Timer for GE double oven

My analog clock/timer died on my GE double built-in oven. I ordered the replacement part WB19X10006 and installed it. The only problem I have is that the bottom oven will no longer clean. The SET light comes on; the CLEANING light comes on. But TEMP light does not come on; LOCKED does not come on; and oven never starts heating. The top oven works as it should. Is there a setting on the new part that has not been addressed for a built-in double oven??? Can anyone help me get my appliance back in the A1 condition it was in before the clock went out?

Does this oven work in a timed cook mode?

If it does not, then possible a miswiring for the lower oven.

when you will install the new one, be very careful with wires and follow the installation instructions step by step.

refridgerator quits cooling if you turn off and back on it will start cooling again enough to freeze water in ice maker and then stop cooling I have put a new relay and overload on compressor but that did not fix

I have a Whirlpool GX900QPGB Trash Compactor that I have had to replace the power switch on twice in the past six years, is this normal? Have you had other complaints regarding these switches (WPL 9871140) ? :confused:

carobe,

I’m replacing the old mechanical timer in my single GE wall oven with the WB19X10006 digital timer. I was concerned that the old timer has connections to only 3 of the 5 terminals: L1, Output 1, and neutral. L2 and Output 2 have no connections. Based on your post, I’m wondering if L2 and Output 2 are for the second oven.

Gene: any thoughts?

Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,

If you can post pictures of the old and new clocks and all available diagrams and instructions, it might help for more accurate advise.

Gene.

Here are the pictures:
The current mechanical timer, the new digital timer, and the instructions.

I believe the current connection has the pink and red wires on terminal 1(L1), the white wires on terminal 5 (N), and the orange wire on terminal 2 (Output 1). According to the instructions, these would connect on the new timer to terminals 1, 5, and 2 (respectively).

My assuption is that L2 and Output 2 would be used for the second oven, if I had one.

Does that make sense?

Thanks for your help.

Tom

Hi Tom,

You were absolutely right.

Gene.

Thanks for the consult Gene! The new timer works fine.

It will be very nice to have the self-clean function back.

Is your oven a single or double?

If it’s double, does the lower oven has self clean? Did it work with the old timer?

Gene.

I’m Deborah and I’m new here. I found this site while searching to see if a replacement timer-clock is available for my GE self-cleaning double oven JKP36 which was put in my home in 1979. The ovens work perfectly, the self-cleaning works perfectly…I need the clock & timer to work.

After reading the posts here, I’m a little confused. Has a replacement clock-timer model number been established that will correct the clock-timer not working and both ovens will still self-clean? I’d love to have this repaired!
Thanks!
Deborah

Hi Deborah,

Can you describe more specifically how did you set the self clean cycle and what did you see on the oven clock during this cycle?

What did you mean when you said: "I need the clock & timer to work"?

Gene.

Thanks so much for your reply!

The timer & clock that do not work at all are the timer that I’d use to time food when it was baking and the clock being the regular mechanical clock on the oven unit located beside the timer.

Because the clock/timer unit doesn’t work, I now must use another timepiece to keep up with how long the self-cleaning process is taking and turn it off myself rather than the oven doing it automatically.

If I activate the top self-cleaning switch (pull it out) and leave the bottom self cleaning switch alone (don’t pull it out), I can self-clean the units.
However, I must keep track of the amount of time it is working and turn it off myself.

I’m okay with self-cleaning the ovens this way (but prefer the original method), but I’d love to have the timer/clock working again for everyday use!

I called the GE company parts line yesterday and was told that for my unit I would need the WB19X5231 part that they no longer make. And from this forum, I read thatthe WB19X10006 corrected the clock/timer, but the bottom oven would no longer work in the self-cleaning mode. I think I understood that correctly. I tried to follow it on the forum. I hope that you may have a solution.

Thank you again!
Deborah

Deborah,

The new electronic clock/timer (part number [AP2633678](http://www.appliancepartspros.com/part_details.aspx?image=3&part_id=2022903&pn_=WB19X5231"]WB19X10006[/URL], APP item number [URL="http://www.appliancepartspros.com/part_details.aspx?image=3&part_id=2022903&pn_=WB19X5231)) designed by GE as a replacement for the old analog clock/timer WB19X5231. If the new clock is wired properly then it should do everything what the old clock did. Also there could be problems with alignment holes on the glass panel.

You have to choose if you are going to leave it as is, to do it yourself or to call a qualified tech to do it for you.

Gene.

Hi John,

I do not have any information regarding companies who does rebuilt analog clocks but you probably can find one over the Internet.

The electronic replacement timer comes with the instillation instructions and if you can read wiring diagrams then you probably can install them.

The model number you posted is incomplete. If you need help with the right part number for the replacement timer then we need the complete model number of the oven.

Gene.

Hi Keith,

What is the complete model number of the oven?

Gene.

Excellent – thanks Gene, I’m going to give this a try. - Keith

Keep us posted.

Gene.
