I have a Whirlpool double oven and the model number is RBD305PDB8. I have had the control board replaced once before and now I am told that it has been discontinued and that I would have to have someone rebuild mine. I need to know how to remove it so that I can take it to get it rebuilt. Could someone please help me.
Thanks

You will have to join the site to download the manual but it is free and has a wealth of information for the appliance DIYer.
He might want to check that thermal fuse in the back, and be sure it is not blown!! Tom http://www.applianceeducator.com
Thank you so much for your suggestions…I will try that.
Have a Great weekend!!
You may want to post the problem/symptoms if you are not sure that it is the control board.
As with anything electronic I would remove power from the unit for 10 minutes or so just to see if it will reset.
Also there may be a thermal fuse in the control console, see page 3-2 in the manual.

Make a record of where all the wires go. Remove wires (Ribbon has a plastic keeper; squeeze ends and lift up. Push in tabs on front and back to release the board.
