The over that came with our new house recently quit working after it’s first self cleaning cycle. The oven is a Whirlpool Accubake wall unit than is about 10 months old. All the buttons seem to work perfectly as does the clock and timer, just no heat. Because we closed on the house a few months before we moved in, Whirlpool is not honoring their 1 year warranty so I’m stuck getting it fixed or fixing it. The two repair men I had looking at it suspect either the control board ($300 repair) or the thermostat ($150 repair). I’m fairly handy so unless its a dangerous/difficult repair I’m confident I can do it myself. Any ideas? Thanks

Update: I decided before buying a new control board I’d disconnect the power and wait a few days to see if the computer reset. Initially it looked promising. But once I started a baking cycle and quickly turned it off, it continued to heat. Oh well time for a new control board…
Well I just replaced the control board after replacing the thermostat 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately the oven STILL want to stay on once I put it into bake mode. If I flip the breaker and reset the oven the oven doesn’t heat but when I start a heat cycle that’s when it stays hot even after cancelling the bake cycle. MW, you mentioned that your thermostat was "open" was that something you tested for? Could I have ruined my new thermostat connecting it to a bad board? Any way to tell?
