A Frigidaire range in Uniontown was experiencing a confusing problem — the bake feature wasn’t working properly, and when turned on, it started broiling instead of baking at the entered temperature. Our diagnosis revealed a control board failure, but unfortunately parts are no longer available for this model.
The Problem
The customer reported that the bake feature was not working in the oven. When turned on, the unit starts broiling instead of baking at the entered temperature.
Diagnosis
After testing the oven’s operation, we determined the control board is bad. The faulty control board was sending incorrect signals to the heating elements, causing the broil element to activate instead of the bake elements when bake mode was selected.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: None — parts not available
- Work performed: Diagnosis and testing
- Result: Control board confirmed faulty, replacement parts unavailable
Is It Worth Repairing?
When parts are no longer available from the manufacturer, repair becomes impossible regardless of the appliance’s age or condition. Frigidaire ranges typically have good parts availability during their production run and several years after, but eventually discontinued models reach end-of-life status. In this case, replacement is the only option.
Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Ranges
- Keep the control panel clean and dry to prevent moisture damage to electronic components
- Avoid slamming the oven door, which can jar internal connections over time
- Use the self-clean cycle sparingly — high heat can stress control boards and sensors
