Problem started with the oven shutting off occasionally. Then progressed to all the time. Replaced the oven igniter problem cleared for a couple of days the resurfaced. Read repair site forum and they suggested 2 possible fixes. One was to replace the electronics unit (checked and none were available). the 2nd was to replace the thermistor or heat sensor in the oven. Took the electronic control panel to an electronics repair shop and the technician said he inspected the board components and found none were blown but id say he found some bad solder joints. Reinstalled the control unit and focused on the temperature sensor. The repair forum indicated that there should be 1080 ohms resistance on this sensor ( which there was) but during testing I noticed one of the wires was loose in the connector. Replaced the unit with a new one and oven is working properly.
