and circuit boards that are above the oven. I have never known one with a manual latch.

You need a new stove or a GE Technician service call.

Even parts seem hard to come by if that model number is correct.

I have a gas XL-44 Spectra GE oven. How do I use the self-cleaning feature. Do I just press the Self-Clean button and just wait for it to finish. I would appreciate your help.

Using self clean can harm stoves. I don't recommend it.

The LOC on messsage appears on the screen when we go toturn the oven on. NEED the OVEN. What could we do to fi it?

The control lock has been activated. This feature is useful when you are cleaning the panel so that you don't accidently start the oven or the self-cleaning cycle. Try pressing Bake and Broil Hi/Lo together for 2 seconds (or a bit longer). SF should appear in the display. Then press Self Clean and Start. (When you press Self Clean the LOC message should disappear.)

Manuals for most GE appliances are available here: http://www.geappliances.com/service_and_support/literature/ . Enter the model number and click Submit. The direct link to the manual for the JTP18WWWW is: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=981140017.PDF .

I hope this helps.

How much time to leave on self cleaning...clock does no work

Depending on the condition of the oven, it could take up to 4 hours.

I ran the auto self clean on my oven last week for the first time and it set automatically for 3 1/2 hours. (It stunk, but it worked.)

A couple things to remember is: (1) Make sure you do not turn the light on inside the oven. The clean cycle should disable it. (2) Lock the door if it does not lock itself. (3) Do not open the door during the clean cycle.

Remember the self cleaning temperature is extremely high. Do not allow children in the area while doing it.

Oven wont turn on.

I tried several times to get my oven to work and nothing seemed to help. After downloading the manual from this site, my husband locked and unlocked the oven door several times very hard and it knocked something in place and now my oven works. I hope it works for you.

Hi

To remove the main top:
1. Lift the front of the main top and disengage the lift and lock rods.
2. Lift the top up and forward.
3. Slide a putty knife between the main top and the control panel to disengage the hold down clips, one on each end.
Hope this helps... Please post back with complete model# if you need more information.
