Whirlpool Oven SF315PEMW1 Oven Died in middle of Thanksgiving Turkey, Stovetop still works. Control board Display Dead, 3 Capacitors Burst. Installed new Control Board, simple install 2 screws (not counting back cover) 3 unique connectors. Lights up with 12:00 displayed for time. Keypad responds as expected to all input. beeps when keys pressed. up down keys change time, timer and temp. Set time to 11:28 (Accurate at the time), hit start flashing : goes steady 20 min later time still shows 11:28 Set timer to 5:00 hit start - stays at 5:00 Set oven to 350, hit start, time shows 10:00 (preheat time) stays at 10:00 oven does not start tried broiler display shows 510 (temp?) oven does not start. I tried many variations of keystrokes, even read the manual, but it seemed the timer never started therefore none of the subsequent functions were initiated. At this point I assumed the DIY conclusion "They sent me a bad part" They overnighted a new board, Same results. Further aimless troubleshooting - No error codes ever displayed Tried unplugging then re plugging checked voltage in -123vAC Unplugged Oven connector leaving power to Board ( No change) Could this be 2 bad boards with the same defect - Unlikely Could this be operator error - yes, but what could I be missing??? Could this be installed incorrectly? I guess! but the wiring harness is pretty foolproof, 3 unique connectors only fit one way Could it be the wrong part? Possible but not likely, although the display is an exact match for the original boards, they are pretty obviously a different revision of the board (no longer uses the 3 capacitors that were on the old board). But this is the part number recommended when doing a part search by model number, and the part is packaged with "Whirlpool Corp Factory certified parts" Any thoughts or questions, please reply
