This is a 5 years old Canadian made range (model: CPES389AC1, S/N:NF
14705526). It worked just fine until now. Not anymore. The broiler and
bake elements not producing heat. After checking, they are OK. The
convection element and its fan works. There is light in the oven. Oven
control board's shows all functions, close door it oven set to
self-cleaning mode. Clock is OK. No error code.

Turns out this model is quite unique, because none of the parts retailers
contacted knows a model with AC1 ending. Being an amateur
would like to find out the part number for the heat sensor (3" long) and
the control board (made by Spitfire Control Inc. Model: 31818390)assuming
that one of these parts is the culprit. Which might or not be true.

Any idea would be appreciated,
Tony Hwang

Hi,
Checked fuse or something equivalent?

Hello Tony,

House main panel fuses are OK. According to the schematic diagram,
downloaded from Frigidaire website for this model, shows only 1 thermal
circuit breaker for the temperature probe.
Meantime Sears give me the part numbers (sensor: 970316217002) and the
"timer" (hopefully it is the EOC's number): 970318183603N
After taking apart the front of the range-where the EOC is located-the tab
on the EOC reads: Spitfire Control Inc. Model No.: 318183900. While this
is only of this man nitpicking interest: where the part numbers come
from?
By the way: resetting the range (disconnecting) gives no error code either.


To do:
1. How to test the temperature probe
2. How to test the EOC

Any other idea?

Thanks for your trouble.
