Default Oven will not heat up

board could burn up too. If it was a $25 part, that wouldn't
be so bad. But when you see what a new board actually
costs, you may want to re-evaluate how to proceed. Hell,
when you see what that board costs and depending on the
age of the stove, it might be time for a new stove.


It seems that is the way it is for many things. The replacement parts cost
a big percentage of just replacing the whole unit.

I still think of the deal that the Commodor computer company had years ago.
They wold fix any computer for about $ 75. When it got the the repair
place, they would open it up and replace the whole insides with a board that
cost them about $ 50. I just don't remember what the computer cost back
then.
