Frigidaire Model FGF366BCA range Problem: Baking function & oven cleaning function stopped working, (broiler works fine).

If your Frigidaire oven's broiler unexpectedly turned on while you were baking at a low temperature, it could indicate an issue with the oven's temperature control system. Here are a few possible explanations and troubleshooting steps:

1. Incorrect oven setting: Double-check that you have selected the correct oven function and temperature settings. Ensure that you have chosen the "bake" function rather than the "broil" function. Also, verify that the temperature setting is appropriate for baking.
2. Malfunctioning temperature sensor: The oven's temperature sensor, also known as the oven thermostat, could be faulty. A malfunctioning sensor may send incorrect temperature readings to the oven control board, causing it to activate the broiler unexpectedly. Consider contacting a professional technician to inspect and potentially replace the temperature sensor if necessary.
3. Control board issue: The oven control board, which regulates various oven functions, could be experiencing a malfunction. If the control board is sending incorrect signals to the broiler, it may activate when it shouldn't. Consult a professional technician to assess and repair the control board if needed.
4. Wiring or electrical problem: Inspect the oven's wiring and electrical connections for any signs of damage or loose connections. Faulty wiring or poor electrical connections can cause erratic oven behavior. It's advisable to have a qualified technician examine the electrical components to ensure they are functioning correctly.

Hello Friend, this is Z. I am happy to assist you!

I see that both the clock and burners of your Frigidaire range are working but your oven does not bake or broil. May I have your model number please? You can normally locate the serial tag (which provides your model number) in the storage drawer, on the right side. Also, think about what may have happened prior to this occurrence. For instance, did you notice any strange functions or any other error codes prior to this issue? With this information I can better address the issue at hand.

Meanwhile, let's try resetting your range by either unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker to the off position. It is important to wait approximately ten minutes and then turn your range on. If resetting the power does not correct the issue, could you please advise me if the issue continues or provides an error code. Thank you!

I have the Frigidaire PLEB30S8CCA single wall oven. About 3 months ago the baking element appeared to have gone out. We replaced it, but still didn't work. We ended up sending our control board off to a company named Corecentric. They fixed the problem and returned it to us. The oven has worked perfectly ever since. I searched extensively for a new one, but no one sold them anymore. I found Corecentric on Ebay. They were able to confirm over the phone that it was more than likely a control board issue. It cost about $130. My husband was able to do it himself by taking a couple before px and using them when reassembling it.

Hi Chris Stewart - If the bake element and the top of the range works, but just not the heating element, then you possibly have a bad broiler element or connection. However, if you are experiencing other performance difficulties, then the control board may possibly be faulty and needs replacing. Consult a professional for an accurate diagnosis.

Hi,
The baking element is probably the problem...

Hello The control has developed faults in one or more of it's circuits. This clock/timer must be replaced to solve the problem. The Good news is that this is not one of the really expensive controls. Found this one for about 70$ at a website. Worth fixing- but beware the 'self-clean' function after repair, and this control should last a lot longer.  Please acknowledge this post if info helps- have more if needed- Thanks- Ed

We had the same thing happen and now they came and said it was the clock that needs to be replaced. They said that controls the oven. Even though clock is on and working the function for turning on the oven is not

I have a Frigidaire Model Number GLGF377ASF. The stovetop burners work just fine but the oven and broiler do not work.

I was wrong (I think).  the baking element probably was burnt out as the repairman said.  He replaced it and I thought selfclean still wasn't working.  In fact, I think I just had to give the self-clean function more time.  Also, I was judging by smell.  We have become used to a bad odor during self clean which was missing when it was broken and still missing after the repair.  Bottom line, the oven was clean after the baking element was replaced, sans smell.
