CALIBRATION

To check oven calibration:
1. Place a thermometer or thermocouple in the center
of the oven.
2. Program the oven temperature for 350°F. Allow the
oven to cycle three times.
3. Average the highest and lowest reading. The average
should be within 10°F of 350°F.
To change the calibration:
1. Touch the bake pad on the control, and using the up
arrow set the oven temperature to maximum of
500°F.
2. Within 3 seconds touch and hold the bake pad
(about 5 seconds) until "00" appear in the display.
Note:
If any numbers other than "00" appear in
the display, the control has been calibrated
in the field before.
3. By using the up or down arrows the calibration
temperature can be changed + or - 35°F.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The control for the 36" self-cleaning gas range has some
self diagnostics built into the microprocessor to help in
troubleshooting the system. When a failure occurs one
of three codes will appear in all the display windows: F1,
F3 or door.

F1 code:

F1 indicates a malfunction in the control itself, and the
control should be replaced.

F3 code:

F3 indicates a defective sensor, electronic oven control
or the wiring in between. To determine which part is
defective:
1. Disconnect the 8 pin plug from the back of the oven
control that connects the sensor to the oven control.
2. With an Ohmmeter measure the resistance between
pins 1 and 2 in the plug (not on the control board).
If the meter reads around the value of the oven
temperature sensor resistance chart the oven control
is defective. If the meter reads less than 800 Ohms
or more than 3000 Ohms, go to step 3.

350 ± 5.4
450 ± 6.9
550 ± 8.2
650 ± 9.6
900 ± 13.6
3. Disconnect the harness from the oven sensor and
measure the resistance of the oven sensor. If the
reading is the same as that in step two the oven
sensor is defective. If the reading is correct with
the chart the harness is defective.

"door" Code:

When the word "door" appears in the display when the
oven is programmed for clean this means the control
thinks the lock switch is open.
1. Make sure the latch handle is in the latch position.
2. Disconnect power from the range and go to the back
of the control and disconnect the eight pin plug.
3. Measure the resistance between pins 5 and 7. If
the meter reads zero the control is defective. If the
meter reads infinity the lock switch or the wires from
the control to the lock are open.
4. Remove the cover from the rear of the range and
disconnect the wires from the latch switch. Measure
the resistance between the terminals of the lock
switch. If the meter reads zero the wires from the
control to the lock switch are open. If the meter
reads infinity the switch is defective.

Control will not program:

If the control will not program check for an open sensor
circuit. If the sensor circuit is good replace the control.

Blank display:

If the display on the oven control is blank, with the range
connected to electrical power:
1. Go to the back of the control, and measure the
voltage drop between terminals E1 and E2 . If the
meter reads line to neutral voltage (120 VAC) the
control is defective. If the meter reads zero the
wiring in the range is defective.
